The New Rules Of SPF

Not so long ago, in a time called the ’90s, we were told we had to start wearing something called SPF. We weren’t quite sure what it was, but we knew that it was chalky, it sometimes gave us spots, and that if we didn’t slap it on our faces/arms/ears (the list of body parts seemed to expand with time), then we would suffer the dual fates of sultana-skin or, far worse, skin cancer.

Since then, the sun-care market has forged ahead at Usain-Bolt speed, with new innovations, formulas and need-to-know essentials building every day. The problem: very few of us have caught up.
