Are sunscreens with SPF values below 30 insufficient? What are the key points when choosing a sunscreen that 59.8% of women
misunderstand?
*Earth Care Co., Ltd. conducted a survey on 100 women aged 30 to 50 regarding the SPF value of sunscreen. *
Ultraviolet rays are the enemy of beautiful skin.
Many women use sunscreen to protect themselves from UV rays. Ultraviolet rays rain down on us not only in the summer, but all year round, on both sunny and rainy days.
Therefore* you should use sunscreen every day to protect your beautiful skin. * The survey results revealed that 59.8% of women believe that sunscreens with an SPF value of 30 or less are less effective than sunscreens with an SPF value of 50.
However,* it is actually not recommended to use a sunscreen with an SPF value of 50 for daily protection against UV rays*.
– SPF15 UV protection rate is approximately 93%
– SPF30 UV protection is 96.7%
– SPF50 UV protection rate is 98%
*Reference: Shiseido “”SPF value”, “PA classification” and optimal index essential for UV protection”
As you can see, *the difference between SPF30 and SPF50 is 1.3%*. In other words, an SPF of around 30 will protect you from UV rays.
Moreover, there is a bigger problem with sunscreens with an SPF value of 30 or higher.
That is *a big burden on the skin*.
Generally, in order to increase the SPF value, * “Ultraviolet absorber” * Contains a UV protection ingredient called . The problem is how this UV absorber blocks UV rays.
When UV absorbers block UV rays, they cause a chemical reaction on the skin and convert it into heat.
This heat conversion irritates and burdens the skin.
In this way, “ultraviolet absorbers” used to increase the SPF value* are not recommended for daily use*.
Look for a sunscreen that does not contain UV absorbers, in other words *100% UV scattering agent*!
