The summer sun is always hot, all MM should be exposed to the skin rubbed with sunscreen. But have you ever tried to rub the sunscreen also tanned? The people analyze sunscreen 7 big misconceptions, let us be vigilant, together to avoid.

Myth 1: Apply the sunscreen everything is fine

The use of sunscreen must reach the standard amount to have an effect. Usually the amount of sunscreen applied to the skin is 2 milligrams per square centimeter in order to achieve the proper sunscreen effect.

Myth 2: The higher the SPF value, the better the sun protection effect

SPF, or sun protection factor, is calculated in this way: the average yellow skin can withstand the sun for 15 minutes without being burned, so the use of SPF15 UV light products, there will be about 225 minutes (15 minutes x SPF15) of sun protection time, so the SPF means the skin against the UV time multiplier. You can use SPF5-8 sunscreen for daily care, shopping and shopping, and SPF10-15 sunscreen when you go out for fun. When swimming or sunbathing, use SPF 20-30 waterproof sunscreen.

Myth #4: SPF can be added up

Apply two layers of SPF 10 sunscreen, both with only SPF 10 protection.

Myth 5: Apply sunscreen only when you are about to go out

Sunscreen, like general skin care products, takes a certain amount of time to be absorbed into the skin. So 10-20 minutes before going out should be coated with sunscreen, and 30 minutes before going to the beach should be coated.

Myth 6: Sunscreen can not be used before applying makeup

Now the new isolation cream, the purpose of which is to form a protective layer between makeup, sunlight, dust and skin.

Myth 7: Choose sunscreens according to previous skin type

Summer due to the different oil secretion, skin texture will change, should do another skin texture test.
