Thanks to their sunscreen expertise, our teams work to educate about and prevent damage caused by the sun. They inform and advise customers about proper sunscreen application, preventative measures, care and monitoring.
Note that 80% of the sun’s rays can penetrate dark and heavy clouds as well as fog. Some medications make the skin more fragile. It is our duty to advise you on proper sunscreen protection. Overexposure to the sun may also cause photo-aging, and thus the appearance of premature wrinkling.
Whether you use SPF 30 or SPF 60 sunscreen, it is important to reapply it every two hours and after swimming[source]. Diligent use of sunscreen over the first 18 years of life reduces the risk of developing non-melanoma skin cancer by 78%[source].
" UVB rays, whether natural or artificial (like in a tanning salon), cause 90% of skin cancers. In North America, the frequency of basal cell carcinoma, the most common type of skin cancer, increases by at least 5% every year. About 78,000 new cases of non-melanoma skin are diagnosed annually in Canada. This is why it is necessary to protect our skin every day."[Source].
