How to choose a sunscreen

Pick the SPF first, then the texture you will enjoy wearing every day – the sunscreen you actually reapply is the one that protects you.

Reading a sunscreen label

  • SPF shows UVB protection: SPF 30 is high and SPF 50+ is very high.
  • UVA – look for broad-spectrum wording or the UVA logo in a circle.
  • Water resistance – reapply after swimming, sweating or towel-drying, whatever the label says.

Sunscreen in Bahrain's climate

The Gulf sun is strong all year and the UV index peaks around midday. Heat and humidity make heavy creams feel sticky, which is why light fluids, gels and Korean textures are popular here. Keep sunscreen out of a hot car, apply it about 15 minutes before going out, and combine it with shade and clothing. Our guide choosing sunscreen for Bahrain's heat and humidity goes into more detail.

Frequently asked questions

What SPF should I choose?

SPF 30 is a high level and SPF 50+ is very high. Many people in sunny climates choose SPF 50+ for the face. Follow the directions on each pack.

How often should I reapply sunscreen?

Generally every two hours in the sun and after swimming, sweating or towel-drying, unless the label says otherwise.

Which sunscreen is good for oily or acne-prone skin?

Look for light fluids, gels or oil-free formulas labelled for oily skin, which feel less heavy under makeup.

Are Korean sunscreens different?

Korean sunscreens are known for very light creams, milks and serum textures. Check the SPF and UVA rating on the pack, as with any sunscreen.
