Sun protection
Sun protection is your daily must-have, even when cycling to work or sitting on a terrace. With the right SPF, you shield your skin from UV rays, sunburn, and premature ageing. From lightweight face sunscreens to Sprays for your body, here you’ll find your favourite sun protection.
Why is sun protection so important?
Sun protection helps guard your skin against UVA and UVB rays. UVB causes sunburn. UVA penetrates deeper and plays a big part in ageing, dark spots, and loss of firmness. Good sun protection isn’t just for holidays, but for every day.
Even on cloudy days, your skin is exposed to sunlight. Your face, neck, hands and scalp often go unprotected. Are you using Retinol, vitamin C or exfoliating acids? Then UV protection is extra important because your skin can become more sensitive to sunlight.
A pleasant SPF makes it much easier to apply consistently. Choose a texture that suits your skin. Dry skin loves a cream. Oily skin usually prefers a gel-cream or fluid. Do you exercise outdoors or swim? Then a water-resistant formula is more practical.
Focus especially on these points:
-
Choose SPF 30 or SPF 50 for daily protection
-
Apply enough product
-
Reapply after swimming, exercising or sweating
-
Don’t forget ears, neck, hairline and hands
-
Combine sun protection with shade, clothing and sunglasses
What types of sun protection are there?
There are different types of sun protection, which is great. That way you can pick what suits your skin, activities and preferences. A cream often feels nourishing and works well for dry or sensitive skin. A Spray is quick and easy for your body. A fluid or gel-cream is ideal if you want a light finish.
For the face, products like La Roche-Posay Fluide UVmune SPF50+, La Roche-Posay UVmune 400 Oil Control Gel-Cream and Beauty of joseon Sun Relief Aqua Fresh Rice are popular. These formulas feel lighter than many classic sunscreens and fit well in a skincare routine.
Here’s how to choose your sun protection faster:
-
Sensitive skin: go for a mild, high SPF like a La Roche-Posay Anthelios formula
-
Oily skin: choose an oil control gel-cream or light fluid
-
Dry skin: take a nourishing cream with SPF50
-
Sport or beach: use a Spray or sport formula, like gleam Sun Sport SPF50+
-
Children: pick a high SPF and an easy-to-apply formula, like gleam Kids Spray SPF50+
After a sunny day, care is also important. An afterSun helps your skin feel comfortable again and fits nicely alongside your SPF routine.
For hair, face and body
Sun protection isn’t just for your face. Your body, lips, hands, scalp and hair also face sun exposure. Coloured, dry or damaged hair can become dull faster from UV rays, salt water and chlorine. That’s why UV protection for your hair is smart on sunny days.
For your face, you usually want something non-sticky, no white cast and comfortable under make-up. A face mist, like La Roche-Posay Face Mist SPF50+, is handy to refresh during the day. A tinted SPF, like Revuele Sunprotect Tinted Face Cream Light SPF50, suits well if you want a light, even finish.
For your body, sun protection can often be more practical. A Spray works quickly on arms, legs and back. A Lotion or cream is nice if you want something richer. Going out with the whole family? Then La Roche-Posay Anthelios Family Spray SPF50+ is a handy choice. For beach, sport or festivals, gleam Sun Spray SPF50 is easy to carry.
You protect your hair differently than your skin. Use a protective Spray, oil or leave-in for lengths and ends. In strong sun, also wear a cap, scarf or hat. That instantly protects your scalp, which is a spot often forgotten when applying sun protection.
Buying sun protection at haarspullen.nl
Buying sun protection is easier when you know where, when and why to use it. Looking for daily face protection? Lightweight SPF products from La Roche-Posay, Beauty of joseon or Revuele are great options. If you mainly want to quickly apply your body, check out Sprays by gleam or a family Spray for multiple skin types.
At haarspullen.nl you’ll find products for different routines: face, body, children, sport, sensitive skin, dry skin and oily skin. You can filter by brand, skin type, features like Vegan or waterproof, and product type. This helps you quickly find the sun protection you really use.
Unsure between SPF 30 and SPF 50? Choose SPF 50 if you burn easily, have light or sensitive skin, spend a lot of time outside or go on holiday. SPF 30 can be fine for daily use as long as you apply enough and reapply. The best sun protection? It’s the formula you reach for easily and enjoy using.
Make SPF a firm step in your daily routine: apply before going outside and reapply when staying longer in the sun. This gives your skin the care it deserves. Have you found your favourite yet?
