P20 SPOTLIGHT

People of all ages enjoy relaxing and having fun in the sun but to enjoy the sun responsibly, you need a sunscreen that delivers effective protection. A sunscreen that protects the whole family, no matter how you like to spend time outdoors. P20 is proven to work for up to 10 hours thanks to a very stable formulation, keeping the time spent applying and re-applying sun protection to a minimum. P20 keeps you and your family safe at the beach or by the pool, maintaining intact protection levels even after 4 x 20 minutes in the water, leaving non-greasy skin due to its unique transparent lightweight consistency. This fully documented water resistance has earned P20 Europe’s highest water resistance rating for suncare products. With new multi-angle spray technology, P20 Continuous Spray makes applying sun protection to those hard to reach areas much easier.

P20 offers reliable UVB protection as well as very high UVA protection that shields the skin from sun-related damage and premature ageing. It includes UVA protection at a level that far exceeds EU recommendation and is rated at 5 out of 5 stars. P20 contains no fragrance and colourants, making it suitable for the whole family.

Fun in the Sun Without The Damage 

This summer, this very day might be the perfect time to start your perfecting habit. We need to protect our super delicate skin now because no miracle cream can repair the sun damage later. It’s not just about beauty either. Our children and our families need serious protection and careful attention. Sun damage and UV damage can lead to skin cancer. Skin cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Ireland. With good skin protection this can be avoided. Sun is good, it lifts our mood, provides us with great Vitamin D, we just need to take it seriously and invest in high quality sunscreens. Wraparound sunglasses with UV protection are also a good call. And do remember, that sunscreen is just one of the ways to protect ourselves, wearing sun hats, covering up in intense sun and staying in the shade in peak sun hours are also key.

 

The real trick is to discover the sunscreen that works for you and your family. Do you prefer a stick, or a lotion? An all-day protector, like P20. Or a slap it on throughout the day classic. Is your skin sensitive, will you be swimming, wearing make-up, standing on a hot, sticky bus?

 

TOP TIPS TO CHOOSING A SUNSCREEN FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen that protects against UVA and UVB Rays.

 

UV Rays - UV stands for ultra violet.

 

UVA rays - cause long-term sun damage.All the things we really do not want likesunspots, wrinkles and sagging skin.

 

UVB rays - cause sunburn and have strong links to skin cancer. Sunscreens are given UV ratings. Go for a cream or lotion with a 4 to 5 rating.

 

SPF - SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. For families with kids, you really need an SPF of 30, ideally 50. Apply 20 minutes before you head out and top up every two hours. Avoid being in the sun when it’s at its hottest (between 11am and 3pm)

 

Daily UV Index - A daily UV index is available online. A UV index score of 3 or more is harmful. You can check the UV index online everyday.

 

Swap out old sunscreen - You may have sunscreen left over from last summer. Remember though, it does go off. Most will have a shelf life of 12 to 18 months.

 

Best for kids - Keep your kids out of the hottest sun, give them hats, baggy clothing and sunglasses. Choose a sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher with a UV rating over 4. Layer the cream on thickly and reapply often.
