Sun allergy

Sun allergy

If your skin becomes irritated when exposed to UV rays, you might be suffering from a sun allergy. How do you recognize it? The skin turns red and blisters or bumps appear. These symptoms are often accompanied by itching and a burning sensation (not to be confused with sunburn).

What to do?

It's best to avoid direct UV rays, of course. If that's not possible, it's essential to use a good sunscreen with at least SPF 50. It's also always a good idea to have after-sun or a mineral water spray nearby. This provides a cooling effect and soothes the itching.

Which products?

A high SPF provides good protection for the skin. SkinEffects' top tip: when choosing a sunscreen, check whether it also includes a factor for UVA rays. This is the radiation that causes allergic reactions on the skin.
