Theoretically, applying sunscreen with a sun protection factor – - TopicsExpress



          

Theoretically, applying sunscreen with a sun protection factor – SPF – of 100 would allow beachgoers to bare their skin 100 times longer before suffering a sunburn. Someone who would normally redden after 30 minutes in the midday sun could stay out for 50 hours. But for high-SPF sunscreens, theory and reality are two different things. Many studies have found that people are misled by the claims on high SPF sunscreen bottles. They are more likely to use high SPF products improperly and as a result may expose themselves to more harmful ultraviolet radiation than people relying on products with lower SPF.
