Sunscreen FAQs - How and When to Apply Sunscreen

To better understand the importance of SPF and sunscreen we asked Kayte Epperly, Scientific Communication Liaison at L’Oreal Research & Innovation US Skin Care Development, some important information on how to use sunscreen effectively in your beauty routine.

When do we need to wear SPF?

Ideally you should wear it at all times, but especially if you are outdoors, even if it is an overcast day.

Are all sunscreens created equal? What are the different SPF factors, and the differences between UVA/UVB protection?

Sunscreens in the USA need to meet specific guidelines set forth by the FDA. FPS (factor de protección solar) se correlaciona con la capacidad de la pantalla solar para bloquear los rayos UVB. Un FPS 30 bloquea aproximadamente un 97% de los rayos UVB, mientras que los FPS más altos bloquean poco más que ese porcentaje. Este número no se correlaciona con la frecuencia con la que se debe reaplicar una pantalla solar.

UVA rays also known as “aging rays” can prematurely age your skin, cause wrinkles and age spots. They are able to pass through glass windows.

UVB rays also known as “burning rays” are primary cause of sunburn and cannot pass through window glass.

Broad Spectrum means that the sunscreen will help protect against UVA and UVB rays.

The type of sunscreen you use comes down to personal preference and the format you select should be one that you would use regularly.

What is the recommended level of sun protection for daily wear?

La American Academy of Dermatology recomienda un mínimo de FPS 30 o superior para uso diario.

How much sunscreen should you apply?

Sunscreen should be applied liberally ensuring that all exposed areas are covered. To fully cover most adult bodies you need about 1 ounce (or a shot glass full).

What is the best way to apply & reapply sunscreen?

It is recommended to apply sunscreen at least 15 minutes prior to going outdoors for the sunscreen to absorb into your skin. La pantalla solar debe volver a aplicarse cada 2 horas o inmediatamente después si nada o suda.

La pantalla solar debe aplicarse y frotarse bien sobre la piel seca. To be sure you don’t miss any spots, you can apply in front of a mirror or ask someone to assist on hard-to-reach areas.
