Reasons to avoid Nivea Soft Light Moisturiser:
Comes without SPF.
NIVEA Nourishing Day Cream is enriched with natural Almond Oil and natural Magnolia Extract. The formula with NIVEA Moisture Care Complex deeply moisturises your skin up to 24 hours, balancing your skin's own moisture level. In addition, the cream with SPF 15 offers protection against sunlight-induced influences.
Sunscreens such as NIVEA UV Face Q10 Anti-Age & Anti-Pigments SPF30 have been specially developed for the sensitive skin on your face, and with SPF protection, make them a perfect everyday moisturiser.
Get instant protection from harsh sunrays with NIVEA Protect and Moisture Sun Lotion SPF 50. Its fast absorbing formula with advanced collagen protection prevents wrinkles.
There's a reason why Nivea is a family favourite when it comes to sun cream. This baby and children-specific sun cream is a good consistency, meaning that it absorbs into the skin nicely without too much effort, while offering full coverage with a high UVA and SPF protection factors.
Your skin needs more protection when you're on holiday: even though all NIVEA Sun products are suitable for the face, your skin will thank you if you use a special face sunscreen.
The Nivea Sun moisturising lotion comes with SPF 50 and has been designed to provide instant protection to your skin from UVA-UVB rays.
Its immediate absorption formula provides advanced collagen protection that prevents wrinkles, it restores the skin s moisture lost due to sun exposure and is non-oily, non-greasy and water resistant.
Higher SPF numbers do mean more protection, but the higher you go, the smaller the difference becomes. SPF 15 sunscreens filter out about 93% of UVB rays, while SPF 30 sunscreens filter out about 97%, SPF 50 sunscreens about 98%, and SPF 100 about 99%. No sunscreen protects you completely.
The sunscreen feels slightly heavy and sticky while leaving an oily sheen on the skin. It also leaves a slight white cast that some people may not like. I only use it on my body because it is too heavy and oily for facial skin. So, it's better you don't put it on your face.
Reliable sun protection for your face
The new NIVEA SUN Protect & Bronze Face Cream for the face with SPF 30 and SPF 50 provides reliable UVA and UVB protection and supports a beautiful tan at the same time.
1)It is moisturiser + sunscreen body lotion. 2)It is suitable for all skin types. 3)It is non-comedogenic.
A sunscreen with SPF 30 will protect you from around 96.7% of UVB rays, whereas an SPF of 50 means protection from about 98% of UVB rays. Anything beyond SPF 50 makes very little difference in terms of risk of sun damage, and no sunscreens offer 100% protection from UVB rays.
Who Needs Sunscreen? Every child needs sun protection. The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) recommends that all kids — regardless of their skin tone — wear sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher.
Put another way, if your unprotected skin would take ten minutes to show signs of burning, then properly applying SPF 30 sunscreen would slow the rate of burning to the point where it would take 30 times longer, or 300 minutes in total. SPF 15 would take 150 minutes, while SPF 50, 500 minutes.
Experts say sunscreens with an SPF higher than 50 aren't worth buying. They only offer marginally better protection. They might also encourage you to stay out in the sun longer. Instead, choose an SPF between 15 and 50, apply liberally, and reapply often.
You'll want to use about . 04 ounces of sunscreen on your face, which equates to the size of a nickel or 1/4 to 1/3 of a teaspoon. Don't forget your neck, area behind your ears, temples, or hairline.
“You're not too young to start a daily sun protection routine. After moisturising, reach for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or higher and apply as directed.” Plus, Dr Bhatia points out that hormonal changes can cause pigmentation, and a good SPF can help counteract that.
The short answer is everyone! Men, women and children over 6 months of age should use sunscreen every day. This includes people who tan easily and those who don't — remember, your skin is damaged by sun exposure over your lifetime, whether or not you burn.
If you're using a chemical sunscreen, it needs to be applied first. This is because chemical sunscreen needs to penetrate the skin in order to provide protection. However, if you're using a physical sunscreen (also known as mineral sunscreen), sunscreen should be applied after moisturizer.
Higher SPF sunscreens contains higher concentrations of chemical sunscreen ingredients. It is scientifically shown that chemical (organic) sunscreen ingredients can be absorbed into the skin, and when struck by UV radiation, these can become quite aggressive free radicals, increasing the risk of damage.
Dermatologists recommend using an SPF of at least 30, which Adarsh Vijay Mudgil, MD, a dermatologist practicing in New York, calls "the magic number". SPF 15 blocks about 93 percent of UVB rays, while SPF 30 blocks about 97 percent of UVB rays. The ADA recommends an SPF of 30 or higher.
The SPF 50 provides adequate protection for your skin by forming a protective layer on the skin that shields it from UVA and UVB rays. The lotion is ideal for skin tones found in India. It absorbs quickly and can also be worn under makeup. It is suitable for all skin types because it is both non-sticky and hydrating.
