How to choose and identify a sweat-resistant sunscreen?
First of all, as a simple way to tell the difference, check the sunscreen’s packaging to see if it is labeled “water proof,” “UV resistant,” “sweat-proof,” etc. The standard for “water proof” will be unified by the Japan Cosmetic Industry Association in December 2022, and it is recommended that the effectiveness of water proof sunscreens be measured and indicated with the specified labeling. 2″ will be required after that date. This indicator has a rating standard of ” UV water resistance ★ ” or ” UV water resistance ★★ “, and when looking for a sunscreen that is more resistant to perspiration, choose one with a higher number of stars.
1 The UV water resistance labeling will become operational on December 1, 2022, but there is a two-year grace period before the UV water resistance labeling will be applied to products. However, there is a two-year grace period before the labeling of products as UV water-resistant will be available. However, products shipped after that date will be required to indicate UV water resistance.
2 “UV resistance” is a guideline for selecting UV-protective cosmetics for use in wet situations. It is a standard for selecting UV-protective cosmetics for use in wet conditions. The level of SPF (sun protection factor) is measured under conditions where the product is not exposed to water, and then examined to see how well the SPF is maintained after contact with water. The level is indicated by the number of ★ or ☆, and there are two levels: “UV water resistance ★ (or ☆)” and “UV water resistance ★ (or ☆☆).
What makes a sweat-resistant sunscreen different from ordinary ones?
For daily use, a sunscreen with low UV resistance is fine, but in long outdoor activities or sports where you sweat easily, or in places where you come in contact with water such as the ocean or swimming pools, sweat and water will cause the sunscreen you have applied to fall off. Sunscreens are often reapplied more frequently than UV-resistant sunscreens. Sunscreens often contain two types of ingredients: ” UV absorbers ” and ” UV scatterers. The former absorbs ultraviolet rays, converts them into light, heat, and other forms of energy, and then releases them. The latter protect UV rays from the skin by reflecting them back onto the skin. Many sweat-resistant sunscreens contain the former type of UV absorbing agents, which cause a chemical reaction on the skin to cut UV rays, so people with sensitive skin should be careful when using them.
In what situations is sweat-resistant sunscreen necessary?
Outdoor sports such as running, cycling, soccer, tennis, etc.
・Water contact scenes such as beaches and swimming pools, swimming, surfing, and other marine sports
・Hiking and camping where you spend a lot of time outside
・Outdoor events such as outdoor festivals, picnics, barbecues
Gardening, construction work, etc.
・Walking around when traveling or sightseeing (especially in hot places)
・Watching sports outdoors
It is important to reapply frequently, since applying a large amount of sunscreen at one time and having a high SPF and PA value does not mean that the sunscreen will continue to be effective.
Are sweat-resistant sunscreens difficult to remove with soap alone? How to remove it if it does not come off with just a face wash
[ Points to keep in mind when removing the sunscreen ].
(1) Pay attention to areas that are often overlooked.
Be especially aware of the area around the nose and face line, as they are easily overlooked.
(2) Scrubbing is not a good way to wash.
Scrubbing with strong force and friction is x. The trick is to wash gently and carefully so as not to irritate the skin surface. Many men have the habit of scrubbing their bodies in particular, so if you use body towels or sponges that are too forceful, wash gently with your hands.
(3) Moisturize immediately after cleansing.
Sunscreens, even hypoallergenic ones, can dry out the skin. After cleansing, be sure to moisturize both face and body. For the face, lotions and milky lotions with high moisturizing properties are recommended. For the body, it is a must to use body lotion or cream and moisturize well.
(4) A cleansing oil type is recommended.
