PLEASE NOTE:
SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. No sunscreen or barrier cream can block 100% of the suns rays. SPF 30 rating can be translated to sun protective factor of 97% of UVB rays for a period of time calculated. For instance if you start to redden in the sun after 10 minutes and the sun protection cream allows you to stay out in the sun 500 minutes longer before you 'redden' then the cream will be given a rating 10/500 = 50 aka SPF50
Factors that affect the Sun Barrier Creams efficiency, the UVA/UVB rating on the day, water and snow can increase reflection of rays thus increasing your chances of 'burning', being in water or sweating can affect its ability to stay on the skins surface thus affecting its ability to provide a barrier. Being closer to the equator can increase the sun rays, thus increasing your ability to burn. (Although, Sons of the Land Co doesn't have an SPF rating YET we can assure you we are working on it and the laboratory will still test it the same way we have, which is to use Human Subjects and test the 'reddening' of the human skin after a period of time)
HOW TO PREVENT SUN BURN-
Use common sense
If it is the middle of the day or the UVB rays are high or you are swimming or sweating- cover up and seek shade where possible OR reapply frequently (more than every two hours and use a THICKER LAYER (Yes, we know this means you will see more of the white non-nano Zinc, however it is a small compromise for reducing your chances of burning)
For any other time of the day or use, apply every two hours and a thin layer will suffice.
For example: I am a PE Teacher, on the days I am out doors for long periods at a time, especially during summer months I apply at least twice daily, a thin layer. When I take my family 'Boating' and we are in and out of the water and in the sun all day, we apply a THICK layer so that we can see the Zinc at all times and the second we can't see it we reapply, which may mean we apply up to 4+ times a day. If the kids are playing on the bank of the river, in sand and mud, we ensure they have a THICK layer on whilst ever they are in the sun.
