LANÈCHE SUN PRODUCTS

Sun products contain filters that protect the skin against UV radiation. The extent to which these filters offer protection is indicated by the SPF factor. This SPF factor gives the length of time you are protected. If you are able to remain in the sun for 10 minutes without protection with no ill-effects, after applying factor 6 you can remain in the sun for one hour and with factor 15 about 2.5 hours. Very high SPF factors such as SPF 50 or 30 do enable you to stay in the sun longer, but due to sweating, for example, it is necessary to reapply about every 2 to 3 hours. Higher SPF factors are extremely suitable for people with a sensitive skin or children who have had little exposure to the sun.
