It looks like the woman in this picture has covered herself in some sort of black paint or black body make up. But, that is incorrect.

In fact, this woman represents exactly HOW YOU SHOULD LOOK every time you expose your body to the sun.

What she has on her body is just a good coating of sunscreen, just like the sunblock that you put on yourself and your kids. But, isn't sunscreen white and/or clear?

Yes.

The big difference is that we are looking at this lady through an ultraviolet light. In other words, this is what the sun sees when it tries to penetrate her skin with harmful UV rays.

Take a look at the video to get a great lesson on the effects of the sun and just how powerful sunscreen can be.
