Frequently asked questions
Why should I apply sunscreen everyday?
Daily use of sunscreen protects your skin from harmful UV rays, which can cause long-term damage like premature ageing, dark spots, and increase the risk of skin cancer.
What is the difference between sunscreen for face and sunscreen for body?
Facial sunscreens are typically lighter and formulated to address specific facial skin concerns, while sunscreens for the body tend to have a thicker consistency and offer broader coverage. Additionally, body sunscreens are usually water and sweat resistant, while face sunscreens often prioritise a non-greasy finish and make-up compatibility, typically offering less water and sweat resistance. However, the innovative water-resistant formula of NIVEASUNProtect & Moisture SPF50+ absorbs in seconds and doesn’t leave a white cast, delivering powerful UV protection without compromising on comfort.
What is the difference between sunscreen lotion and sunscreen cream?
Sunscreen lotion has a lighter consistency and absorbs quickly. Meanwhile, sunscreen cream tends to have a thicker consistency. The formulas from NIVEASUN are always light and quickly absorbing, so you can get back to enjoying your time in and out of the sun.
Are There Different Types Of Sunscreens?
Yes, there are various forms including mineral sunscreen, sunscreen sticks, sunscreen lotions, and sun creams that cater to different preferences and skin needs.
You can often find a difference in sunscreens by their composition, intention and format.
Composition:
Mineral sunscreens – Contain physical UV blockers that sit on the skin's surface and reflect UV rays immediately and are less likely to irritate sensitiveskin.
Chemical sunscreens – Contain organic compounds that absorb UV rays and convert them into heat, have a lighter texture, and may cause irritation for sensitiveskin types.
Intention:
For face – To protect the delicate facial skin, these sunscreens are formulated to be lightweight, non-comedogenic (don’t clog pores), and are suitable for sensitiveskin. They also often include skincare benefits like hydration, anti-ageing ingredients, or a matte finish.
For body – As for the body, sunscreens are usually typically thicker, they may lack specialised skincare ingredients and can feel heavier or greasier on facial skin.
Format:
Lotions – These tend to be lightweight, easily spreadable, and suitable for large areas of the body and are also ideal for daily use and normal to oily skin types.
Creams – Creams refer to thicker and more hydrating formulas, making them ideal for dry or sensitiveskin and a great choice for use in colder weather.
Sprays – This format is more convenient and offers a quick way to apply sunscreen coverage, especially for hard-to-reach areas.
Sticks – They will be in a solid consistency and are perfect for targeted areas like the face or hands. As they offer a mess-free and portable solution, they are great for reapplication on the go.
How often should I reapply sunscreen?
Reapply every two hours, especially after swimming, sweating, or towel drying, to ensure continued protection.
What sunscreen doesn't leave a white cast?
The new NIVEASUNProtect & Moisture SPF50+ is light, fast-absorbing, and leaves no white residue while providing 48h moisture, making it perfect for daily wear.
What is the shelf life of sunscreen?
Sunscreen typically lasts around two years, but always check the packaging for specific expiry information. Make sure it’s stored properly to maintain effectiveness.
Geniessen Sie die Sonne mit NIVEASun!
Wenn es um die Sonne geht, denken die meisten von uns gleich an Wärme, Meer, Spass und Sommer. Die Sonne hat aber auch viele wichtige Aufgaben: Sie erhält alles Leben auf der Erde, lässt Nahrung wachsen und regt unseren Körper zur Produktion von Vitamin D an. Die Energie der Sonne erreicht uns in Form von Strahlung, die sowohl positive als auch negative Auswirkungen auf unsere Haut hat. Das Sonnenlicht reguliert unser Schlafverhalten, fördert das Wohlbefinden, regt den Stoffwechsel sowie den Kreislauf an und verbessert grundsätzlich unseren Gesundheitszustand. Die Sonne kann unserem Körper aber auch schaden. Wer kurzfristig zu viel UV-Strahlung abbekommt, kann einen Sonnenbrand erleiden. Die Haut schmerzt, juckt, fühlt sich heiss an, spannt und kann sich nach einiger Zeit schälen. Bei schweren Fällen von Sonnenbrand bilden sich sogar Blasen. Langfristig kann übermässige UV-Strahlung auch ernsthafte Krankheiten, wie Hautkrebs, begünstigen. Deshalb sollten Sie sich vor der Sonne schützen. Das klappt, wenn Sie im Schatten bleiben, lange Kleidung tragen oder sich mit ausreichend Sonnenschutz eincremen.
Welchen Sonnenschutzfaktor brauche ich?
Die Auswahl an Produkten zum Schutz gegen die Sonne ist oft unüberschaubar. Das hat auch einen Grund: Jede Haut ist anders und benötigt daher auch einen anderen Sonnenschutz. Welcher Lichtschutzfaktor der richtige für Sie ist, hängt von der Eigenschutzzeit der Haut ab. Das ist die Zeit, die die Haut der Sonne ausgesetzt sein kann, ohne einen Sonnenbrand zu erleiden. Je nach Hauttyp und Jahreszeit sind das etwa 5 bis 30 Minuten. Bei Kindern sollten Sie mindestens Lichtschutzfaktor 30 (LSF 30), besser 50+, verwenden – wie er z. B. im pflegenden Sonnenspray von NIVEA mit LSF 50+ enthalten ist.
Sie suchen ein ganz spezielles Produkt? Dann nutzen Sie die Filterfunktion, um in unserem reichhaltigen Angebot genau das Produkt zu finden, nach dem Sie gesucht haben. Aber wer weiss, vielleicht finden Sie auch etwas Neues.
Sonnenbrand, was jetzt?
Wenn Sie doch einmal zu viel Sonne erwischt haben, sollten Sie sofort in den Schatten gehen, Ihren Körper kühlen und viel trinken, denn der Körper verliert durch die Verbrennung eine Menge Flüssigkeit. Bei leichten Rötungen der Haut kühlen Sie diese am besten mit einem After Sun Produkt von NIVEA. Die feuchtigkeitsspendenden Produkte enthalten natürliche Wirkstoffe wie Aloe Vera, beruhigen die Haut und helfen bei der Regeneration.
