The sunscreen guide

Out to enjoy the sun, a bath and outdoor dining? Remember to use sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun’s UV rays.

Sunny summer days are meant to be enjoyed outside and you can find sunscreen at, among others, Signaturklinikken and Best of You. It is important to protect yourself from the sun's rays and avoid getting sunburned, as it can increase the risk of skin cancer, leads to early aging and wrinkles, and dries out the skin. A general piece of advice when it comes to sunscreen is to apply evenly and use enough cream so that you achieve the sun factor stated on the bottle.

The Norwegian Cancer Society's recommendations are to use a minimum sun protection factor of 30. Apply about half an hour before going out in the sun and repeat the application throughout the day, especially after swimming.

Signaturklinikken in Rostockgata is a skin clinic with high competence and experienced practitioners. Here, they also carry selected brands in, among other things, sun cream. One of the brands they recommend is Inno-Derma, an ultra-light sun cream. Another tip is the spray from COOLA for super easy application and which gets everywhere. If you are looking for a sunscreen with color for your face, they have Colorescience Face Shield Flex. A light mineral sunscreen with tinted coverage that instantly evens out skin tone for a flawless look.

In the series you will find, among other things, ZO Sunscreen+ Powder, which is a brush that evenly applies light-reflecting mineral powder with a sun factor and a hint of color for a natural glow.
