Although most people love the warmth and light of the sun, too much sun exposure can significantly damage human skin. The sun's heat will dry out areas of unprotected skin and uses up the skin's supply of natural lubricating oils.
The sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation can cause burning and long-term changes in the skin's structure, such as causing wrinkles, dark spots and other skin conditions.
