First of all if you don't use sun scream your skin will go red as it will have burnt. Exposure to sunlight can cause premature ageing of the skin. This means you will get wrinkles much earlier than you should do. And most importantly, exposure to sunlight with out sunscreen can damage cells and cause skin cancer

Do perfumes have sunscreen?

Perfumes typically do not contain sunscreen ingredients. While some body sprays or lotions may include SPF (sun protection factor) to protect the skin from UV rays, most perfumes are focused on fragrance and do not offer any sun protection. If you're looking for both scent and sun protection, you would need to use a separate sunscreen product in addition to your perfume.


What do I need to consider when searching for the best sunscreen?

You will need to find a sunscreen which has effective broad-spectrum protection. A sunscreen that has a SPF 30 blocks 97 percent of the ultra-violet sun rays. You need to remember to apply it several times when you are out in the sun, not just once. You will still tan, but at a slower, safer rate by generously applying the sunscreen so often.
