UVA and UVB rays are extremely harmful to the skin, and can cause premature aging and sunburns. To protect your skin from the sun's rays, it is essential to apply sunscreen to all exposed areas. With regular and conscientious application of sunscreen, it is possible to avoid these harms while providing your skin with care that is adapted to its needs.

When applying sunscreen to your body, be sure to cover all areas exposed to the sun. Although difficult to reach, don't forget the upper back, as it is at risk of sunburns and sunspots. For optimal application, spread it in circular and light movements. This helps it penetrate your skin, increasing the effectiveness of its active ingredients.

When choosing body sunscreen, it is important to consider your skin type and the context in which it will be used. Light textures are ideal for oily skin, while moisturizing textures are more suitable for drier skin. Fair skin (phototypes 0, 1, and 2) tends to be more sensitive to sun exposure and can benefit from a higher sun protection factor (SPF). Ultimately, personal preferences play an important role in selecting a body sunscreen. The best sunscreen is the one you will want to apply daily.
