Choose a new swimsuit, make up the route of travel and, of course, close all projects at work ... - Before traveling to the sea of affairs, and forget about the purchase of sunscreen is easy. In order for such a fiasco, it does not happen, and most importantly, that you acquire exactly what you need, we have gathered all the main questions on this burning topic and have tried the most fully as possible, it is possible to answer them.
How to choose a SPF factor?
It all depends on the place where you plan to smear the protective agent. SPF factor 15-20 will suit the metropolis. But if the skin is light, it is worth secure and take SPF 30. Going to relax in Europe? There the climate is not very different from our, and if the skin sunbathes well and rarely happens, it is possible to restrict ourselves to the SPF factor 20, if blushing, but still does not burn - buy SPF 30, and in the case when the skin is pale and sees, barely You're a little bit of the sun, - to help SPF 50+. Going to a hot country of type Vietnam or Bali? Take the SPF 50+ immediately! In this case, it does not matter what kind of skin will suffer. During the vacation, the protective factor can be reduced. True, in the last days, oil with SPF 10 is not worth it: it is, of course, it will be moisturized, and the tan will look even and more beautiful, but the protection with this oil is just funny. It is easier to say, there is no one at all.
What is the difference between chemical and physical filters and what better?
Physical filters (SPF) are protected from radiation of type B and burns. This radiation launches melanin production, and somewhere in two or three days lying on the beach, the skin begins to darken. Chemical filters (PPD inscription) rescue from radiation type A. It provokes no longer burns, but allergic in the sun, pigmentation and appearance of wrinkles, plus increases the risk of melanoma. Therefore, experts recommend buying funds in which both types of filters are present.
How to apply protective cream?
You need to smear it generously, so the bottle can end quickly. The layer should be noticeable on the skin, you will feel a little fat. It is necessary to apply the tool for fifteen minutes before going out. This is important because people with pale leather have time to burn, so far only flashed with cream. So why risks? In addition, the remedy needs time to absorb. So learn to apply it correctly. Singing a strip of cream with a wrist length to the tip of the middle finger - this is the amount required for each zone: neck, abdomen, back, arms and legs. Usually the cream acts about two hours, then you need to update the layer. If you are swimming, the tool must be waterproof. Such products are withstanding about two swims of twenty minutes within two hours. Just keep in mind that before re-applying a cream with chemical filters (and we have already found out that without them on the beach it is not necessary to rush. The fact is that in two hours the filters are oxidized and begin to bring more harm to the skin than ultraviolet. Minding a new layer on these residues does not make sense.

Is it possible to do without protection if I have already twisted a little?
Not. From radiation of the type in the tan, it worries, because Melanin has already developed. So you are hardly burning. But the radiation of type A (and it is much more dangerous) will act equally, and therefore photobores and the risk of melanoma will not go anywhere. That is why the girls who go to the solarium so as not to remember the beach about the cream, do not come true.
Does it be used to use the remedy with SPF all year?
It will not be superfluous, because the radiation of type A is not delayed even with glasses in the car. True, most of the tonal and BB creams have already added protection from the sun. In this case, it is not necessary to smear the means with SPF.
Is it enough on vacation to apply only protective cream on the face?
Yes, if you have a young, absolutely healthy skin and you live and relax in environmentally friendly areas. In general, conditions close to fiction. In reality, without additional funds, it is not necessary, because good moisturizing, and full protection against negative external factors. Therefore, at least a light moisturizer, which is applied in front of protective cream. And at night, use serum with hyaluronic acid: it will restore the balance of moisture after sunny baths.
Is it allowed to apply body cream to face?
The filters in them are the same, the difference in the texture and combination of caring components. But if the face cream is over, you can apply a body for a body with a high degree of protection, because this zone is faster than burning. Or pick up the product with the mark "for the face and body". They pass all the necessary testing for allergies.
How to care for the skin of the hands and legs?
With palms and feet, the cream is erased much faster, which is why they are so often burning. To this not happen, update the layer every thirty-forty minutes. And before bedtime, it is desirable to apply the recovery cream. In its composition, look for glycerin, moisturizing skin, and panthenol, healing cracked areas.

Do hair suffer from the sun and do they definitely protect them?
Yes, especially if you have painted or dry curls. A special tool will create a layer on a curl rod, preventing the loss of moisture and the collapse of color pigments. In the package, look for IPD, PPD, PA, UVA and UVB indices, or the inscription "Wide Protection Spectrum" (Broad-Spectrum). At the same time, the usual designation of the SPF with the number may not be caught, since the filters in body facilities and hair are used different and accurately count the protection factor in the second case has not yet learned. Even if the value is indicated, it is quite approximate. Spray is applied for half an hour before entering the sun, since it needs time to activate, and every two hours you need to update the application, as in the case of body tools. Often you can meet the advice to use ordinary oils to protect against the Sun, they have a high SPF factor. In fact, natural oils are low. Thermal protection products are also not suitable. They do not protect at all.
What if the skin still burned?
Solar burn is nothing, in fact, does not differ from the usual: first the skin bluses, and then painful sensations appear. Of course, burning the sun as much as boiling water or steam, however, the next few days after you burned, burns will bother and can spoil rest. Unfortunately, the sun's rays are very cunning: you can immediately not feel that burned, because the heat is absorbed by the skin gradually. But still the effect will be, as they say, is evident. In the case of a burn, wet the towel with cool water and attach to the affected area of the body. Remember: no oil. Creating a film, it is like locking excess heat, which slowly distinguishes our affected skin, and the problem is only enhanced. And to smear kefir - this is the last century. Equality products are closed by pores and can lead to infection. Warm bath with chamomile decoction will soften painful sensations. After it, apply the cooling agent after the tan. Ideally, if there is a hyaluronic acid that contributes to the speedy restoration of the skin, and the aloe gel that saves dehydration. Soak this gel napkins and apply it to burns every ten minutes within an hour. Brew a strong green tea, pour it into a bottle with a sprayer and put it in the refrigerator. Spray tea on burned areas as often as possible. You can also make compresses from welding - it will remove the pain and sensation of burning. And most importantly: if blisters appeared on the skin, consult a doctor: in this case, you should not engage in self-medication.
