Sunscreen, a must use for every women!

Sunscreen (also known as sunblock)is a lotion, spray, gel or other topical product that absorbs or reflects some of the sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation on the skin exposed to sunlight and thus helps protect against sunburn.


Sunscreens contain one or more UV filters of which there are three main types:

1. Organic chemical compounds that absorb ultraviolet light (such as oxybenzone, a suspected photocarcinogen)


2. Inorganic particulates that reflect, scatter, and absorb UV light (such as titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, or a combination of both).


3. Organic particulates that mostly absorb light like organic chemical compounds, but contain multiple chromophores, may reflect and scatter a fraction of light like inorganic particulates, and behave differently in formulations than organic chemical compounds
   
   The most important product to prevent your skin from wrinkles and skin cancer. Sunscreen reduces the harmful effects of the sun on your skin.The word that comes to mind when one talks about sunscreen is SPF. What exactly is SPF?
   
   SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. The higher the SPF, the more protection it provides.The SPF 10 sunscreen allows a person to stay out in the sun 10 times longer.
   
   Apply sunscreen daily. It takes around 20 minutes for your skin to absorb the sunscreen. So apply it 20 minutes before you go out. Reapply sunscreen every 2-3 hours when you are in the sun. Sunscreen should be the last thing you apply on your skin. In other words apply your moisturizer before your sunscreen.
   
   Apply sunscreen even in the winters when its not very sunny. The sun's UV rays are always effecting your skin and they are always there during the day time even when is not very sunny.
