What will it take?

With skin cancer and melanoma affecting so many young adults sometimes it takes a different tactic to get their attention about the harm UV radiation can inflict on a persons life. How do we get young adults attention?

With words?

  • “Natural is certainly healthier.”
  • “No tan is worth your life.”
  • “Love the skin you’re in!”
  • “I like the shade of myself, pasty and proud!!”
  • “A shade of pale is always better for your skin than a tanning bed.”

Or with photos?

All humor aside, will it actually take being diagnosed with melanoma and once removed (hopefully) being left with a horrible scar (or more) for the rest of their lives.

What will it take?

  1. Hello,
    Your website sure gives some good insight about tanning. The one picture at the very top of you page is very graphic. I too have an article about tanning and you can check it out at: http://one-stopbeauty.com. Please leave a comment because I love to get people’s opinions and feedback and also check out my other articles I have written on other topics.

  2. This is a great point, for some people no matter how you say it, they don’t realize that skin cancer is a very common diagnosis. Those pictures were very shocking, maybe that’s what it takes for people to finally realize.

    I have a blog on skin cancer awareness as well, maybe you could check it out and give me some tips? http://keenforsunscreen.wordpress.com/

    Thanks!
