Beware of the lime as you head into Memorial Weekend!
As the weather gets warmer, many of us head to the beach or the lake to enjoy a sunny weekend away. While there, we also may enjoy beverages such as a classic margarita or a beer with lime.
Did you know that lime juice on the skin coupled with sun exposure can cause something called phytophotodermatitis?
This skin condition manifests as darkened appearance of skin, rashes, and in severe cases, blistering.
Remember to apply sunscreen and avoid getting lime juice on your body.
It's never too late to take good care of your skin. Be good to your skin and your skin will be good to you.
