Abdullah – Does the Lexli SPF 15 sunscreen provide sufficient protection?
A common misconception is that the higher the SPF value in a sunscreen, the better the protection. This is not true. The difference between SPF 15 and SPF 100 is only 4% added protection. The FDA considers all sunscreens with SPF 15 and higher in the same category. Practicing safe sun exposure requires more than just applying sunscreen — it requires common sense. As good as some sunscreens are, they are not the total answer. Activities such as fishing or going to the beach for the day are not a problem as long as you have total quality protection. This means investing in hats, visors, sunglasses and protective clothing as well as an SPF 15 sunscreen.
