What am I referring to? The PA system (Protection grade against UVA). This system is based on three levels: PA+, PA++ and PA+++. PA+ is the lowest level of protection against UVA rays while PA+++ is the highest level of protection against UVA radiation. This system was developed in Japan and is getting more recognition as product availability expands worldwide.
As more people become educated on the dangers of UVA, this PA rating system will surely gain more attention.
If you want to know more about the dangers of UVA please refer to my “Why you need to Protect Yourself from the Sun Year round” blog.
For more general information concerning sunscreen, please read my “Tips and Tricks you may not know About Sunscreen” blog.
