Refusal to consult a dermatologist. In Russia, this is available free of charge compared to compulsory health insurance policy in any clinic. A specialist will help to determine the photootype of the skin, to assess individual risks associated with moles and pigment points, take into account possible allergic reactions and choose the most appropriate protection tools.
Save the amount of cream. If the product is applied with a thin layer, you can get SPF 15 or less instead of SPF 50. For a fully covered coating of an adult body, about two tablespoons of sunscreen or 30 ml. The quantity and neck should go to the amount of money -sized cream in the hands and legs – a lane with a length of the body and back on the index finger (and for each limb) – a ribbon on the index finger (and for each limb). If the cream is applied properly, a slight film should remain on the skin.
False storage of the cream. Under the influence of high temperatures and direct sunlight, the components in the sun cream are rapidly destroyed. If the consistency has changed, the lumps have emerged, the color or odor has changed – the product needs to be discarded.
Passing some skin areas. Most of the time we forget to apply sunscreen on the ears, eyelids, lips, nape, hands and feet. According to statistics, most cases of oncology occur in such areas.
Inappropriate SPF. There are four main photos. The symptoms of the first are very bright skin, blonde or red hair, freckles. Such people require SPF 50+. A medium-sized skin, dark or brown hair (SPF 15-30), the fourth-fourth-skinned and dark hair (SPF 15 or even lack of protection) for the third fair skin, yellow or blonde hair (SPF 30-50).
Ignoring protection in Shadow and Cloud Weather. Even in the shade, you are exposed to UV radiation. Thus, water can reflect the UV beam up to 80%, sand – about 25%, snow – more than 80%. The same applies to even for concrete or ordinary grass.
A time application of the product for the whole day. Sunscreen should be applied in the sun every two hours.
