Can you still get a tan from using spf 60??
Answers:
yes.I agree with mielder76.i am a beauty therapist, and saying no to this question just goes to show the lack of knowledge about sun protection.If you use spf 60 it simply means you can stay in the sun 60 times longer before burning then you could without using an spf lotion.same as i f you use spf 15 you can stay in the sun 15 times longer without burning.if it takes you 10 mins to burn normally without an spf lotion on applying an spf 60 would mean you can stay sun bathing for 60 times longer before burning or having to reapply.Its also correct that if you dont protect yourself now that you'll be left with aged damaged skin in the future.
No. That is a total sun block. Nothing will get through that!
no
i put a spf 60 lotion on yesterday and i still got a tan
Yes you can get a tan. Just to inform you and all those who tan. SPF is not a tan stopper. It protects you from the harmful UVA/UVB rays that come from the sun. The number 60 , doesn't mean stronger it simply gives you a longer amount of time in the sun before "burning" and damage occurs. Also the amount of chemicals such as Zinc oxide, titanium dioxide,etc. that are contained within. If you don't want a tan cover up or don't go outside. Just for those who read this also, yes blacks,hispanics, and the darkest skin tones can tan and burn. So please use SPF on a daily basis. At least a 15spf to prevent aging and sun damage. All you young beautiful teenagers and twenty somethings, tanning in any form(besides spray and bottles) is terrible for you. Yes, it looks great and everyone does it,but in 10-15 years you'll be spending 1,000s of dollars for laser peels and face lifts. Don't do it. people always comment on ethnic skin and it's ageless qualities such as african american skin. Skin is skin ,but the next time you're at the beach or tanning bed look around and count the # of blacks or hispanics you see, then go to the mall and count the # at the anti-aging counters. So be smart and cover up, use spray or bottle tans, liquid bronzers,or pay for it later. G' luck
yeah you can it just stop you from developing skin cancer in the future coz and i quote "blocks the harmful UV rays"
SPF stands for "Sun Protection Factor", by that, SPF 60 means that if you usually burn after 10 minutes standing under the sun without any sun protection, multiply 60, it will now take 600 minutes before your skin gets burned.
That's a very lloooooong time. 10 hours of direct sunlight! But I guess where you live, the sun dont shine that long. lol
But when you apply the lotion, be generous. Make sure all areas are covered well.
Depending on where you are, some UVRs can be quite nasty. Most nasty around 12noon - 3pm. Especially when there's snow around you, the reflection's quite dangerous. Just because, you're feeling cold from the snow, does not mean you dont need protection agst UVR.
Yeah, but most people would have to be in the sun a very long time.
yes,it don't stop it completely you still need to reapply regularly to,or there is no point
not a chance doll!
no you cant
No. that is a block. Make sure that your covered.

Yes, but it will take a long time and a lot of sun.
It depends on your skin type and its capability to stop the rays penetrating dep. A sunblock stops the over production of melanin and protects your skin from the harmful UVA and UVB rays. It also depends where you live, i mean the whether conditions.
yes the sun comes thru
yes you can.its just that you tan slower and you dont burn, provided you reaply it every 2/3 hours.
you cant it is to strong
I don't think so. SPF 45 is a good bet. It still protects, and still allows some color to come on.
The lower the spf the less protection u get. Don't use sunblock 2 get a tan
no if applied often durin d day it will block uva and uvb so no chance of a tan dare sorry xx
Listen to meildor - thats a good answer
no not really but it depends where u live if you was somewhere very hot then maybe but i live in britain so u wouldnt get a tan from using it maybe in the Med or africa you would
maybe you can only get a good tan when your skins moisturised
never
