If you have ever been to the sunscreen aisle at your local drugstore, you know how overwhelming it can be: SPF this, UVA that and then throw in UVBs in the mix and the sunscreen confusion begins!
Choosing the Right SPF: In Sunscreen SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. The higher the SPF number, the better protection against the sun's harmful UVB rays. The SPF number lets you know how much longer you can stay out of the sun without burning. For example, if it takes 15 minutes for a person to burn, an SPF 15 will allow them to stay out in the sun 15 times longer without burning.
The American Academy of Dermatology recommends wearing an SPF of 15 or higher for maximum protection. SPF is available in levels from 2 to 60. Does highest mean the best protection? Not necessarily. An SPF of 50 only provides 1 % to 2 % more protection than an SPF 30.
UVA and UVB Protection:The label of the sunscreen will indicate the UVA or UVB protection. UVA rays are responsible for the aging effect of the sun; however, overexposure to UVA rays can cause skin cancer. UVB rays are responsible for sunburns and skin cancer. Choose a product that states, "UVA/ UVB," protection or has "broad spectrum" protectant.

Getting a sunscreen depends on your body type. They have various types for dry skin and oily skin. though there are some widely dermatologist recommended sunscreens

MD Skincare Auto-Balancing Moisture Sunscreen SPF 10.
Its a moisturizer that also includes SPF. What's special about this sunscreen is its ability to adjust the level of hydration on certain areas of ur skin, making it great for normal to oily or combination skin . The non-greasy formula also firms and tightens skin.



Jan Marini Skin Research Antioxidant Daily Face Protectant SPF 30 . Its a powerful sunscreen that provides all-day protection for your skin. It is also waterproof, sweatproof and it will never leave your face feeling oily.Since it has invisible microscopic sponges, it hydrates the skin as it absorbs grease, and it leaves ur skin with a beautiful matte finish now that' s pretty fantastic!

I always thought that choosing the right sunscreen is key, and the advice from black girl sunscreen customer service is a great example of what to look for. They emphasize the importance of considering SPF levels, water resistance, and skin sensitivity. It's also helpful to choose a sunscreen that suits your specific skin type and daily activities. Remember, regular application is necessary for effective protection.
