Though applying sunscreen is a must all round the year, one should be particularly careful during summers as this is the time when the skin suffers maximum damage from sun.
Here are a few tips that will help you choose the right sunscreen for your skin, this summer:
If you are one of those who spends a lot of time in the sun, then you must always pick a sunscreen with a high sun protection formula (SPF).
SPF 30 and 50 are always the best bet.It is always wise to choose a sunscreen that is water(sweat)-resistant.
Since one tends to sweat a lot more in summers, it is advisable to use a sunscreen that is sweatresistant to reap maximum benefits.
Don't fall for products that claim to have SPF 100 as SPF 50 always gives you 98% protection from UV rays which is the maximum. So SPF 100 is actually not needed.
