By now, most of you have read about the House Of Obagi (HOO) that I have attended two months ago. What I didn't tell you is that I was given a box of Obagi-C RX System C- Sunguard with SPF 30... woot!
I was quite happy with my Pevonia Botanica Ligne Soleil sunblock so I was not able to try this product sooner. Fact is that I tend to stick with one brand if the product suits me well. Case in point, the bottle I had was already half empty when I gave it away to my mom. Yes, I have to part with a product to give way to other brands so I can share my experience with you, my dear readers ; )
OBAGI C-Sunguard SPF 30 3 fl. oz (90ml) PhP3740
What is Sun Protection Factor (SPF)?
SPF numbers signify the duration of protection against UVB rays versus not using a sunscreen. E.g. no sunscreen= sunburn onset 10 minutes; SPF 30= sunburn onset 300 minutes.
UVA:
- Penetrates skin more deeply than UVB
- Plays a major role in accelerating photoaging: wrinkles, skin roughening, blotchy skin color, brow spots, poor skin tone, sallowness
- Can contribute to development of skin cancer
UVB:
- Penetrates skin less deeply than UVA
- Is a primary cause of sunburn
- Plays a key role in the development of skin cancer
- Contributes to photoaging
