A passionate golfer never minds soaking up the summer sun as it comes to teeing it off in the green!
Golf is fun when you stay healthy. But there are those deadly, stealthy UV rays that conspire against your health – they weave the plots to pin you down and you don’t come to realize their silent attack until it is too late.
In the USA, women play an average of 50 to 60 rounds of golf each year. Taking five hours per round in an average, it amounts to at least 250 hours of intense sun exposure.
As a matter of fact, it is the creed of the golfers that belongs to the highest risk group of skin cancer. And so you can see, why a special skin care regimen is imperative for all you lady golfers.
Going through the right skin care regimen ensures that you have a long and successful golf life. So here are some basic guidelines to help you tee off safely this summer.
Here is what an ideal beauty regimen of a female golfer should comprise of:
- Your skin requires protection as well as repair of the previous damages. So go for the product that combines protection and repair in one.
- Sun exposure is one of the main reasons behind aging and drying of skin and to replenish the moisture level of your skin you need to go for facials. A golfer’s face pack should comprise lots of antioxidants and vitamins.
- The whole day in the green lets your body accumulate enough grim for the day and at the end of the day you will need some good scrubs to get rid of them. Once the surface of the skin is free of the layer of dirt, it will allow the moisturizers to get absorbed more easily.
- A spa visit is recommended for receiving cooling and hydrating wraps that will help you beat the heat while you bang around in the fairway.
- All these should be topped up by regular massage session.
- A golfer’s beauty products should include such natural ingredients as aloe and other herbs and plants and fruits like strawberries, cucumbers and oranges for their soothing effects. The rose water and camphor are two other natural ingredients that may help you remain cool while you measure up your next hole.

Even after you grab the best skin care product, don’t give these little details a miss:
- Never hit the green without putting on tightly woven, sun protective clothes that provide an UPF 15 or more. Also cover your both hands with gloves; giving protection to your poor hands is more important than showing off the up-market manicuring wonder.Â
- Use high quality sun glasses and wide brimmed hat covering face and ears.
- Invest in the best sun cream with SPF of at least 15. Use waterproof varieties for better comfort. Also apply lip bum with SPF at least15.
- Make it clear to your partner that you will prefer a ride in a covered cart over walking all the way for less sun exposure.
- Rush to the shades in between tees or when the play has stopped.
- Keep your inside hydrated by loading plenty of water. Don’t believe them who inform you that chilled beer would cool you down; on the contrary it works for more dehydration.
Keep these skin care tips in mind and also don’t forget your dermatologist; make it a point to visit him at least once in a year.
Now that you have all the secrets to snub the sun off hit the green with confidence and swing it off to your heart’s content.
