How Option+ Sunscreen Protects Your Skin
Broad-Spectrum UVA/UVB Protection
Option+ Sunscreen Continuous Spray, SPF 30 provides broad-spectrum protection, effectively shielding your skin from both UVA and UVB rays. UVA rays contribute to premature aging and can penetrate deeply into the skin, while UVB rays are the primary cause of sunburn. This sunscreen is formulated to provide comprehensive protection against both, helping to reduce the risk of skin cancer and minimize the signs of aging. Regular use, as part of a complete sun protection strategy, is crucial for maintaining healthy skin.
- Protects against both UVA and UVB rays.
- Helps prevent sunburn and long-term skin damage.
Water-Resistant Formula
The water-resistant formula of Option+ Sunscreen allows you to enjoy outdoor activities without frequent reapplication. This formula maintains its protective efficacy for up to 80 minutes in water or while sweating. While water resistance offers convenience, it's crucial to reapply the sunscreen after swimming, sweating, or towel-drying to ensure continued protection. The continuous spray application ensures even coverage, making it easy to reapply effectively.
Key Features and Benefits of Option+ Continuous Spray
Non-Greasy and Easy Application
Option+ Sunscreen is designed with a non-greasy formula that allows for comfortable daily use. Its light texture ensures it won't clog pores or leave a heavy feeling on your skin, making it suitable for all skin types. The continuous spray design allows for a quick, even, and convenient application, covering a large area rapidly. This makes it easy to apply, even on hard-to-reach areas, ensuring maximum coverage and protection. The continuous spray is an excellent alternative to traditional lotion or pump sprays, offering a more convenient and efficient application method.
Oxybenzone-Free Formulation
Option+ Sunscreen is formulated without oxybenzone. This offers an environmentally conscious choice and helps to reduce the risk of potential skin sensitivities. This feature is particularly beneficial for those with sensitive skin or those who are concerned about the environmental impact of their skincare products. The absence of oxybenzone contributes to a safer and more sustainable sunscreen option, aligning with broader environmental concerns and recommendations.
How to Use Option+ Sunscreen Spray
Application Guidelines
To ensure optimal protection, apply Option+ Sunscreen liberally 15 minutes before sun exposure. Hold the spray nozzle approximately 4-6 inches from your skin and spray evenly, covering all exposed areas. For adults, a shot-glass amount is typically recommended for the entire body. Consistent and proper application is key to maintaining protection. Reapply:
- At least every two hours, or more frequently if sweating.
- Immediately after swimming or water activities.
- After towel drying.
Important Considerations
No sunscreen provides 100% protection from the sun's harmful rays. Therefore, in addition to applying sunscreen, seek shade, especially during peak sun hours (typically between 10 AM and 4 PM), and wear protective clothing, hats, and sunglasses to enhance sun safety. Following these combined sun protection strategies will greatly reduce your risk of sun damage. According to Health Canada, sun protection is vital for everyone.
