The ultimate protection for sensitive skin!
Protecting your skin throughout the year is vital, especially during the summer months when we spend more time outdoors. And what better way to protect your skin, than to go for a sunscreen with the highest Sun Protection Factor (SPF), right? Wrong! New research shows that higher SPFs used on the face are more likely to irritate sensitive skin.
DermaProtect SPF 20 replaces the DermaBlock SPF 30
DermaProtect SPF 20 offers gentle protection against harmful UVA rays (ageing) and UVB rays (burning).
Applying a lower SPF on your face more regularly, offers the same protection as a high SPF.
Our NEW formula, DermaProtect SPF 20 is the ultimate shield for sensitive skins!
DermaProtect SPF 20 offers a lower SPF than the DermaBlock SPF 30. It is ideal for sensitive skins. Tested and approved by the international COLIPA standards, it delivers consistent SPF coverage and provides the ultimate protection, without irritating your skin. It is proven that higher SPFs may easily irritate skin as it can clog pores and stop the skin from breathing. Using a lower SPF more frequently will still offer maximum protection and lead to a lower risk of irritation to very sensitive skin types.
This unique, triple-action, sun-protecting cream:
1 soothes
2 moisturises
3 protects even delicate, sensitive skins
What does SPF mean?
The abbreviation SPF on sun care packaging stands for Sun Protection Factor, and refers to how well the sunscreen protects against UV radiation. Because UV radiation can still penetrate through your sunscreen and into your skin, the SPF number on the packaging gives you a rough indication of how long it will take for your skin to turn red when exposed to sunlight. Theoretically, if you use a sunscreen with an SPF 15, it will prevent your skin from getting red for approximately 15 times longer than had you not used a sunscreen. So for example, if you normally start to burn within 10 minutes of being in sunlight, the sunscreen with an SPF 15 will prevent burning for approximately 150 minutes, or 2.5 hours. Using a lower SPF means you have to apply sunscreen more often.
