This a great thread. We all can benefit from the suggestions here. As usual I'll add my two cents.
Sunscreen is essential for anyone who spends any amount of time outdoors. Many people forget or ignore the warnings given by Dr's and the American Cancer Society. Wide brimmed hats, sunglasses and sunscreen should be a part of everyone's routine when going outdoors.
Fair skinned individuals should consider better protection by using sunblock with titanium dioxide or even zincofax. These products stop the UVA/UVB rays from ever reaching the skin. Which gives far more protection than sunscreen.
