Abstract
Photoprotection is traditionally associated with the use of sunscreens and physical objects, such as clothing, sunglasses, hats, umbrellas, scarves, etc., together with behavioral modification by seeking shade, While these are some of the most effective methods of protecting the skin from the damaging UV radiation produced by the sun, there are other creative methods of obtaining sun protection from products that are not traditionally considered. These alternatives include sunless tanning products and colored cosmetics. While these are not a substitute for sunscreens and protective clothing, they might be a useful addition to a sun-protective regimen and are worth discussing for their additive effect. Both products are used primarily to adorn the body through creating a colored cover over the skin and are classified as cosmetics from a regulatory standpoint in the USA.
