Shiesedo Perfect UV Protector Spf 50+ PA++++ ( my favorite sunscreen)

Hello Dolls,
We all know that applying sunscreen on everyday basis can prevent skin cancers but do you know that a good sunscreen can help prevent premature aging? Yups, It's crucial to apply sunscreen with high SPF. A 2013 study concluded that the diligent, everyday application of sunscreen can slow or temporarily prevent the development of wrinkles and sagging skin.The SPF (sun protection factor) is the amount of UV radiation required to cause sunburn on skin with the sunscreen on, as a multiple of the amount required without the sunscreen during 1 hour.For example, if you usually get a sunburn in 10 minutes when outside unprotected, you should not burn for 150 minutes if you are wearing an SPF15 product.However, we should know about the differences between UV A and UV B. UV B rays are short waves and it can cause sunburns. It is basically can damage your outer layers of your skin. On the other hand,UV A rays  are long waves that are less intense than UV B rays, but more powerful and can penetrate through clouds and glass windows.It penetrates to your deeper layers of your skin. It  is most likely the cause of premature aging and wrinkles.

The The SPF rating system was developed back in 1962 by Franz Greiter to measure the capacity of a sunscreen to block UVB radiation. The current SPF rating system applies to UVB rays only, since those are the rays that cause sunburn.

SPF-15-30-50 Guide:
 •15- 1/15 of the UVB rays get through to your skin - blocking about 93%.
•30- 1/30 of the UVB rays get through to your skin - blocking about 97%.
•50- 1/50 of the UVB rays get through to your skin - blocking about 98%.


In the USA,broad spectrum means you'll be protected from UVA and UVB rays. UVAs are the culprits of aging and skin cancer, while UVBs are the ones that lead to sunburn. Sunblock is not sunscreen, though, so make sure you buy a product with broad-spectrum protection.
 
So what does PA+++ mean? PA is a Japanese rating system in place before the new regulations that was a way to show how much protection you are receiving from UVA rays. You will see either PA+, PA++, or PA+++ on the label, with more + signs meaning a higher level of UVA protection.


Now, I will give some thoughts about my favorite sunscreen Shiseido Perfect UV protector SPF 50+PA++++ very water resistant. I am in love with this product because of its benefits.

A very water-resistant sun protection lotion that provides reliable defense against UV rays while offering advanced skincare benefits.
