SolaScren is indicated for:
Pharmacology
This lotion is a non-greasy, water resistant sun block that helps prevent sunburn on all types of skin. It gives a high degree of protection against the harmful ultraviolet parts of sunlight, which are responsible for skin cancer, wrinkling, premature ageing and darkening of the skin from overexposure.
The lotion provides a sun protection factor (SPF) of 6 against UVA rays and 28 against UVB rays. SPF tells you how much longer you can stay in the sun without being affected by these rays, compared with unprotected skin. So you get 28 times more natural sunburn protection, and the lotion keeps its level of protection for up to 60 minutes in water.
