Glamor starts with Sun Protection!
Our skin protects us from the day we enter this beautiful world, so PoolBar believes we should give it some love back and take care of it!
SPF, what does it mean?
SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. It is a measure of how much protection a sunscreen provides against the sun’s UV rays.
There are two forms of UV rays, UVA and UVB but what do they do to our skin? UVA can penetrate deeper in the skin and is the culprit for causing wrinkles and premature aging, err no thank you!!
UVB rays are the ones that cause sunburn and make us go “ouch” in the shower!! UVB is also linked to skin cancer.
So what do I wear to stay Protected and Gorgeous?
SPF 50
Our mineral SPF 50 body cream provides high protection for your skin.
It blocks 98% of UVB rays, offering a high-protection barrier against sun exposure.
Reapply every two hours to stay fully protected, and immediately after swimming, towel drying, and sweating.
SPF 30
Our mineral SPF 30 body cream provides high protection for your skin.
It blocks 97% of UVB rays, helping to keep your skin protected throughout the day.
Reapply every two hours to stay fully protected, and immediately after swimming, towel drying, and sweating.
Aftersun
Restore and replenish your skin after a day in the sun with our Sundowner Aftersun Lotion.
This formula helps to hydrate the skin, soothe irritation, and support recovery after sun exposure.
Infused with hyaluronic acid to hydrate the skin, aloe vera to soothe, and shea butter to lock in moisture, it leaves your skin feeling smooth and soft.
It is dermatologically tested for all skin types and is the ideal follow-up for sun-exposed skin.
How often should I apply my sunscreen?
Sunscreen should be reapplied a minimum of at least every two hours, regardless of the SPF level, as it can wear or rub off and always reapply after swimming, towel drying and excessive sweating.
Don’t forget your ears, nose and neck too.
To ramp up the level of glamor and protection, lounge under a parasol, particularly between 10 AM and 2 PM, and accessorize with your favorite hat, sunglasses, long-sleeved top, or flowy cover-up!
Should you wear SPF on cloudy days? Absolutely, 90% of the suns rays will pass through the clouds too.
So take care of your skin all year round and make SPF part of your daily ritual!
