Glowing sun-kissed healthy skin is for many extremely desirable. To achieve this it is important to protect your skin against the damaging ultra violet (UV) rays from the sun. SkinStore brings you a wonderful selection of some of the finest sun protection available.
The best sunscreens and sunblocks protect your skin from the sun by utilising potent blend of sun filters - such as long-lasting Parsol 1789 (Avobenzone) and Titanium Dioxide together with moisturisers. These sunscreens help extend the time you can be exposed in the sun and are available in different concentrations or Sun Protection Factors (SPFs).
Many of the sunscreen we carry for sunbathing include at least an SPF 15 to offer you moderate broad-spectrum UV protection. For more extensive sun protection high SPF 30 or higher is strongly recommended or if you are fair-skinned and prone to sunburn.
It is recomended that you only use lower factor SPF sunscreens if they are blended into day creams, perfect for going to work at the office. These offer you some protection for the small amounts of time your skin will be exposed.
It is extremely important to reapply sunscreen frequently in the sun to prevent sunburn damage as this is the major contributor to Skin Cancer.
If you are burnt, soothing after sun gels, lotions and balms can alleviate the pain and redness using calming Aloe Vera, Chamomile ad Allantoin. See 'Concerns' - 'Sun Burn'
