SPF - (Sun Protection Factor) indicates the level of UVB rays that causes damage to the skin. Using an SPF daily reduces the risk of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and sunburn. It reduces the risk of melanoma by 50% and helps to prevent the sign of ageing.
We often reach for sunscreen on holidays and during the summer months, but it’s better to wear an SPF every day of the year. Even on an overcast and cloudy day UVB rays can still damage the skin.
