How well do you know your sunscreen?

Did you know that SPF stands for “Sun Protection Factor” and is a multiplier which tells you how much longer you can remain in the sun without burning when wearing a sunscreen?

Many Australians apply too little sunscreen, resulting in achieving an SPF of between 50-80% less than that specified on the product. Factors such as how much sunscreen you apply, the weather, and skin types will affect your level of protection.
