PRISM GLOW Spf 70+++

“SPF 70+++” is a high Sun Protection Factor (SPF) sunscreen, and the “PA+++” refers to its protection against UVA rays. Let’s break down the benefits:

Benefits of SPF 70 PA+++ Sunscreen:
* Superior UVB Protection: While the difference in percentage blocked between SPF 50 and SPF 70 is minimal, SPF 70 provides a slightly higher degree of protection against UVB rays, significantly reducing the risk of sunburn. This can be particularly beneficial for:
* Individuals with very fair or sensitive skin prone to burning.
* People who spend extended periods outdoors in intense sun conditions (e.g., beach vacations, hiking at high altitudes, outdoor sports).
* Those with a history of or high risk for skin cancer.
* Excellent UVA Protection: The “PA+++” rating signifies strong protection against UVA rays. This helps to:
* Prevent premature skin aging: Minimizing wrinkles, fine lines, and sunspots.
* Reduce hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone caused by sun exposure.
* Contribute to overall skin health and reduce the risk of long-term sun damage.
* Enhanced Protection Even with Imperfect Application: Studies suggest that high SPF sunscreens (like SPF 70 and above) can still provide a good level of protection even when applied at less-than-ideal amounts (which is common in real-world usage). This acts as a buffer, ensuring you receive adequate sun protection despite less-than-perfect application.
* Ideal for Intense Sun Exposure: If you are exposed to strong sunlight, such as during peak summer hours, in tropical climates, or at high altitudes, an SPF 70 PA+++ offers a robust defense against harmful UV radiation.
* Multi-functional Benefits (Product Dependent): Many SPF 70 PA+++ sunscreens now offer additional benefits like:
* Anti-tanning: Helps to prevent excessive tanning.
* Anti-pollution: Some formulations offer protection against environmental pollutants.
* Moisturizing: Prevents skin from drying out.
* Water and sweat resistance: Crucial for outdoor activities.
* Tinted formulas: Can provide a slight “BB glow” or act as a makeup primer.
Important Considerations:
* No sunscreen provides 100% protection. Even with SPF 70+++, it’s crucial to practice other sun-safe behaviors:
* Seek shade, especially during peak sun hours (10 AM to 4 PM).
* Wear protective clothing (hats, sunglasses, long sleeves).
* Reapply sunscreen frequently: Every two hours, or more often if swimming or sweating.
* “Broad-spectrum” is key: Always ensure your sunscreen is labeled “broad-spectrum” to protect against both UVA and UVB rays. The PA rating indicates UVA protection, confirming it’s broad-spectrum.
