Now, this doesn\u2019t seem like a bad thing on the surface. Warm weather makes outside activities aplenty (and easier to enjoy). But on the flip side, exposure to the sun can lead to short and long term effects: cancer, sunburns, etc. To combat the dangerous effects, sunscreen helps protect our skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why is it so important to use sunscreen and which sunscreen is the best for us? We\u2019ve got your answers. They\u2019ll be not only good for our skin, but crucial to the well-being of our body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_87_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\"><p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<\/div><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.booksy.com\/us\/skin\/sunscreen-everything-you-need-to-know\/#what-is-uv-radiation-how-can-i-protect-myself-from-it\" >What is UV radiation?

How can I protect myself from it?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">UV radiation reaches our earth in the sunlight. Since its wavelength is smaller than that of violet light, it\u2019s been called ultraviolet radiation. It is invisible to the human eye and comes in three forms: UVA, UVB and UVC rays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A carrier of enormous energy, UV radiation can weaken our bodies cells during prolonged exposure to the sun. These cells break down and don\u2019t work properly, causing the body to try removing them. In other words, have you ever noticed your skin peeling after tanning?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unfortunately, these rays reach the earth all year round, no matter the weather. That\u2019s why we should protect our skin, even on cloudy days. Additionally, some surfaces act like a mirror, reflecting this harmful radiation and as a result, making the effect even stronger. For example, windows are great for exposing you to UV rays.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/11121736\/sunscreen1.jpg\" alt=\"Example of a woman using sunscreen.\" class=\"wp-image-49113\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/11121736\/sunscreen1.jpg 650w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/11121736\/sunscreen1-300x185.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-does-sunscreen-work\"><\/span>How does sunscreen work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many creams and lotions have a special label indicating the protection they provide to the skin. SPF, or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.skincancer.org\/blog\/ask-the-expert-does-a-high-spf-protect-my-skin-better\/\">Sun Protection Factor<\/a>, means that the product protects us against UVB radiation. The higher the SPF, the better protected you are. Keep in mind that SPF doesn\u2019t adequately work unless it\u2019s at 30 or higher. That means your moisturizer most likely won\u2019t cut it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"which-sunscreen-should-you-choose-for-your-complexion\"><\/span>Which sunscreen should you choose for your complexion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choosing the proper sunscreen for your skin is the first and most important step. The general rule of thumb here is to remember that the lighter your skin is, the higher SPF you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People with fair skin and red or light hair are most vulnerable to the sun. Their skin is usually covered with freckles, they can get sunburned faster while having a harder time tanning. A sunscreen with a minimum SPF 60 should be what you go for.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you don\u2019t have freckles, but your skin is still rather on the light side and your hair is light you don\u2019t need such high SPF. Your sunscreen may be slightly lower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, if your skin tone is darker, a lower SPF, such as 30, would be effective, as your skin is less sensitive to UV radiation. The darker skin is means it\u2019s less&nbsp;prone to getting sunburned, but the chance is still there for everyone!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/11121758\/sunscreen2.jpg\" alt=\"Sunburn protection at the pool.\" class=\"wp-image-49118\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/11121758\/sunscreen2.jpg 650w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/11121758\/sunscreen2-300x185.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"applying-sunscreen\"><\/span>Applying sunscreen<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apart from choosing the right SPF for your complexion, you also have to remember properly applying the sunscreen. First of all, the time when we apply the lotion to our skin is important. We shouldn\u2019t do it right before going to the beach or when we\u2019re already by the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sunscreen should be applied about twenty to thirty minutes before going into the sun. Otherwise, it won\u2019t be as effective in protecting your skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The layer of applied sunscreen should also be thick. It\u2019s estimated that we need about 20 ml of the product for a single application. It is also extremely important to reapply another layer of cream every two to three hours. Of course, we should also apply the lotion again after each swimming session.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All in all, sunscreen should be our best friend all year round. It will protect your skin and allow you to spend time soaking up those sun rays in a healthy way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During the summer, we spend quite a bit of time in the sun.&nbsp;No matter if&nbsp;we seek&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":49123,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kadence_starter_templates_imported_post":false,"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":"","_ppma_block_editor_authors":""},"categories":[25],"tags":[],"ppma_author":[191],"class_list":["post-49112","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-skin"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Sunscreen\u2013Everything You Need to Know - Booksy.com<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Why is sunscreen so important for us to use?
