What Should We Pay Attention to When Choosing Sunscreen for Our Skin Health?

Summer is just around the corner... Sunscreen, recommended for use throughout the year, becomes even more crucial for you and your family during the summer months. There are many precautions we can take to protect ourselves from the sun, which can cause numerous harmful effects, including burns, blemishes, premature aging, and skin cancer.

So, what are these measures?

  • Avoid being under the sun for long periods of time
  • Get into the habit of using sunglasses and hats, and wearing sun-appropriate clothing.
  • Be careful not to go out in the sun between 10:00 and 16:00 when UV rays are strong.
  • Using sunscreen cream daily for the face and neck area
  • Apply sunscreen with a protection factor of 30 or higher to your entire body when at the seaside or poolside and renew it every two hours.

The purpose of sunscreen is to provide complete protection from the sun's rays or minimize the harmful effects of UV radiation. Choosing the right sunscreen with organic filters is crucial.

What should the correct and ideal sunscreen be like?

  • It must have full protection against UVA and UVB.
  • It must be non-toxic, comply with sun protection standards, and not contain any chemical ingredients.
  • It should not cause skin irritation.
  • Must be stable against sweat and water

Bionnex Preventiva Series sun protection filters are specifically selected to protect skin from the harmful effects of UVA and UVB rays, while their formula, enhanced with Vitamin E, provides powerful moisturizing and antioxidant effects. Hordeum vulgare seed powder absorbs sebum, preventing stickiness and unwanted shine.

Moisturizing your skin after sun exposure is also crucial for healthy skin. You can find support in this area with our ultra-moisturizing body and face creams in our Perfederm Series.
