Did you ever get the skin sun-bathing that looked very dark, even when wearing sunscreen? Or your skin starts problematic because too often working in the field? Maybe you made a mistake in applying sunscreen.
These are some misconceptions about sunscreen and what’s the solution:
1. The amount is too little sunscreen
Pour sunscreen in a sufficient portion to the palms and apply to a member of the body, and so on. Apply sunscreen to the face, hands, back, and do not forget also the area under your feet including your back and your toes.
2. Dark skin is considered Unnecessary Wear Sunscreen
Although you are born with dark skin, that’s no excuse for not wearing sunscreen. Earth’s ozone layer is currently not as strong as before, so you should still use sunscreen to your skin protected from sun exposure.
3. Not To Wear Sunscreen with SPF is Right
We recommend that you use sunscreen with SPF 30 for all outdoor activities. If you use SPF 15 for outdoor activities, should be applied repeatedly. For outdoor activities, use sunscreen every 2-3 hours. Especially if you move in the water.
4. Wear Sunscreen Already Expired
Maybe you often buy stocks cosmetics in considerable numbers, be sure that your sunscreen has not expired. Cosmetics usually have an expiration period of 2 years, while the sunscreen about 1 year.
5. Only Wear Sunscreen
There are times when it was wearing sunscreen you’re feeling safe, and ignore the hat, sunglasses, or gloves. You’ll want to keep using this accessory because they are enough to help protect your skin from direct exposure to sunlight.
6. Wearing Tanning Lotion with Low Level of SPF
Even if you intend to darken leather-tanning lotions and Sunbathing on the beach, notice lotion SPF in it. Since tanning lotions contain only four SPF.
7. Cosmetics with Low Level of SPF
Sunscreens are not just limited to body lotion, but also cosmetics you use on the face as talcum powder and lip balm. Note the level of SPF in cosmetics, and do not forget to protect the skin area of the face, including eyes, ears and lips with cosmetics with an appropriate SPF level.
8. Outdoors Activities
Sunlight over at 10 is quite dangerous for your skin. Not only makes the skin dry, dull and dark but can cause skin cancer. Should avoid outdoor activities from 10 am until 4 pm. If you are forced to move out of the room, preferably not more than 1 hour.
