Planning for skin protection

I’ve decided that properly protecting my skin takes a lot of preparation and planning. I went to the indoor pool last week, and I presumably washed all my sunscreen off when I was swimming. When I came out of the gym, it hit me that I did not have on sunscreen. It was a very short walk to my car and at 7:30 p.m. at night, but I did not have on sunscreen. Never again! I will put sunscreen in my gym bag.

What plans do you make to protect your skin? Does it help you be more effective to plan?
