Indeed, experts advise renewing sunscreens every one and a half to two hours, but not at all because the filters stop working. “The point is mechanical impact - as a rule, during this time you manage to sunbathe lying both on your back and on your stomach, put on and take off a pareo, order lemonade, leaning your elbows on the bar … Due to friction, the protective coating is broken,” explains Ilona Nikiforova, Director of Education for Shiseido and Clé De Peau Beauté. A similar story with waterproof products: they will only work after bathing if you don't towel dry. Otherwise, the product must be applied again.

Do you update your sunscreen even more often, but still manage to get burned? Unfortunately, observing the above rules and staying in the sun strictly by the hour will not help if you belong to the first phototype. “The skin of some people simply does not have the ability to sunbathe - all attempts end with a burn,” explains Natalya Abramova, an expert at Sisley. "Such people produce very light melanin, which is enough for freckles, but not enough to protect the skin." In short, if your freckled, milky-white skin turns to the color of borscht after the very first sunbathing, finally give up this venture and buy yourself a self-tanner.>
