Finding the Perfect Sunscreen for Summer

May 30, 2019

 

With summer only a few short weeks away, sunscreen is a hot item for many U.S. retailers! While it’s a good idea to wear sunscreen throughout the entire year, especially in warmer climates, it becomes a necessity during the sweltering summer months.

With the sun directly overhead for most of the day, the risks associated with sun exposure increase dramatically. To protect yourself from the summer sun, you want to pick the best sunscreen you can find, at a reasonable price. But luckily, you don’t need to spend a fortune to protect yourself.

To help you get the most for your money, we’ve done the research for you. We found the best deals on sunscreen from American retailers, so you’re guaranteed to stay protected during the warm summer months.

What You Want in A Sunscreen

  • When reading the labels on sunscreen, choose one that advertises “broad spectrum” protection. These types of sunscreen protect you from both UVB and UVA rays. Any sunscreen will protect you from UVB rays, as these are the main cause of burning and skin cancer. UVA rays also play a part in skin cancer and aging, however, so your goal should be to find a product that offers both.
  • Look for a sunscreen that offers you a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 30. This number is a way of gauging how well a sunscreen product will protect you from UVB rays. The higher the number, the better the protection. SPF 15 sunscreens are able to protect you from 93% of UVB rays, for example. You can find sunscreens all the way up to SPF 100, which will protect you from around 99% of the sun’s rays. In most cases, a standard SPF of between 30 and 50 will be fine.
  • Water resistance is another attribute that is handy to have in a sunscreen. It’s impossible for sunscreens to be completely waterproof, so you won’t find this claim on labels. If a product boasts water resistance, then it must list how long this resistance will last. Usually, sunscreens will be water resistant for between 40 and 80 minutes—so they’ll need to be reapplied multiple times throughout the day if you’re getting wet!
