For Normal and Sensitive Skin – dermatologically tested.
Not irritating – dermatologically tested.
Water resistant – implies that the photoprotector has not lost its protective capacity after 40 minutes of immersion in the water.
ARUAL Sunscreens are formulated with solar filters that protect us from both ultraviolet radiation: UVB and UVA.
– UVB – ultraviolet radiation responsible for erythema or redness.
– UVA – ultraviolet radiation responsible for the phototoxic reactions and long-term photoaging of the skin.
What protection factor is adequate?
The Protection Factor that must be chosen will depend on two variables. Some guidelines would be:
1. Skin phototype – skins that are hard to tan, easily burned, people with light eyes, blond hair or red hair – Factor 50+.
Skin that tans easily, rarely or never burns, people with brown or black hair, people with brown eyes – Factor 30.
1. Solar radiation – It depends on sun exposure season, place and day and duration.
At higher solar radiation a Factor 50+ is advised
At lower solar radiation Factor 30
Factors to be considered:
The solar radiation is maximum between 12:00 p.m. And 4:00 p.m.
Solar radiation also increases in summer, in geographic points near the Equator, the higher the altitude, the greater is the solar radiation.
Another variable to take into account is water, snow and sand, since they cause radiation to be reflected and therefore increase solar radiation.
How to use: apply on dry skin generously, ½ hour before sun exposure. Reapply frequently especially after swimming or toweling to maintain protection.
