I have a pair of De Soto sleeves that say 99% protection (SPF 50) but it is for UVA only , not UVB. Are the Pearls UVA & UVB?

I wear the pearl izumi everyday. I live in Florida and have a history of sun problems and go to a dermatologist 4times a year. There is no problem with my arms so I think it The Pearl sleeves are the best !

The label reads "Broad Spectrum" sunscreen, which I believe covers both UVA & UVB rays. I used this on my 2 children for a week at the beach this summer & neither got burnt, and my 1-year old got no sun tan at all while using it, so I am sure it covers both types of rays. I found this sunscreen on the Environmental Work Group's "A" list of sunscreens for 2012. It worked very well for us. Hope this helps!

I use the EltaMD UV Daily SPF 40 product. It is a daily facial moisturizer with sun protection. UV Clear SPF 46 is not a moisturizer but a sun protection lotion that also helps if the wearer is prone to hyperpigmentation.

Yes, but with a caveat: SPF 35 is sufficient, as long as you apply enough and reapply every couple hours or after getting wet. SPF higher than 30 doesn't provide significantly more benefit, since SPF 30 blocks 97% of UVB rays and SPF 100 (which I don't think they're legally even allowed to claim anymore) only blocks 99%. That's a lot more active ingredient for really marginal benefit. So just find a sunblock your skin doesn't hate, and use a TON of it, and you'll be good.

I don't know exact numbers on the UV protection but they definitely keep the sun out so I'm sure the UV protection is pretty strong.

I use Elta sunscreen. I believe it is SPF 47 but would need to double check. I only use this brand on myself and kids. It's the best, in my opinion. I hope this helps.

I don't think so. I had the same question. I bought Radiance, which has spf sunscreen. check it out. Burt's Bees Radiance Day Lotion SPF 7, 2.0 Oz, 55 g

I don't remember this product. I did note someone mentioned the product leaving their face somewhat white. If you are out in intense sun, you need a block that is more protective like this one. My favorite right now for everyday use is Eltamd UV Clear SPF 46.

I just received my order. Right on the side of the box for Model DPG28 it has a label that says: "99.9% UVA-UVB Protection." Can we please just retain what we "think" and only share what we know? I was wondering this same thing before I ordered, and the comment below almost caused me to not purchase them. Then I figured that it would almost be impossible to have darkened lenses that don't offer any such protection, so I looked it up online and found a vague answer saying that they did offer some kind of protection. Very pleasantly surprised to see that they offer such thorough protection!

I responded earlier saying I didn't know the difference. After doing a little investigating, it seems that the UV Shield 45 is both a face and body sunscreen for oily to normal skin. The Clear SPF 46 is only a facial sunscreen and is for skin types prone to acne and rosacea. It is supposed to calm and protect acne prone skin. Hope this helps.

It looks like what you are asking about is the sun screen. It is a moisturizer, but I only apply it on skin exposed to the sun and use the non-sunscreen moisturizer on the rest of my body. SPF 30 is adequate for most UVA & UVB protection.

They are not advertised as UVA/B protection, that would lead me to believe they are not.

You would have to ask the manufacturer. They claim to block the UV rays but I am no expert and certainly not the right person to answer this for you. I would hope that they were not falsely advertising that feature, but I am going to assume at the very least that they help regardless.

ArubaGlow Sunscreen Flasks dont say anything about being not sunblock, the entire bottle looks and reads like the real thing. Plus you get a larger collapsible flask.

Only CHERRY and ORIGINAL have sunscreen SPF 4 on the label. WATERMELON does not.

I'm not sure about the spf/uv. I'd it helps though, we bought this to use sightseeing in DC in triple degree temps in July. It was fabulous.

Definitely no. I can tell you this from personal use. It is at a specific light wavelength for acne. Only certain UVA A rays are the 'tanning rays' which bring up the colour in the skin
