These UV rays lead to many skin problems such as-Sun tan,Sun burn,Dark patches,rashes etc.Apart from these,there is possibility to have skin cancer as well.Melanin,the pigment present in our skin helps to protect our skin from UV rays. Due to UV rays melanin comes out to the skin surface.As melanin is dark in colour,our skin also turns into dark colour.These UV rays also destroys collagen.As a result our skin becomes wrinkle prone.Sunscreen keeps away all these problems as it pevents UV rays to hamper the skin.
