Summary:
With so many sunscreens in the market, most people tend to get confused about SPF 30 and 50 and which one is better for your skin. While most people feel that a higher SPF is better, it may not be as effective as you think. Here are some things to keep in mind when choosing your SPF.
Everyone knows that the sun’s UV rays can be harmful to your skin and not only lead to dark patches but lines, wrinkles, and more making you age faster. Sunscreen helps protect your skin against the sun and choosing the right sunscreen gel SPF 50 can help protect your skin especially if you work outdoors or are heading for a weekend away to the beach.
Here are some things to consider when choosing the best SPF for your skin:
SPF 30:
Your SPF 30 silicone sunscreen gel only allows three percent of the harmful ultraviolet rays to penetrate your skin and helps prevent sunburn, rashes, redness, and irritation along with skin cancer. The number of the SPF will tell you how much it can protect your skin and the higher the number the more protection you get.
SPF 50:
SPF 50 gel will only allow two percent of the ultraviolet rays to penetrate your skin and while you may wonder if this one percent makes any difference at all or will impact your skin you need to keep something in mind. If you’re working in labs that have high ultraviolet rays or even working outdoors in the sun all day then SPF 50 is required and this prevents the exposure of harmful rays from entering your skin and allows you to work longer without applying it every now and then. These products are perfect for better protection, but keep in mind you need to apply them along with other skincare products especially if you are going swimming or spending hours in a hot environment.
Ideally a silicone sunscreen gel SPF 50 is much better than SPF 30 but this depends on where you are. For people that stay at home or work indoors and go out sometimes, SPF 30 is great. However, if you are exposed to prolonged sun exposure, SPF 50 is much better.
To Summarize:
No matter which sunscreen type you end up purchasing make sure that it suits your skin type and tone and that you reapply it often so that its effectiveness doesn’t wear away. Always look for high-end products that care for your skin along with offering you a high level of protection.
