The best sunscreens to welcome spring
Producing vitamin C, absorbing calcium, improving the appearance of the skin… these are just some of the benefits that the sun produces in our skin, as long as we protect it with optimal products that prevent photoaging.
Knowing how to choose the right sunscreen for our skin is essential. Sunscreens are classified according to their SPF (Sun Protection Factor), which represents the level of sun protection they provide and is equivalent to the multiple of time we can safely sunbathe.
To calculate the SPF we need, we multiply the number of minutes it takes for our skin to redden by the SPF number. For example, fair skin takes about 5 minutes to redden, and with an SPF of 10, it would take 50 minutes.
