Sunscreen agents can block UVA and UVB in ultraviolet rays:

Sunlight contains various types of rays, including infrared, visible light, and ultraviolet (UV) rays. Among them, ultraviolet rays (UV) are the most damaging to the skin. UV is divided into long-wave ultraviolet (UVA, 315-400nm), medium-wave ultraviolet (UVB, 290-315nm), and short-wave ultraviolet (UVC, 200-290nm). As the wavelength of UV increases, its penetration power strengthens, causing more significant damage to the skin. Both UVA and UVB can harm the skin, with UVA penetrating the dermis, leading to “tanning” and “aging” of the skin. UVB, although only reaching the skin’s epidermis, can cause “sunburn” and “redness” and increase the risk of skin cancer.

What do SPF and PA on sunscreen products represent?

SPF and PA are important indicators of sunscreen product protection! SPF is the sun protection factor for UVB, representing the ability to delay skin “burning” and “redness.” The higher the number, the longer the protection time. For example, SPF30 means it can delay skin burning time by 30 times.
PA value indicates the UVA protection level, representing the ability to delay skin “tanning” and “aging” time. The more + signs, the longer the protection time. For example, PA+, one + sign represents an extension of tanning time by 2-4 times, and so on.

What is full-spectrum sunscreen (broad-spectrum sunscreen)?

Most commercially available sunscreens can effectively block short-wave UVB. As the wavelength increases, the effectiveness of sunscreen gradually decreases, reaching a specific wavelength where the sunscreen’s effectiveness sharply drops. This point is the critical wavelength. The larger the critical wavelength value, the wider the sunscreen’s coverage, and the better the protection against UVA1. U.S. regulations stipulate that reaching 370nm can be labeled as broad-spectrum protection. Therefore, when choosing sunscreen, it’s best to have a critical wavelength above 370nm.
