    A new study says the daily use of sunscreen has an unexpected benefit: it could slow aging.

    FOX News Radio’s Paul Stevens reports:

    New research out of Australia showing that near-daily sunscreen use can slow skin aging. Use of sunscreen not only preventing skin cancer but also cutting down on ultraviolet sun rays that cause wrinkles and aging signs. Researchers looking at the hands of 900 people under 55, measuring fine lines and wrinkles with casts. After 4.5 years, those using daily sunscreen had 24% less skin aging than those with just occasional sunscreen use.
