Sunscreens

    The sun, a source of life and good spirits, 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 children, from its rays. Good sun protection (واقي شمسي) is the first healthy step to preserve skin capital. It acts as a shield against sunburn, prevents premature skin aging, and significantly reduces long-term risks associated with excessive exposure to UVA and UVB rays.

    Choosing suitable sun protection is no longer a compromise between efficacy and pleasure. Modern formulas offer various textures to meet every need and skin type. From ultra-light fluids for combination to oily skin to rich creams for dry skin, including practical body sprays, each product is designed for pleasant application without leaving white marks. For children, hypoallergenic and highly water-resistant products guarantee optimal protection during their games, both at the beach and in the park, ensuring parents' peace of mind.

    To meet every skin type and need, our collection of sun protection comes in several formats:

    • SPF50+ and higher sunscreens: For very high protection of the face and body, suitable for fair, sensitive skin and children.
    • SPF30+ sunscreens: High protection ideal for already tanned skin or for moderate sun exposure.
    • Specific sun care: Anti-spot, anti-aging, or mattifying formulas for oily skin with imperfections.
    • Tanning oils and milks: To enhance tanning while offering light protection (SPF6).
    • After-sun care: To hydrate, soothe, and repair the skin after sun exposure.

    Which SPF factor to choose (50+, 30)?

    For children, very fair skin, or during initial sun exposure, an SPF 50+ is essential. An SPF 30 is suitable for darker skin tones or already tanned skin. In Morocco, where sun exposure is intense, it is strongly recommended to favor a high sun protection factor (عامل الحماية من الشمس).

    What is the difference between a mineral filter and a chemical filter?

    Mineral filters (such as zinc oxide) act like a mirror by reflecting UV rays and are ideal for sensitive skin and children. Chemical filters absorb UV rays and transform them into heat. Modern formulas often combine the two 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 convenient to apply. Remember to reapply every two hours and after every swim for continuous protection.

    How to choose a sunscreen for oily skin?

    For oily or acne-prone skin, favor 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 size. The cost depends on the brand, the specificity of the formula (anti-spot, organic, etc.), and the filter technology used.

    Should you apply sunscreen (واقي شمسي) every day?

    Yes, it is highly recommended to apply sun protection to your face every morning, even on cloudy days. UVA rays, which are responsible for skin aging and dark spots, penetrate clouds and windows. It is the best anti-aging step you can take.
