Protection against sun

Before you quickly grab the goods from the shelf, you need to read all the information on the back. The composition of sunscreens is very important. There are two spectrums of rays, A and AT, which have different effects on the skin. So, remember the following abbreviations:

• SPF - protects against spectrum UVB-rays, that is, from burns and excessive sunburn;


• PPD - protects against spectrum UVArays, that is, from pigmentation.

It is necessary that the cream has a double effect, since the skin needs to be completely protected from ultraviolet light.

There are several levels of protection against sunlight, which depend on the skin phototype:

• SPF from 2 to 4 - for a swarthy or already tanned skin;


• SPF from 5 to 10 - for light skin, as well as for those who sunbathe without burns or are exposed to the sun for several days;


• SPF 11 to 30 - for very pale and sensitive skin, also for children;


• SPF from 30 to 50 - Very high level of protection. For those who do not get sunburned, but instantly burn. Well, for those who want to completely protect themselves from the sun and sunburn.

Means of protection from the sun should be applied for half an hour before going to the beach. Please note, if you apply a cream with a protection level of 10 in three layers, then the effect of 30-ki this will not give. Do not be stingy, but buy a few tubes witha different factor, because you need to use creams from the sun correctly. If the cream is water resistant, then it is still necessary to update the protection after two or three bathing. Also, the layer of the cream is washed with a towel and grains of sand.

For a beautiful and even tan you need firstapply sunscreen with a high index, for example SPF-30, after a couple of days apply SPF-20, and then gradually reduce the figure. It should not be forgotten that a properly selected product does not fully protect against ultraviolet light, so you need to limit your exposure to the sun.

You can use different body oils, which will protect the skin from exposure to sunlight. The oil moisturizes the skin and provides a more even tan, but its effect is much weaker than the action of the cream.

Do not forget about face, which receives a large portion of ultraviolet,being in the sun almost all day. For the face it is better to use special creams that not only protect the skin from sunlight, but perfectly moisturize and nourish it. Usually, SPF-6 sunscreen filters are part of almost any day cream. But the skin needs to relax, especially after a busy day, so in the evening, apply a toner and a cooling mask to your face.

Also need protection eyebrows, eyelashes and lips. Before the rest, eyebrows and eyelashes can bepaint that will protect them from burning out for a couple of months. An alternative to dyeing is applying an anti-allergenic gel to the eyebrows and a waterproof mascara on the eyelashes. Prevent skin burning lips with lipstick or gloss, which includes the component SPF-6 or SPF-25 (for more intensive protection).

Pay attention to hair, as they burn out in the sun, become brittle anddry. Use special shampoos and masks; just before you go to the beach, curling, painting or discoloration is best not done, as this will weaken the hair. The best defense is a panama or hat. And what? It's fashionable and practical.

To stock up it is necessary a cream or a spray after sunburn. But these are not necessities, and they are perfectly replaced with moisturizing cream. It is better to take care of the availability cream from sunburn, as it can be easily burned, accidentally dozed off on the beach. The cream from burns removes inflammation and perfectly restores the skin.
