How to use sunscreen effectively in summer

The scorching sun makes people's skin dry and cracked. Summer has become a season for everyone to protect themselves from the sun, and it is not surprising that everyone has a sunscreen. There are also skills to apply sunscreen, otherwise no matter how much you apply, no matter how expensive the sunscreen is, it will be useless.

How to apply sunscreen

1. Dosage problem

Most sunscreens come in small bottles and many people are afraid of wasting them. Some people are afraid of damaging the skin and think that just applying a little is enough. This is wrong. Normally, about 1.5 ml of sunscreen needs to be applied to have a sunscreen effect, ensuring that 0.03 ml of the product covers every square centimeter of skin. Only in this way can it play a normal sunscreen function.

2. Wipe off the oily areas on your face after applying sunscreen

After applying sunscreen, your skin will be very white and shiny. Some people may use glossy paper to absorb it, but this is wrong and will affect the effect. If you are afraid that it is too oily, you can use oil-absorbing lotion before using sunscreen. In summer, it is best to use a refreshing sunscreen, which can avoid many problems.

3. Apply sunscreen around the eyes

The area around the eyes is very delicate and weak. Any amount of sunscreen will put a burden on the skin. It is not recommended to apply sunscreen around the eyes. You can wear sunglasses to achieve a sunscreen effect.

4. Go out right after applying sunscreen

After sunscreen is applied to the skin, it needs to penetrate into the surface of the skin to play a sunscreen role, so it is recommended to apply sunscreen half an hour before going out, and refill it again before going out. This can achieve the best sunscreen effect, otherwise you will get tanned.
