Chloe Lambert's article in The Daily Mail: 23: 43 on May 28, 2012, EDT | update: 07: 08 on May 29, 2012, there is a reliable way to know that the UK has started the summer --
This is the scene of lobster. red, sorry-
People who come home from the park or the beach look miserable.
In fact, although our recent surge in temperatures can easily match those in southern Europe, research by Macmillan Cancer Support charity has found that only 25 women use sunscreen in the UK, the third one is low.
Protective cream with SPF 10 or less.
Carol Goodman says you are as likely to get burned in the UK as you are abroad, and more than 2,500 people die of skin cancer each year, which is a real problem, McMillan information Nurse Specialist
However, other experts have recently warned that more and more Britons lack vitamin D that is vital to bones and teeth, which is caused by our paranoia about the dangers of the sun.
Is it worth choosing a more expensive product?
With the help of an expert dermatologist, health answers your question about sun protection, Dr. Marvin Patterson, a cosmetic dermatologist at Woodford Medical Clinic in Essex, he ruled on the popular sunscreen, and then we rated the five products.
So, how much sunscreen do you really need?
The radiation of the Sun reaches the Earth in the form of ultraviolet a and ultraviolet B.
It is ultraviolet rays that cause sunburn, and studies have shown that this may lead to some forms of skin cancer.
Sunscreen factor of the product (SPF)
Is an indicator of how long you can stay in the sun without burning compared to normal conditions.
For example, if you normally burn in ten minutes without protection, then using the sun screen of SPF 30 means that in theory you can spend 300 minutes in the sun without burning.
Dr. Hillary Allen, a dermatologist at Woodford's medical aesthetics, said anything below 20 times is a waste of time: "I recommend wearing clothes between the ages of 30 and 50.
Dr Veronique Bataille, a dermatologist at Princess Grace Hospital in London, said that if you are fair, if you are in the hot sun, don't be less than 30 times.
"If you're using factor 30, even if you're not using it well --
Most people do this.
You are still well protected for two to three hours.
If you use something a little lower than this, you will miss a little and you will get burned.
However, 15 to 20 times is enough if you lie in the British Sun.
Professor Julia Newton says the key is to understand your own skin --
Bishop, dermatologist, University Hospital of St. James, Leeds.
"Come up with what you have to do to prevent burning --
I mean pink instead of blistering.
If you want to tan?
Don't sunbathe.
Use artificial tanning.
Anyway, who wants a red shiny nose?
Star rating refers to the protection of ultraviolet rays of the sun.
The damage caused by these rays is not very easy to see as they do not cause the skin to turn red.
Instead, they penetrate deep into the surface of the skin, leading to more severe malignant melanoma and premature aging. Some —but not all —
The cream uses a star rating from 1 to 5 to indicate the amount of UVA protection they provide.
Always choose five sunscreen
Star rating, Dr. Allen said.
To use sunscreen at recommended speed, use generous fingerprints in each area
One on the face, one on the neck, etc.
You will cover the entire adult body with about 35 ml, which means that the two will pass a standard 200 ml bottle in about two days.
Professor Newton said, "30 minutes before you go out to the sun, your first application, so it's absorbed by the top layer of the skin --"Bishop.
Be sure to re-apply after swimming, but wait until the skin is dry before applying, otherwise it will not work.
Experts agree that the most important thing is to find the sunscreen you like to use.
Spray is easy to apply, Dr. Allen said, meaning people are more likely to apply it thoroughly and repeatedly.
Others warn, however, that people do not always use a spray thick enough.
Sunscreen has two effects.
They usually contain chemical components that absorb the light of the sun, such as avobenzone, or "physical" or natural compounds that reflect the light of the skin, such as zinc oxide.
Dr Bataille said waterproof sunscreen uses a specific balance of chemical and physical ingredients that stick to your skin in different ways when you are in water.
But she warned that "they are not foolproof," so she re-applied after swimming.
If you have eczema and allergies, she recommends using a "physical" cream (
Select products containing zinc oxide and titanium dioxide)
"These things are placed on the skin and don't seem to cause any irritation ".
"The more expensive sunscreen may smell good and will not feel greasy, but all of these products are very good in terms of efficacy and you will not endanger your health by choosing a cheaper product, dr. batayer said. Dark-
Professor Newton says people with skin are more likely to lack vitamin D levelsBishop.
High levels of pigment melanin are believed to prevent human cells from synthesizing sunlight into vitamin D.
So what we don't want is olives and darkness.
People with skin wear high SPF religiously because they sacrifice their vitamin D.
Don't let yourself get burned, but don't be paranoid.
Trade fair recommended by experts
The skin is sunbathing in hot weather, three times a week, about 20 minutes each time, without sunscreen.
However, if you burn faster than this, reduce the time.
