In a country like India, where the Ultra Violet index keeps high even on least sunny days, sun protection becomes a necessity rather than fancy. Applying a topical sunscreen lotion to your exposed skin is one of the many and perhaps the most convenient way to build a shield against harmful rays of the sun. In the spectrum of sun rays, there is Ultra Violet A (a.k.a. UVA) and Ultra Violet B (or UVB) rays. UVA ray infiltrates deep into the skin and can cause fatal ailments like melanoma in the long run.
On the other hand, the UVB ray causes instant skin problems like redness, skin burning and tanning. The sunscreens, which are blends of different chemicals either reflect or absorb these rays so that the skin remain unaffected. The SPF or Sun Protection Factor is the measure of UVB protection and the ‘+’ ratings measure the UVB protection for a commercial sunscreen.
