It’s summer and you deserved vacations! You maybe start asking yourself what you should or shouldn’t put in your suitcase. Space is limited and you must choose the most essential things well without leaving any behind. Today we bring you our top 5 of fundamental things that you should not forget to put in your suitcase this summer.

Sunglasses

Sunglasses are more than a compliment, they will protect your eyesight and you will be able to fight against the excess of sun. Also wearing glasses favor your appearance and it is a trend this summer. From cat-eye glasses, aviator style, sports or ‘all-lens’ type, look for your most avant-garde style this summer while you are enjoying the sunny climate of Tenerife.

Sunscreen

As we mentioned in our post about the importance of using sunscreen, it protects your skin from the sun’s ultraviolet rays. It is advisable to use these products regardless of skin color. Protection against UV rays is essential throughout the year, not only in summer, as this can help us prevent the possibility of contracting skin cancer. Check the maximum amount you can carry in your luggage and avoid having to leave it behind at the airport.

Book

From your plane trip to the long days of rest in the pool, we believe that there should always be a space in your suitcase for a good book. Black novels, books of poetry, fantasy, biographies … The literature likes are changing and depend a lot on the reading scenario, but you will surely find a copy that can help you to get away from the pool noise or to fall asleep.

Comfortable clothes

Dresses, denim skirts, blouse, tops, jeans or summer kimonos, are some of the fashion items this summer. With them, you will enjoy the appropriate comfort to be able to perform all kinds of activities and, when the night comes, turn your look into a versatile, vaporous and with movement. No doubt, comfortable clothes to travel and take on your summer vacation.

Espadrilles

Espadrilles are one of the favorite shoes in the summer season. It is the ideal element for those who want to go for a walk, get to know the island or go to the beach. Being a closed shoe, they are ideal to combine with any outfit since they transform a basic style into a modern look.

One of the main reasons why every year millions of tourists come to the paradisiacal Canary Islands is the good weather, without a doubt, it is a destination of the sun. But do we take the necessary precautions to protect ourselves from the sun?

Today we bring you some of the fundamental reasons why you should use sunscreen during the time you are exposed to the sun. This measure not only helps prevent premature wrinkling or skin spots but also more worrisome pathologies such as the possibility of contracting skin cancer.

Sunscreen protects your skin from the ultraviolet rays of the sun. It is advisable to use these products regardless of skin colour. The protection against UV rays is fundamental throughout the year, not only in summer, since, as we anticipated, this can help us to prevent the possibility of contracting skin cancer.

Another one of the possible effects derived from a long exposure to the sun is the premature ageing of the skin. Although there are processes that we can not avoid, the use of sunscreen helps to delay the appearance of wrinkles or spots as much as possible. Remember that your brown skin is temporary, but the health of your skin is for life. Applying sun protection should become a routine as important as brushing your teeth.

How long is the effect of sunscreen?

The indicator that warns us of the protection time is called SPF. It is an index that tells us the ability of sunscreen against the sun’s rays. For example, if our skin normally burns in 15 minutes, with a sunscreen with SPF30 you will burn in 30 x 15 = 450 minutes. That is 7’5 hours.

You have to use a bronzer that at least has an SPF of 15 to 30, with 50 being the most protected. Dermatologists advise applying the cream half an hour before exposure to the sun so that the skin absorbs the cream.

Finally, in addition to using sunscreen, we must decrease our exposure to UV rays during the hours of maximum sun-penetration (12-15pm), we can use umbrellas, hats, sunglasses or drink plenty of fluids. Do not forget that in addition to protecting your skin, you can also use protection for your lips and hair as a preventive measure.

We believe that with these simple tips you can enjoy a pleasant holiday in Vanilla Garden without exposure to the sun will be a problem.
