SKIN CANCER PREVENTION
Use broad spectrum sunblock with the active ingredients “zinc” & “titanium”
And in regard to examining moles, follow the ABCDE’s of self screening. Look for:
Asymmetry
Borders
Color
Diameter
Evolving
And CHANGING is the most important thing. Anything, mole or otherwise, on your skin that is changing is suspect.

BARREL OR NAH?
Hitchhiking?
Sex tapes?
Gambling?
Rip Curl’s Throwback Logo?
Mick used it at Bells but Mason revitalized the trend last month . . .
