The display apparatus includes a rotatable disk member (70) positioned between a base member (60) and a template member (80). The disk member is rotated via tab (72) such that UV exposure information 75 appearing through template member window (82) always corresponds to appropriate protective measure pictorials (77) appearing through template member window (84).
