Does sunlight reach the skin underwater? 

If you like swimming, surfing, windsurfing, or another outdoor sport, you've probably already wondered if you can get burned underwater. 

Many people think that if you are in the water you are completely protected from the sun rays, but actually, UV rays penetrate the water. For example, if you are diving 1 meter underwater, 50% of UVB rays and 75% of UVA rays continue to reach your skin. 

Since you can still get burned while swimming, it's always a good idea to apply a waterproof Sunscreen Gel that offers effective protection. 

Don't forget to reapply regularly, especially after toweling yourself dry. 

Saltwater v/s freshwater 

Freshwater is produced in the atmosphere and appears as rain, mist, and snow. In the salty water, the body floats more, the reason why it is exposed to a higher percentage of UV rays. However, applying a waterproof sunscreen is just as important in both.  

Sun and Skin Cancer 

Although the ozone layer in the atmosphere protects humans from much of the solar radiation, both UVB and UVA radiation can pass through this layer and cause problems for our skin. 

UVB radiation is the main cause of skin burns and UVA is the cause of premature aging and wrinkles. 

And both types of radiation cause skin cancer. 

With the increasing incidence of this disease in many countries around the world, particularly malignant melanoma (the deadliest form of skin cancer), experts have long been calling for raising awareness among the population about the best way to protect themselves. 

The new regulations will end fortune-telling to choose an effective sunscreen. And they will help consumers make informed decisions about how to buy and use sunscreen and take other steps to protect their skin. 

What Dermatologist says 

However, so far very little has been done to allow people to differentiate between a true sunscreen for tanning

Until now, regulations in most countries require that all sunscreens that are sold present on their labels a classification of SPF -the sun protection factor, the laboratory measure that informs the user of the efficiency with which a filter will protect your skin. 

But in general, this measure only includes protection against UVB radiation. 

Additionally, most products often claim that they "help prevent skin burns and premature aging" or "help reduce the risks of skin cancer." 

New FDA regulations indicate that as of now only sunscreens offering an SPF of 50 or higher will be able to make those claims. 

Only those who demonstrate both UVB and UVA protection can claim to offer "broad spectrum" protection. 

And instead of stating that the product is "waterproof or sweatproof," the manufacturer will be allowed to present, in minutes, the amount of time that the lotion or cream can remain underwater, based on laboratory tests.

FAQ - Sunscreen Gel 

What differentiates UVA from UVB rays? What effects do different types of radiation have? 

They have different wavelengths, which translates into different penetration and effects on the skin. 

What exactly does the SPF number correspond to? 

The SPF is a factor that must be individualized to each subject. If a person knows that without sun protection, they can be exposed to the sun without risk of solar erythema for 10 minutes, with an SPF 5 sunscreens they will indicate that they can be exposed for 50 minutes. But on another person who can safely be exposed for 5 minutes, SPF 50 sunscreens will only protect you for 25 minutes. 

If I use a face protector with SPF 30 and then apply a foundation with SPF 20 protection, does the protection add up, and is it and SPF 50? 

No. Each product has a specific SPF and not by applying them in a row they add up. The one with the highest protection prevails, in this case, SPF 30. Go for SPF 50 Sunscreen Gel.
