They should be applied on wexposed areas 30 minutes efore sun expose and dutiny the day the application should be repeated multiple times. Essentially we should not expose ouselves to sunshine between 10 am and 3pm and childern under 3 years of age should not be exposed at all.

The duality and principles of protection are regulated by European institution COLIPA.
