If you’re headed on vacation and can’t wait to lay out in the sun, swim a few laps and basically live outdoors for a few days, the staff at Seven Stars Grace Bay Beach Resort can help you with a few tips and advice on the different types of sunscreen out there as well as uncover some of the misconceptions around it. These days even the FDA is pushing towards getting rid of the ‘waterproof’ label, because no sunscreen is completely waterproof. People have to reapply the product throughout the day to get maximum protection. There’s also a myth that twice the SPF is twice the protection, for example that SPF 30 is twice as good as SPF 15. The truth is that it’s only a few percentages higher. You should always go higher than SPF 30 and if you’ve got light skin and eyes, go with SPF 50 or even more. The Skin Cancer Foundation advises us to go with sunscreens that have some mix of avobenzone, oxybenzone, mexoryl, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. There are many types out there from vitamin D-enriched formulas and for oily skin types to mineral-based and kid-friendly to anti-aging and more. You can also get sunscreen in spray form, cream, gel and even stick. However you like your SPF, make sure you protect yourself from the sun.
Seven Stars Grace Bay Beach Hotel invites you to come try out your favorite sunscreen formulas in Turk and Caicos. You’ll love the beach in Providenciales, the luxurious accommodations and delicious, gourmet food.
