OH! Magazine - Australian Version December 2015 | Page 2

ADD SOME SOPHISTICATION TO YOUR SUMMER Skin cancer is one of those diseases that we all tend to think will never happen to us. But the truth is, this insideous condition can affect anyone and everyone, without discrimination for one’s age, gender or race. So in a bid to decline the alarming rates of incidence here in Australia, one mother/daughter duo from Western Australia are taking action to remove the stigma surrounding sun protection, and to encourage Aussies to be more mindful and proactive about their SPF protection this summer (and beyond). In this new edition, you’ll learn all about this award-winning business, plus we have lots of healthy lifestyle advice from our resident experts. As 2015 comes to a close, take the time to celebrate all the good things you experienced this year. And be sure to focus on the silver linings from any negative experiences you may have endured over the past 12 months. To you, your family and your loved ones, I wish you fun times and lots of merriment as you welcome in a new year. Enjoy the holiday season, keep making wise choices, stay safe and I look forward to seeing you here again next year. ANALEE MATTHEWS Publisher & Editor [email protected] 2 DECEMBER 2015 ( OH!
