Protect Your Skin with Scientifically Advanced Sunscreen
Protect your skin from sunlight is important, because it omits different types of ultraviolet radiation that causes sunburn, skin cancer, and other types of photo damage. UV-A, can cause invisible damage and skin aging, without any reddening or pain Ultraviolet type B (UV-B) radiation causes sunburn and is easier to protect your skin from than UV-A.
Effective sunscreen has been developed since 1938 to protect the skin from harmful sunlight. Eventually, a worldwide standard for measuring the effectiveness of sunscreen was introduced in 1962, when the concept of Sun Protection Factor (SPF) was applied to all sunscreen products.
The SPF of a sunscreen is a laboratory measure of the effectiveness of sunscreen. The higher the SPF, the more protection a sunscreen offers against the sun’s ultraviolet rays. The SPF number indicates the time a person wearing sunscreen can be exposed to the sun before getting sunburn relative to the time a person without sunscreen can be exposed. Someone who would burn after 15 minutes in the sun would expect to burn after 150 minutes if protected by a sunscreen with SPF 10. Different skin types require different SPF strengths. When choosing a sunscreen, make sure it is SPF 15 or higher, and select a broad-spectrum sunscreen that protects against UVB and UVA radiation.
