5 things you should know before buying sunscreen
 Star and YouTube beauty guru Michelle Phan (Michelle Phan) this week, talks about how to buy the best sunscreen for yourself.

"Even if you're not good at math, there are some figures that will have to remember. One of these figures - an indicator of SPF, sun protection factor.

1. SPF does not stack up, in simple mathematical problems. For example, if you use both SPF 10 and SPF 30, it will not result in SPF 40. However, I do not mind if you use, for example, a moisturizer with SPF 10 sunscreen, and with SPF 30. Because so It reduces the likelihood that some portion of the skin in general left unprotected, but at least one means fall on any area of ​​skin.

2. SPF record 30 does not protect two times greater than SPF 15. Protection is definitely big, because it covers a wider range of short waves.

3. Do not dilute the SPF. If the means of make-up SPF (eg, foundation) to mix with a moisturizer with a lower index of SPF, the common factor of protection is reduced. Therefore, any means to buy the same level of SPF, or make-up without any SPF, only to moisturizing sunscreen or protect you.

4. Protection from the sun - it's not just sunscreen. On the beach you need to take more points, umbrella, hat, white clothes, scarves and shawls.

5. No sunscreen is not waterproof, even if it is written on it. Therefore, during the update of the day costs coating, water-resistant creams and kept this quality from 40 to 80 minutes. "
