Sun Tan Spray Fights The Bite Of Deadly Sunlight

By Haywood Hunter


Sun tan spray has been with us for quite a while. The deadly UV rays of sunlight has forced people to try and develop some kind of protection. The result was lotions that can be applied to the skin. Many types are available.

Sunscreen should never be confused with suntan oil. The oil is made for people who wants to tan quickly. It actually strengthens the heat of the sun to ensure a deeper and quick tan. This product does not provide any protection and is not meant to do so. Sunscreens like sun tan cream reflects and filters the heat to protect the skin against harmful rays. When buying a product for a day at the beach, make sure to choose right.

The sunscreen products, also called sunblock, is meant to protect the skin against long periods of exposure to the sun. Never leave it behind when you will be outdoors for an extended time, especially on a hot day. Another use for sunscreen products is in skin lightening products. Lighter skin can easily be damaged by harsh sunlight.

Whether you choose a small tube or spray on version of the cream, it is necessary to spread it evenly over all exposed skin. A generous blob in the palm of your hand should be sufficient to cover an adult body.

There is difference of opinion on exactly how to apply sunscreen products. Some people say apply it to the body two two three hours before you go outside. New research shows that two applications are actually more effective. One about 15 to 30 minutes minutes before you step into the sunlight and one after you have been outside for about the same period. Some kinds resist water. Others must be re-applied after swimming or sweating.

Babies should not really need suntan lotion because they should not even be exposed to direct sunlight for a longer amount of time. Adults have been taught about the dangerous rays. If the child will be outside for long, a physician should be consulted to see what is safe for the baby. Babies many times will break out in rashes from any skin care products because of their sensitive skin.

Older children love to have fun at the pool or seaside on a hot, summer day. It is vitally important that their young bodies get maximum protection. SPF 30 provides protection for most of the day. For example if you get sun burn in 10 minutes, SPF 30 will protect you for 300 minutes. If you use SPF 15, you will be protected from the sun for 150 minutes.

The sun is a cause of skin cancer. It is dangerous and must be treated as such. For this reason the American Cancer Society recommends the use of sunblocks. When you use it though, keep in mind that it van wash of or wipe off. Re-apply when you think it is necessary. There is no sense in paying a very high price of fun in the sun, especially not if sun tan cream can prevent it.
