Not if you don't want to look like leatherman (or leatherwoman) when you are in your 40s!
There are strong aesthetic benefits of never letting sunlight impinge upon your skin.
Women used to carefully cover exposed skin when outdoors and their skin would remain smooth and youthful into their 50s.
- fyfy18 7y agoThe point is to have more regular sun exposure, not stay locked up in an office for 6 months, then spend a week on a beach for 4 hours at a time. To end up looking like that you need to do some serious sunbathing or outdoor work without covering yourself. You aren't going to end up looking like that just from walking outside for 30 mins a day, especially not at latitudes further from the equator.
