In the spring and summer, our skin is most prone to solar radiation, so at this time you just need to apply SPF-protection to the face and open areas of the body. Use creams with protection you need even in cloudy weather in summer, because radiation easily penetrates through the clouds.

It is clear that the higher the SPF figure, the greater the protection of the skin from the sun. However, there is a minimum safe level of obstruction to ultraviolet radiation. Specialists of the British Association of Dermatologists report that the best protection can be provided only by means in which the SPF-index begins with 30.

And if your skin is very light and sensitive, then you should choose a cream or spray with SPF-50 at least.

Do not forget that the protective layer of the cream is worth updating after each contact with water. In addition, new sunscreen products are worth buying every year anew, even if the shelf life of the cream from the previous season has not yet ended, because after 12 months of the ability to protect against ultraviolet sharply reduced.
