Sun care products refer to the cosmetic or pharmaceutical products that are formulated to shield the skin from the harmful impact of the ultraviolet (UV) radiation. These products comprise active ingredients that contain organic and inorganic filters, antioxidants, and other elements that aid in soothing and nourishing the skin. They function by either absorbing or reflecting the UV radiation, or a combination of both. The sun protection factor (SPF) value measures the effectiveness of a sun care product against UVB radiation, with those products rated broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher, assisting in the reduction of skin cancer and other sun damage, when applied correctly. A wide range of sun care products is available for all skin types, such as sunscreen, sprays, gels, sticks, and after-sun products including moisturizers and cooling gels. To reduce the risk of sunburn, skin irritation, and other sun damage, sun care products should be applied generously and regularly to exposed skin areas, which also improves the overall appearance and texture of the skin.
