How Important Is Sunscreen | Mario Badescu Skincare

How Important is it to Wear Sunscreen?

Tweaking your skincare wardrobe for the colder seasons is essential but hold on a second, don’t put that bottle of daily sunscreen at the back of your bathroom cabinet.  Summer might be coming to an end but the ultraviolet (UV) radiation is here to stay. That’s why sunscreen is one of the most important steps in every skincare regimen, any day of the year. When applied and reapplied correctly, sun protection products help safeguard the skin from the damaging effects of UV rays. These harmful effects include premature aging, sun spots, wrinkles, rough skin, sunburns and skin cancer. Sunscreen should be applied all year round, regardless of how sunny it is. The invisible but always present UV radiation can be damaging even on cloudy and grey days, as up to 80% of the sun’s UV rays still reach the earth.

What are The Types of UV rays?

There are two types of UV rays which can affect skin and it is crucial to protect your skin from two of their forms. Look for the words ”broad spectrum” on the label of the sunscreen.

UVB rays – mainly responsible for sunburns, they play a key role in developing skin cancer.UVA rays – can penetrate deeper into the skin which can lead to significant and long-term concerns, such as photodamage and premature aging.

  Sunscreen Ingredients

What is Chemical Sunscreen vs Physical Sunscreen

Sunscreen products are formulated with active ingredients that prevent the radiation from reaching the skin. 

Chemical sunscreen ingredients – absorb the UV rays and stop them from penetrating the skin. Some of the most popular chemical sunscreen ingredients are Avobenzone, Octisalate and Oxybenzone. Physical (also known as mineral) sunscreen filters – these ingredients block the UV rays before they penetrate the skin. They include the minerals Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide that reflect the sun’s UV rays and both offer broad-spectrum protection. Mineral sunscreen is more suitable for people with sensitive, acne- and redness-prone skin and is usually recommended for children, as well.

What Does SPF Rating Stand For?

SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor and the number beside it indicates how well the sunscreen protects your skin against sunburn. SPF 50+ filters about 98% of UVB rays, while SPF 30 filters about 97%, so there is a very small difference between them. SPF 15 filters out approximately 93% of the incoming UVB rays. No SPF can block 100% of the UV rays.
