High-quality sun protection - why it is indispensable
Why is UV protection so important?
The earth is constantly exposed to ultraviolet rays (UV rays) from the sun. These rays are divided into two main types: UVA and UVB rays. UVA rays penetrate deeper into the skin and are mainly responsible for premature skin ageing and the formation of wrinkles. UVB rays, on the other hand, are the main cause of sunburn and play a central role in the development of skin cancer. However, one thing counts for both types - the use of high-quality sun protection!
Choosing the right sun protection for your skin health
Broad spectrum protection
It is best to look for productsthat offer both UVA and UVB protection. These are often labeled as 'broad spectrum protection' or 'broad spectrum protection' and offer high quality sun protection.
SPF value
The protection factor (SPF) indicates how well the sunscreen protects against UVB rays. However, a higher SPF value does not mean that you are protected all day without reapplying. Experts recommend an SPF of at least 30 and regular reapplication.
Water resistance
If you spend a lot of time in the water or doing sports, it's best to choose a water-resistant sunscreen. Even if no sunscreen offers complete water resistance, this high-quality sunscreen is a good addition for those who want to be well protected in the water or during sport.
Skin type
Always consider your skin type when choosing a sunscreen. People with sensitive skin should look for products that are formulated for their skin type to avoid irritation.
