In the European Union, a sunscreen that achieves a UVA protection rating of one third or O.5.4.3.2 more of the UVB protection (SPF) is allowed to use a logo comprising a circle with the capital letters UVA inside it and the relevant number of stars may also be placed inside the circle.O.5.4.4SunscreensO.5.4.4.1 Sunscreens are products which combine several ingredients to help prevent the sun's UV radiation from reaching the skin. Sunscreens that protect against both UVA and UVB radiation, which are known as broad spectrum sunscreens, are recommended.O.5.4.4.2 Sunscreens with a minimum SPF of 30 and a UVA rating of 4 or 5 stars are generally considered to be an adequate standard of protection. Sunscreens with a higher SPF do give a higher protection against UVB rays but not proportionally, e.g. an SPF 60 sunscreen does not give twice as much protection as an SPF 30 sunscreen.© IRATA International Annex O Page 43 of 45 2017-Aug-01
