UV SUPPORT SPF60 CREAM 30G

The mechanism of action of SPF 60 sunscreen cream involves a combination of organic and inorganic active ingredients to protect the skin from harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Organic compounds, such as avobenzone, oxybenzone, or octinoxate, work by absorbing UV rays, particularly in the UVB and short-wave UVA range. These molecules absorb the high-energy photons from the sun and convert them into harmless heat energy, preventing them from penetrating the skin. Inorganic ingredients like titanium dioxide and zinc oxide provide a physical barrier by reflecting and scattering UV rays away from the skin. SPF 60 indicates that the cream can filter and block a significant amount of UV radiation, allowing only 1/60th of the sun's rays to penetrate the skin, thus providing high-level protection against both UVB and UVA radiation-induced skin damage.

• Used for preventing premature aging caused by sun exposure, such as wrinkles and age spots.
• Used for individuals with fair or sensitive skin, offering higher protection.
• Used for outdoor activities with prolonged sun exposure, ensuring lasting protection.
• Used for areas with high sun intensity, providing extra defense against UV rays.
• Used for those with a history of skin cancer or at higher risk, offering peace of mind.

In the case of an overdose of SPF 60 cream, it is important to remain calm and take appropriate action. While the cream is not toxic, excessive application can lead to skin irritation and discomfort. If ingested, it may cause nausea and an upset stomach. If symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to contact a healthcare professional or a poison control center for guidance. They can provide specific instructions based on the individual's condition.

In the case of a missed dose of SPF 60 cream, it is important to apply the cream as soon as you remember. If it is close to the time of your next application, simply continue with your regular schedule. However, do not apply extra cream to make up for the missed dose. It is crucial to maintain a consistent application routine for the best protection against UV rays. If you find yourself frequently missing doses, consider setting reminders or keeping the cream in a visible location to ensure you don't forget.

To apply the SPF 60 Cream, clean and dry your skin, then apply a generous amount of the cream evenly to all exposed areas, gently massaging it into the skin until it is fully absorbed, ensuring complete coverage for effective sun protection.
