Hello.
No foundation, Milobina, and Manager Nonko are always welcome.
From spring to summer,
Using sunscreen as a measure against UV raysIt's the time of year when the numbers increase.
However, if you choose or use sunscreen incorrectly, it may not be as effective as you'd hoped in protecting yourself from UV rays.
This is especially true for those who have made it a daily routine.
I would like you to reconfirm this in this article.
Sunscreen
It's not simply a matter of applying it.
Even though I use sunscreen every day,
If your skin is dull or you have more blemishes,
Perhaps you're using sunscreen incorrectly.
What's important is,
Understand the difference between UVA and UVB.
Choose a sunscreen that suits your skin,

This time,
How to choose sunscreen and the basics of reapplying it to maintain its effectivenessI would like to talk about that.
Important points to consider when choosing sunscreen
In areas with strong UV radiation, choosing the right sunscreen is extremely important.
For example, I often go to Australia, where the UV rays are strong.
Sunscreen, which is more important than when you're in Japan, isn't something you can just use any product on.
When choosing sunscreen, the following two things are important:
- It can protect against both UVB and UVA rays.
- Avoid unnecessary irritation to the skin.
Because I have somewhat sensitive skin, I've always had trouble choosing sunscreen.
Even those without sensitive skin may find that sunscreens are generally quite irritating.
Using it every day can unknowingly irritate your skin, which can lead to the formation of blemishes.
Whether you have resilient skin or not, choosing a gentle sunscreen is good for the future of your skin.
The difference between UVA and UVB
It's also important to know about the different types of ultraviolet rays and how to protect yourself from them.
There are mainly two types of ultraviolet light.
UVB
→ Ultraviolet rays cause sunburn and inflammation.
The wavelength is short (meaning it doesn't penetrate deeply), and the stimulation is strong.
UVA
Ultraviolet rays penetrate deep into the skin, causing blemishes, wrinkles, and sagging.
Because the wavelength is long (meaning it penetrates deeper) and the stimulus is less intense, it is often overlooked.
Both types of UV rays should be avoided as much as possible. Therefore, when choosing sunscreen,
SPF (UVB protection)
PA (UVA protection)
It is important to check both.
Reapplying sunscreen is important.
And sunscreen is
Applying it once in the morning is not enough.
To maintain the effect
Repainting is very important.
On days when I'm staying home, I usually don't need to reapply it after applying it in the morning, but it's important to reapply it when I go out.
Reapply after 2-3 hours.
This is the basic principle of sunscreen.
Because sunscreen wears off over time.
It might seem a little troublesome, but
Whether or not you reapply sunscreen makes a big difference in its effectiveness against UV rays, so it's a good idea to make reapplication a habit.
Since sunscreen is used every day, choose it carefully.
Sunscreen is only necessary if it blocks ultraviolet rays.
Alternatively, if you prefer something that doesn't leave a white cast and provides high transparency,
While there are many factors involved, sunscreens that don't leave a white cast and give the skin a translucent, natural look almost always use nanoparticles.
It is unknown what effects nanoparticles have once they enter the body through the skin.
When considering your health, I think it's important to choose sunscreen carefully.
As you can see, choosing the right sunscreen is actually quite difficult.
However, a sunscreen made with safe ingredients and suited to your skin will surely protect it gently yet effectively.
Please find the perfect sunscreen for you.
