10% of sunscreen sales will be donated to the Irish Cancer Society
Thursday 19th Mar
To support Daffodil Day, the Institute of Dermatologists will donate 10% of all sunscreen sales today, both in clinic and online, to the Irish Cancer Society.
Skin cancer is the most common cancer in Ireland, with over 13,500 cases diagnosed every year. Much of this risk is linked to cumulative ultraviolet (UV) exposure over time.
While skin cancer is not always preventable, protecting the skin from UV radiation remains one of the most effective ways to reduce risk and prevent further cumulative damage.
Ultraviolet rays reach the skin even on cloudy days in Ireland. Over time they contribute to skin ageing, pigmentation, and the initiation of skin cancers.
Applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen every day helps protect the skin from both UVA rays, which contribute to skin ageing, and UVB rays, which cause sunburn.
On Friday, 10% of sales of any sunscreen both in the clinic and online will contribute to our donation to the Irish Cancer Society.
