WHAT IS SPF in SUNSCREEN?

Every sunscreen product has mentioned SPF which stands for SUN PROTECTION FACTOR.
For Example, SPF 15 will allow you to protect from the sun for 150 minutes.
• It helps to protect our skin from UVA & UVB rays.
• UVA gets deep into our skin layers called DERMIS which causes wrinkles and aging.
• UVB directly affects skin layer i.e. EPIDERMIS above than the DERMIS that causes sunburn and turns our skin red by damaging tissues. Hence, it can cause skin cancer.
• Excess of vitamin D from the direct sun can be harmful as it needs a good amount of calcium to get dissolve in the body.

WHY SUNSCREEN IS IMPORTANT?

Sunscreen is the outer layer that we need to apply 15 minutes before going in the sun.

It creates a shield that can control PHOTONS release from the sunlight to get into our skin.

SPF comes in carious protection factors i.e. SPF 15, 30 and 50. (mostly available in market)

However, Dermatologists mostly recommend a sunscreen with SPF 15 or 30. As we need to re-apply sunscreen again while being in sun for a longer period of time.

DOES SUNSCREEN REALLY WORK?

It does work as it controls 93% to 98% damage from the sun. Yes, with the increase of heat and damage of the ozone layer due to Global warming, we need to protect our skin from aging and cancer as the direct exposure could be harmful.
