This is late, but I'll take this challenge on. I get sunburns under my eyes extremely easily and for years my family couldn't find the right kind of sunscreen for that area. But along came spf 100 Neutrogena face sunscreen stuff am it no longer happens when I put it on there. I believe that it's a higher sun protection factor for a reason (being that lying about that is highly punishable), and I am a pretty good candidate because hardly anyone is as pale as I am. I have my dad's skin for the most part (I don't freckle as easily or as conspicuously), and he's a ginger. Burns happen more often than tans.
So if you wanted to know (which I doubt you did) spf 50 blocks about 90-95% of uv rays while spf 100 block 97-98% of em. It’s not a drastic increase like the 50 spf difference leads us to believe, but for some people it’s a very important difference. i remember in school when you’d go on field trips and they’d give you spf 35 and all the kids would be fine and I’d be a burnt biscuit so the necessary protection isn’t the same for everyone

I've only ever used SPA 4 or 8. And I'm really white. Unless it's for infants or people with skin conditions I think anything over SPF 15 is overkill.
Fuck that. I'm like hella white ( think average Irish person ) I live in Texas and just going outside to watch nephews while their parents go to the bathroom I get a sunburn across my cheeks. I need the strongest they got.
