Therefore, effective sunscreen clothing will be the second layer of skin to strengthen skin protection.

These materials do not absorb sweat, causing the body to squash, cause allergies, dermatitis, bring feelings of frustration and reduce the effectiveness of sun protection. UV rays in intense sunlight cause many harmful effects to the skin.

Anti-UV, no need for specialized products According to Assoc.Prof. Dr. Nguyen Manh Tuan – Deputy Director of the Institute of Applied Materials Science, there are many forms of radiation around us, high-energy radiation is electromagnetic, low-energy radiation is infrared. UV rays are classified as high energy radiation, capable of penetrating deep through clothing and causing damage to the skin. There are three types of UV rays: UVC (short wave light), UVB (strong impact on the skin’s surface, causing redness, sunburn and skin cancer risk), UVA (with the longest wavelength, penetrating depth). under the skin, causing skin aging and wrinkling). UPF index is an index evaluating the level of protection of a fabric material from UVA, UVB rays. The higher the UPF index, the lower the amount of UV light penetrating the fabric. An effective sunscreen should be made from fabric with a UPF rating of 15 to 50+, which is about UPF for the best skin protection. Normally, synthetic fibers such as polyester or nylon will be more resistant to UV rays than cotton. Depending on the fabric material that can block UV rays, at different levels. If the fabric is resistant to UVA and UVB rays, the manufacturer must add anti-UV chemicals (this chemical is also known as UV). But whether the chemical is good or not, the ability to resist UV rays, the index of any number must be tested and certified by the Vietnam Textile Institute. “Cheap products on the street, because there are no measuring tools to check, so I do not know for sure what materials they use, whether they are dyed with anti-UV chemicals or not, how much UV protection is. If they use materials that are not good enough, do not dye UV chemicals but increase the product thickness, they can also block UV rays, just the level of resistance can not be maximized as advertised “, Assoc.Prof.Dr. Nguyen Manh Tuan said. Dr. Huynh Khanh Duy – Chemical Engineering Department, Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology said that no matter what material a product is made of, as long as UV rays cannot be penetrated, it is able to protect against the sun. Therefore, whether it is synthetic fiber fabric, cotton fabric, denim fabric, khaki … just thick enough is enough to effectively protect against the sun but the price is quite cheap. But in return, these products can not bring the desired coolness in the hot sun. “With products dyed with anti-UV chemicals, depending on the type of chemical used well or not, the dye will pass through the washing times. Many products on the market today do not announce how much UV protection, so UV resistance is also in the form of … bad luck. If you don’t have money to buy an expensive UV protection product, just take any shirt, put it in the sun, if the sunlight cannot penetrate the fabric hole, the product is highly UV resistant and vice versa. again “, Dr. Huynh Khanh Duy confirmed. According to MSc.Vu Thi Phuong Thao – Deputy Head of General Planning Department, Ho Chi Minh City Dermatology Hospital – some sunscreens can protect against UV rays but with a certain ability and still cannot replace cream Sunscreen. Although using coats, masks, gloves, glasses … consumers still have to coordinate with sunscreen to fully protect the skin when going out in the sun. The SPF number on a sunscreen product demonstrates the ability to protect the skin against UVB rays, the sunscreen used must be a broad spectrum, water-resistant and have an SPF of 30 or higher. If you must be active outdoors and sweat a lot, repeat the cream every 2 hours. (According to Women HCMC)

1. Skin:

Whether it’s spring, summer, autumn, winter, rain or shine, you can’t go out on the street without sunscreen. “Actually, if people work in the office and sit on the computer a lot, they should also use sunscreen. Because the light in electronic devices also contains UV rays that are harmful to the skin”, female YouTuber said.
