What SPF should I use?

For everyday use, a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 is recommended, as it provides good protection against harmful UV rays. If you are spending prolonged time outdoors, especially in direct sunlight, consider using a higher SPF, such as 50. Always choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect against both UVA and UVB rays.

Key points:

• SPF 30 is suitable for daily use.
• Higher SPF offers more protection for extended outdoor activities.
• Broad-spectrum sunscreens protect against UVA and UVB rays.
• Reapply sunscreen every two hours or after swimming.
