Abstract:
The main objective of this work is to develop a range of sunscreen cream. This range consists of three facial sunscreen creams with different degrees of protection, a sunscreen body lotion and an aftersun . The most important aspect to consider when we use a sunscreen lotion is its SPF or sun protection factor, which indicates how many hours you can be exposed to the sun to produce the same effects as if you didn’t use sunscreen. In the synthesis of creams and emulsions for this purpose it is essential to use multiple filters, organic and inorganic, to achieve a certain SPF and help consumers to protect themselves from UVA and UVB rays during sun exposure . You can not get to establish an optimum SPF because not everyone has the same risk for developing a disease caused by exposure to such radiation, plus the need for a sunscreen or another also depends on the geographic region.
