Toxins in Sunscreen

☠Toxic Tuesday☠
Sunscreen comes with a lot of misconceptions and sometimes a lot of toxins ☠
People often think an SPF 30 means you can stay out twice as long as with an SPF 15. ☀️☀️The fact is an SPF 15 protects against 93% of UVB rays while SPF 30 provides 97% protection. Anything above a 30 is considered a marketing ploy. 😔

SPF ratings only includes UVB rays. You should look for a sunscreen that also states “broad spectrum”, and contains titanium dioxide or zinc oxide for UVA protection.
The general issue is most people do not apply enough sunscreen for proper coverage, nor do they reapply often enough. (Every 2 hours and after getting wet!) Read your labels, apply generously and reapply often!✔️

☀️Does it matter which you apply first sunscreen or moisturizer?❓❓❓
