ABSTRACT:
A method and kit for protecting a body against sunburn utilize application of a chemical sunscreen composition to external portions of a body, with the sunscreen composition being capable of fluorescing at a first visible wavelength under illumination from light of a second wavelength. The body is illuminated with light of the second wavelength so as to cause the sunscreen to fluoresce. The body is viewed while the body is under illumination of the second wavelength, so as to identify any non-fluorescing, missed external portions of the body to which the sunscreen was not previously applied. The sunscreen is further applied to any missed body portions.
