The sun, a source of life and good cheer, is an almost daily companion in Morocco and the Middle East. While its benefits are numerous, it is essential to protect the fragile skin of the whole family, especially that of children, from its rays. Good sun protection (واقي شمسي) is the first health step to preserve skin capital. It acts as a shield against sunburn, prevents premature skin aging, and significantly reduces the long-term risks associated with excessive exposure to UVA and UVB rays.
Choosing a suitable sun protection is no longer a compromise between effectiveness and pleasure. Modern formulas offer a variety of textures to meet every need and skin type. From ultra-light fluids for combination to oily skin, to rich creams for dry skin, and practical sprays for the body, each product is designed for a pleasant application without leaving white marks. For children, hypoallergenic and very water-resistant products ensure optimal protection during their games, at the beach or in the park, providing peace of mind for parents.
To meet every skin type and need, our collection of sun protection comes in several formats:
-
SPF50+ and higher sun protection: For very high protection of the face and body, suitable for fair, sensitive skin and children.
-
SPF30+ sun protection: High protection ideal for already tanned skin or for moderate sun exposure.
-
Specific sun care: Anti-dark spot, anti-aging, or mattifying formulas for oily to blemish-prone skin.
-
Tanning sun oils and lotions: To enhance a tan while offering light protection (SPF6).
-
After-sun care: To hydrate, soothe, and repair the skin after exposure.
Which SPF should I choose (50+, 30)?
For children, very fair skin, or during initial sun exposure, an SPF 50+ is essential. An SPF 30 is suitable for olive or already tanned skin. In Morocco, where the sun is intense, it is highly recommended to opt for a high sun protection factor (عامل الحماية من الشمس).
What is the difference between a mineral filter and a chemical filter?
Mineral filters (like zinc oxide) act like a mirror by reflecting UV rays and are ideal for sensitive skin and children. Chemical filters absorb UV rays and convert them into heat. Modern formulas often combine both for optimal protection and a pleasant texture.
What sun protection should I use for a child?
For a child, always choose a very high factor (SPF 50+), a hypoallergenic, fragrance-free formula that is very resistant to water and sand. Sprays or lotions are practical to apply. Remember to reapply every two hours and after each swim for continuous protection.
How to choose a sunscreen for oily skin?
For oily or acne-prone skin, opt for fluid, gel, or "dry touch" textures. These formulas are non-comedogenic, mattifying, and absorb quickly without leaving a greasy film, while offering very high sun protection. They are perfect as a makeup base.
What is the price of a good sunscreen in Morocco?
The price of a quality sunscreen in pharmacies or parapharmacies in Morocco generally ranges from 150 to 350 dirhams (MAD) for a 50 ml format. The cost depends on the brand, the specificity of the formula (anti-dark spot, organic, etc.), and the technology of the filters used.
Should I wear sunscreen (واقي شمسي) every day?
Yes, it is highly recommended to apply sunscreen to your face every morning, even on cloudy days. UVA rays, responsible for skin aging and dark spots, penetrate through clouds and windows. It's the best anti-aging step you can take.
