<h1>Just Who Needs Zinc Oxide Sunscreens?</h1><strong> Author: <a href='http://www.articleseen.com/profile_Dave Morrill.aspx'>Dave Morrill</a></strong><br /><p>There are so many different sunscreen products for children and for swimmers. Many products offer botanical extracts and or certain kinds of skin moisturizers. There are sun protection products with SPFs (sun protection factors) everywhere from 2 up to 100. And there are products that contain Zinc Oxide. There are so many different products with different ingredients it can be difficult to decide which product you really need. So who needs Zinc Oxide Sunscreen? The short answer is: You do! Zinc Oxide Sunscreens work by reflecting the sun’s rays rather than absorbing and breaking them down. Think of millions of tiny mirrors turning those harmful UV rays away from the skin! This sort of sunscreen offers broad spectrum protection, which is critical to, well, everyone. Here are some examples of those who benefit from more comprehensive protection like the kind offered by Zinc Oxide Sunscreens. People working outside – It may seem obvious, but people whose livelihoods are made outside are especially at risk. For one thing, perspiration degrades sunscreen in the same way that swimming might. Outdoor workers tend to experience more prolonged exposure to the sun during peak sunlight hours. People under the age of 18 years old – About a quarter of the damaging sun exposure we receive in our lifetime occurs before the age of 18. Children are also more exposed to sunlight because of play during the summer months, water exposure and a host of other reasons. People working around windows –or driving. Who thinks of wearing sunscreen while indoors? The reality is that while glass may block most UVB rays, it does not block UVA rays, unless the glass has been properly treated (and most glass is not). Broad spectrum sunscreens allow you to have the proper sunscreen while driving, for example, and can be the difference between damage and prevention! People who want immediate access to the sun – or have no choice but to be exposed to the sun for long periods of time. Typical chemical sunscreens require the user to wait at least 15 – 30 minutes before going into the sun. This is to allow the formula time to penetrate the skin, where it sits as a film and absorbs the sun’s rays, trying to break them down. Sunscreen, like those containing zinc oxide, reflects the sun’s rays immediately. People in risk enhanced environments – We know that the sun’s rays are more damaging when you’re around water. But did you know that being around sand raises the sun’s effect by as much as 17%? Those ski slopes are even worse at a whopping 80% magnification effect! These examples indicate why zinc oxide is best all-around in your quest for preventive sun care.
