What does it mean that Malibu SPF4 Lotion is photostable?
It is important to use a photostable sunscreen like Malibu SPF4 Lotion because it remains effective in protecting the skin from UV damage and degradation even when exposed to light, such as UV exposure. Without photostability, sunscreens may heavily rely on other sun protection factors like hats and full-length clothing to safeguard their integrity. Therefore, using a photostable sunscreen ensures proper protection from the sun without degrading on the skin or in its packaging before use.
Why is broad-spectrum protection important in a sunscreen?
Broad-spectrum protection in a sunscreen, like Malibu SPF4 Lotion, is crucial because it shields the skin from both UVA and UVB rays. UVB rays are known to cause sunburns and harm the outermost layers of the skin, while UVA rays penetrate deeper into the skin, leading to premature ageing, wrinkles, DNA damage, and skin cancer. In the past, many sunscreens only protected against UVB rays, but now, with the increased awareness of the dangers of UVA radiation, manufacturers have started to incorporate ingredients that protect against both types of rays to provide complete protection to the skin.
How often do I need to reapply Malibu SPF4 Lotion?
Malibu SPF4 Lotion is water resistant for 40 minutes, so it is recommended to reapply it after that time. However, even if you are not in water, it is suggested to reapply the lotion at least every 2 hours to effectively protect your skin. This will ensure that your skin is protected from harmful UV rays throughout the day
What does "SPF4" mean in Malibu SPF4 Lotion?
The term "SPF4" in Malibu SPF4 Lotion stands for sun protection factor 4, indicating that the lotion allows you to stay in the sun for four times longer before experiencing sunburn compared to not using any sunscreen. For instance, an SPF4 sunscreen blocks out at least 75% of UV rays.
