SPF evaluation, which quantifies a product&#8217;s protection against UVB + UVA rays, is carried out in accordance with the latest standards in force. This approach is part of our drive to optimize product development and comply with regulatory requirements. Note that SPF will be impacted by several factors (phototype, quantity, spreading quality, external conditions, etc.) and should be considered as a scale (indication) of relative effectiveness in limiting the appearance of erythema, used as a reference for consumer choice.
