It can be classified as: low protection (SPF of 6 to 10), medium (SPF 15 to 20), high (SPF 30) and very high (SPF 50 +). The SPF number indicates how long can a person be in the sun before beginning to burn.

Excessive Hair Oil
It doesn’t matter how often I wash my hair, it still seems lank and greasy. What can I do?
To begin, make sure that you are using a shampoo and conditioner that is formulated for oily hair. If you are already doing so, you might find that the combination of styling products, sunscreen and sweat, have resulted in your hair becoming limp and greasy. To combat product build up, minimize the amount of extra styling aids you use in your hair and always rinse thoroughly after shampooing. If your hair still seems oily, apply shampoo directly to dry hair, scrub gently and then rinse well. This way, the cleansing agents in the shampoo can attack the oil, rather than the water.
