Give you all to whats’s important protect yourself from the sun

Cantabria Labs and Rafa Nadal together for the "Zero Melanoma Goal"

Give your all for what’s important, protect yourself from the sun!

At Cantabria Labs we’re working to raise awareness about the importance of good sun exposure habits for preventing skin damage. As part of our initiatives, together with our ambassador Rafa Nadal, we’re launching “Zero Melanoma Goal”, an Instagram “hand challenge” to help learn the 3 steps for being “ok” in the sun and contribute to reaching the goal of #0melanoma.

Join the #0melanoma challenge!

Protect and repair your skin

To prevent skin cancer in general, and melanoma in particular, dermatologists recommend a series of measures such as wearing sunglasses and a hat, choosing sunscreen that protects and repairs damage, application every two hours, and complementing topical sunscreen with oral photoprotection.

Combine oral photoprotection with topical sunscreen

To obtain complete protection it is necessary to combine topical sunscreen with oral photoprotection, since studies show that most people do not apply enough product, forget areas, and do not reapply it as frequently as they should.

Check your moles and visit a dermatologist

To reduce the mortality rate from melanoma, early diagnosis is important through self-checks to see if any moles have changed shape, size or color, as well as yearly visits to a dermatologist.

What is the " Zero Melanoma Goal" challenge?

If the Cantabria Labs filter #0melanoma with the three steps for healthy sun exposure goes viral on Instagram and obtains more shares than the total number of melanoma cases diagnosed in 2021, we will add extra 3,000 euros to the donation we make annually to the Healthy Skin Foundation of the Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology. The AEDV is a professional association with which we collaborate for research into, and prevention of, skin diseases.
