HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST SUNSCREEN

June 5, 2023

Summer is just around the corner and spending time outside soaking in the sunshine is inevitable. The temperatures might be mild, but don’t let that fool you into forgetting to apply sunscreen.

Whether you’re at the beach sunbathing or running errands in the city, harmful UV radiations will find their way to your skin. Your face cream may have some level of protection, but as the weather gets warmer, the SPF needs to go up. When you are out in the sun your skin gets damaged, dry and unhealthy.

Your travel plans mean a lot of sun exposure and different forms of sun-induced damage for your skin which may lead to skin damage. Thus, applying a travel-friendly sunscreen is the most important part of your skincare routine. Sunscreens come in various forms such as gels, sunscreen lotion, creams, sprays, etc. With a lot of brands in the market, we are often spoilt for choice of sunscreen according to our skin type.

3 TIPS TO CHOOSE THE BEST SUNSCREEN

1. The higher SPF better protections

When choosing the best sunscreen for face, opt for a high SPF of 30 or higher which easily absorbs into the skin such as sunscreen gel SPF 50 especially for oily skin. No matter your skin tone, you should always stay protected from harmful UV rase.

2. Water Resistance

When choosing the best sunscreen for sensitive skin, make sure the product is water-resistant. Sunscreen manufacturers are not legally allowed to make or claim an SPF product as ‘waterproof’. Water-resistant sunscreen means you’ll be protected while you swim, but you’ll need to reapply when you get out. For the best protection, apply a layer of sunscreen every 40-80 minutes.

3.Choose What You Use

Whether you’re seeking dewier skin, battling breakouts, or married to your oil-blotting papers, the right sunscreen can help you put your best face forward. By using ingredients that will benefit your skin versus the ones that may sabotage it, you can ensure you end up with a product you’ll love. “My advice is to find a sunscreen you enjoy applying so you can make it a part of your daily routine.”
