Sun protection

Water-resistant suncreams

When we buy a suncream, one of the things to bear in mind, apart from its protection factor, is its resistance to water and perspiration. There are two different types of suncreams:

- Water-resistant: this type of cream or lotion will remain active for up to 40 minutes once it has come into contact with water.
- Waterproof: this type is more resistant and can remain active for more than 80 minutes once it has come into contact with water.
