A sunscreen\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tga.gov.au\/consumers\/sunscreens-2012.htm#.U3oqJVhdV3w\">level of protection<\/a> is measured by determining how much time it takes for intense ultraviolet radiation to burn skin that\u2019s been liberally applied with sunscreen compared to unprotected skin. If it takes 150 seconds to burn with the sunscreen, and only 10 seconds without it, the SPF is 150\/10, or 15. When applied liberally and frequently, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.epa.gov\/sunwise\/doc\/sunscreen.pdf\">SPF 15 <\/a>protects the skin from 93 percent of UVB radiation while SPF 30 protects against 97 percent. While sunscreens as high as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ewg.org\/2013sunscreen\/fda-fails-consumers\/\">SPF 100<\/a> are available in the U.S. market, there are some potential downsides. People who use higher-SPF products may wait too long to reapply sunscreen and expose skin to the sun for longer. They may also have a false sense of security that their added protection lasts all day.Plus, because higher SPFs offer far <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ewg.org\/2013sunscreen\/whats-wrong-with-high-spf\/\">less protection<\/a> against UVA rays versus UVB, the risk for sunburn may be reduced, but other types of sun damage may not be.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.epa.gov\/sunwise\/doc\/sunscreen.pdf\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Skin Type:<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>The Food and Drug Administration classifies skin type on a scale of one to six.

Read these tips to get the most out of your sun protection.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Start fresh every year.<br \/>\n<\/strong>Since the active ingredients in sunscreen can deteriorate over time, the same bottle you\u2019ve been using for three years straight may not be as effective. Start with a fresh one every spring. If you\u2019re applying it frequently and liberally, you\u2019ll need a new one every year anyway.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Choose broad-spectrum.<br \/>\n<\/strong>Remember, you want to protect against both UVB and UVA radiation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Apply ahead of time.<br \/>\n<\/strong>Sunscreen should be lathered on to dry skin about 30 minutes before heading outdoors for periods of 20 minutes or more. Some people may want to use sunscreen for any amount of time in the sun.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t forget the little things.<\/strong><br \/>\nLegs, back, face: Check. It\u2019s easy to remember to lather up most areas of the body, but ears, tops of the feet, lips, and the back of the neck sometimes are forgotten.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Apply frequently and liberally.<br \/>\n<\/strong>Every two hours, reapply. As a rule of thumb, dermatologists suggest about an ounce of sunscreen (that\u2019s enough to fill a shot glass) for the average adult to cover the exposed areas of the body.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t rely just on that SPF.<br \/>\n<\/strong>Sunscreen isn\u2019t a cure-all, especially when the UV index is especially high. If you\u2019ll be exposed to the sun for an extended period of time\u2014for example, a day at the beach\u2014spend some time in the shade or bring along protective clothing, sunglasses, and a hat.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Remember waterproof isn\u2019t foolproof.<br \/>\n<\/strong>Labels promoting water resistant, sweat resistant, and waterproof can be <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3543289\/\">misleading.<\/a> These types of products may add extra skin protection while swimming and staying active outdoors, but they still need to be reapplied.<\/li>\n<li><strong>No sun?
