WHICH SUN PROTECTION FACTOR DO I NEED? Important to know: The SPF that is suitable for our own skin type is determined by the amount of time the skin can protect itself. This is the period for which the skin can be exposed to the sun without getting sunburn. Depending on your skin type, location and the time of year, this is 5 to 30 minutes on average. A high sun protection factor extends the pleasure of sunbathing and ensures you get a healthy tan. Sun protection factors are broken down into these levels: Low (6–10), medium (15–25), high (30–50), very high (50+). Do children need different sun protection products to adults? Children are particularly susceptible to UV related skin damage. Their delicate skin is still vulnerable and, in the case of very small children, their skin’s natural protection is not fully developed. Full skin thickness and the ability to pigment is not fully reached until the teens. Frequency of sunburn in childhood is related to skin cancer at later age therefore children should use sun care products with high and very high SPF. Furthermore, children love to bathe and swim. This decreases their skin’s own UV protection capacity and washes off UV filters to some extent. To keep the sun protection level as prolonged as possible, our children lotions and sprays are developed with "extra water resistant" and Kids Swim&Play with long lasting water resistant properties. Can I prolong the sun protection by reapplication of sunscreen? The protective effect will not increase by reapplication. Therefore it is important to start with a high protection factor right from the beginning. Regular application after toweling, swimming etc., but at least every 2 hours, will help maintain the chosen level of protection What is the correct amount of sun care product to be applied? The protection given by a sun care product will vary with the amount applied. Therefore the sun care product should be applied generously to all parts of the skin. Parts of the body often forgotten are the back of the neck, the front of the upper part of the chest and the backs of the legs. The application of sun care products is one of the key factors to effective protection in the sun: Always apply before sun exposure to ensure protection from the start. One application correlates to 2-3 tablespoons for average adults. Reapply every 2 hours, in any case after swimming, toweling and perspiring. |
