SUNSCREEN 101: Your guide to safe sun enjoyment
How much sunscreen should I apply?
For the face
For the face, you should use an amount equal to the length of your two index fingers. This "two-finger rule" ensures that you apply enough protection to shield yourself from harmful UV rays. If you are particularly sensitive, feel free to follow the "three-finger rule" as well. For the entire body, half a palmful is recommended.
How long before sunbathing should I apply my sunscreen?
Apply your sunscreen at least 30 minutes before sunbathing. This is the time sunscreen needs to fully develop its protective effect. Particularly exposed areas such as the face, décolletage, neck, and hands require especially intensive sun protection. Remember to reapply the sunscreen at least every three hours; during the midday heat, more frequent application may be necessary.
What is the difference between physical (mineral) and chemical (organic) sunscreen?
Physical sunscreen forms a thin protective layer on the skin and reflects sunlight. Chemical sunscreen, on the other hand, absorbs sunlight and neutralizes it.
What are the benefits of physical sunscreen?
Physical sunscreen is hypoallergenic and therefore ideal for sensitive skin, including children. It adheres well to the skin, and modern formulations prevent the white cast that was common in the past. Ingredients such as titanium dioxide and zinc oxide effectively reflect harmful sun rays, preventing them from penetrating the skin in the first place.
What are the benefits of chemical sunscreen?
Chemical sunscreen is lightweight and non-sticky on the skin. It leaves no white cast and contains filters such as oxybenzone, octocrylene, and octinoxate, which penetrate the upper layer of the skin, absorb UV rays, and convert them into heat, which is then released by the skin.
What do SPF and PA mean in sunscreen?
The sun protection factor (SPF) and the PA rating indicate the level of protection provided by your sunscreen.
SPF (Sun Protection Factor): The SPF indicates how long you can stay in the sun with the sunscreen without getting sunburned. For example, SPF50 means you can stay in the sun 50 times longer than without protection. If you get sunburned after 10 minutes without protection, you can theoretically stay in the sun for 500 minutes with SPF50.
PA rating (UVA Protection): The PA rating indicates protection against UVA rays, which penetrate deep into the skin and are responsible for wrinkles and age spots. PA++ means your skin is protected from tanning for up to 8 times longer, PA+++ for up to 16 times longer, and PA++++ for more than 17 times longer than without protection.
With these tips, you are perfectly equipped to safely enjoy the sun and optimally protect your skin.
