Since the deleterious impact of ultraviolet radiation on the skin’s health was pointed up a few decades ago, it goes without saying that regular use of solar skin care is a must. At the same time, as in stores it teems with sunscreens of miscellaneous kinds, it turns out that a face cream with SPF 50 might be the best option for everyone.
SPF, or sun protection factor, tells us how longer we could be exposed to ultraviolet radiation before burning compared to when wearing no sunscreen. Accordingly, if it took us 10 minutes to burn the skin without any sun protection, with SPF 50 on, it would take us 500 minutes, or approximately a bit more than 8 hours. It makes a huge difference. Simultaneously, experts say that wearing anything higher than SPF 50 is not by any means effective. As much as expected protection generally increases with the SPF number, a significant difference is already almost gone between SPF 30 and SPF 50 – protection against UVB with SPF 30 is estimated to be 97% at its highest, while with SPF 50, 98% of the sun rays are blocked. Moreover, it has been scientifically shown that people wearing SPF 100 notably more often tend to forget about reapplying sunscreen, or even feel no need to do so, convinced by a high SPF number on their sunblock’s packaging.
What is imperative to touch upon, is the fact that SPF has nothing to do with protection against UVA radiation. Both kinds of rays are equally dangerous to the skin, yet in somehow different ways. UVB is of a shorter wavelength, penetrates more superficial layers of the skin, and is mostly associated with sunburn and various types of skin cancer. UVA, on the other hand, has a longer wavelength, therefore penetrates more deeply into the skin, and is much more connected with the external skin aging, which only superimposes on the manifestations of internal skin aging, or the one naturally intertwined with the process of becoming older. The skin loses its firm structure and elasticity as well as holds in moisture with much more difficulty, hence becomes rough, wrinkled, and sallow. Concurrently, it is more prone to hyperpigmented skin lesions like lentigines, which also can give rise to skin cancer. For these reasons, it is absolutely crucial to look for UVA protection alongside UVB protection when buying solar skin care products. SPF is extremely important, yet not everything that we have to check.
