How much sun protection is provided on the UPF or SPF scale?

I ride a Harley for hours at a time wearing the sleeves. I am also a very pale red head. The sleeves are VERY good at protecting the skin. I never wear sunscreen on my arms now. the longest I have ridden is 5 hours on a 90 degree day and I noticed an ever so slight pinkness but nothing approaching a sunburn.

The description says UPF 40+. I would recommend putting sunblock on underneath and reapplying. I have noticed still getting sunburn after many hours in the sun if I don't re-apply some sunblock during triathlons.

This product is awesome. I dont spend a lot of time in the sun either but the spf is just extra protection. Also makes my face more moisturized than the one without spf

No. There is no SPF listed. I assume its more of a moisturizer than a sunscreen.

The formula is SPF 32. The bullet points contained a typo. FDA changed the OTC monograph in 2011, enforceable in 2012, and we had to have all the formulas retested under it, instead of the 1999 monograph, which while never enforced was still the proper way to test sunscreens. The formulas tested a bit higher under the 2011 monograph, but inconsequentially; the difference in protection between SPF 20 and 32 is about 2% (95% vs 97%) given the non-linear mathematics of SPF and UV protection. The formula is labeled correctly at SPF 32.

That depends on how much you add to your lotion. My understanding is that if you want an SPF of 20+, you need to use 25% of the weight of your initial amount of lotion. That is if you use 8 oz of lotion, you would need to add 2 oz of zinc oxide to get an SPF of 20 or so. That is my understanding. I mostly use this product for diaper cream. Oh, also zinc oxide shouldn't be ingested so when working with it, make sure not to inhale it.

It doesn't indicate an SPF factor. It does say it repairs dry damaged hair, seals and protects, controls frizz, detangles, stops breakage, etc. Lots of benefits

UV Clear SPF 46 is formulated for skin types prone to acne, rosacea and hyperpigmentation. UV Daily SPF40 is a moisturizing sunscreen for normal or combination skin types, which is also tinted. I assume that translates into having different ingredients, hence, the difference in price. I know there was a price difference at my doctor's office as well. Like I stated in my review, I had to exchange the SPF40 for the SPF46 because the 40 caused my face to turn red. The 46 truly is much milder for me and doesn't cause any irritation. You can check you their website at eltamd.com for additional product info.

Hi George, 1TBS + 4TBS of any lotion (home made or store-bought) will give you about 20 SPF, here is a great link that explains how that works:http://www.livestrong.com/article/88858-add-zinc-oxide-regular-lotion/And this links gives a great recipe for DIY Waterproof Sunscreen (it's from one of our lovely customers):http://www.realfoodrn.com/diy-waterproof-sunscreen-thats-good-skin/Hope this helps :)

You might want 2. I used probably 1/2 in 3 weeks or so. Make sure it is SPF 30 and you won't need to use suncscreen. I used it on everywhere except face.

If you need further hep let me know. I hope this helps! Thanks. ~HAPPY!!!!

I'm not sure..I had only used this in a tanning bed and maybe that's why I didn't get the results I expected but. But spf is a sun protectant that I would recommend in combination of the browning lotion.

The label on the hat indicated so, but not sure how to verify. I did wear a sun hat that wasn't labeled spf protected and can tell you this one is cooler on my headvand face.

Does not state a quantity. Here is what the back of the tube says...Our daily facial moisturizer is also a broad spectrum sunscreen with an SPF rating of 30. Made with organic aloe vera and sunflower seed oil & enriched with Vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant to help defend against the damaging effects of free radicals that prematurely age skin.

It doesn't say anything about sun protection, so I assume it has no. Usually they mark it as SPF 15.
