Although skin care must be present throughout the year, it is true that in summer it is especially necessary, especially if we are going to expose ourselves directly and prolonged to the sun. Sun protection is vital to ensure good health of our skin! It protects our skin from ultraviolet rays, prevents skin aging, helps prevent premature wrinkles and prevents skin cancer.
But… do you know everything about UV rays and sun protection? ● First of all…What is
SPF ?:
SPF stands for
Sun Protection Factor and measures the level of protection against the sun's UVB rays:
SPF15 --> Blocks 93%
SPF30 --> Blocks 97%
SPF50 --> Blocks 98%
● UV, UVB and UVA rays? We help you understand the difference:
UV rays are known as Ultraviolet rays, within this type we can distinguish:
UVB rays (burning) --> are associated with the beach and in addition to skin cancer can cause skin burns.
UVA rays (aging) --> They make up 95% of all UV rays, are present 365 days a year and pass through both clouds and windows. They are responsible for aging, expression lines, dark spots and skin cancer.
● When do we apply SPF? The answer is simple: ALWAYS .
Apply your SPF every 2 hours, use high protection (you're going to tan anyway, don't worry) and avoid sun exposure in the middle of the day, from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
