What is a Sunscreen?
Sunscreen is a skincare product designed to protect the skin from the harmful effects of the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It forms a protective barrier on the skin, reducing the risk of sunburn, premature aging, and skin cancer by blocking or absorbing UV rays.
Types of Sunscreens: Chemical vs. Physical
Sunscreens generally fall into two categories:
- Chemical Sunscreens: These contain ingredients like Octocrylene, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, and Benzophenone-3, which absorb UV radiation and convert it into heat, which is then released from the skin.
- Physical Sunscreens: Also called mineral sunscreens, these contain ingredients like Zinc Oxide that sit on top of the skin and physically deflect UV rays.
What is SPF and PA Rating?
- SPF (Sun Protection Factor) measures the level of protection a sunscreen provides against UVB rays, which cause sunburn and can contribute to skin cancer. Higher SPF
means greater protection. With SPF 50, Sunscreen offers powerful defense, blocking 98% of UVB rays. - PA Rating indicates protection from UVA rays, which penetrate deeper into the skin, causing long-term damage such as wrinkles and skin aging. The more “+” signs after PA (e.g., PA+++), the higher the UVA protection.
Understanding UVA and UVB Rays
- UVA Rays: These rays penetrate the skin deeply and contribute to skin aging, wrinkles, and tanning. They can also increase the risk of skin cancer over time. UVA is associated with “photoaging.”
- UVB Rays: These rays are the primary cause of sunburn and play a significant role in developing skin cancer. UVB is responsible for immediate damage like sunburns.
