The SPF values of sunscreen spray in China and abroad vary greatly
When choosing sunscreen cosmetics, people often look at the sun protection index (SPF), especially when buying products from cross-border e-commerce, because SPF and the Arabic numerals followed by SPF are common around the world.
"In China, the SPF is not higher than 50, and if it is higher than 50, it is labeled 50+ on sunscreen spray bottle
, while some countries allow SPF higher than 50. Therefore, a product is labeled with two SPF at the same time, which is a regular imported sunscreen cosmetics. When it is produced abroad, it is labeled with an SPF value according to the foreign regulations. When it comes to China, it is labeled with a Chinese label and another SPF value according to the Chinese regulations.
On the other hand, if the product is not labeled in Chinese, it is often imported informally." Some consumers also find that the difference between domestic and foreign SPF values is very big.
For example, one is 50+, one is as high as 80-90, this is because there are many ways to test SPF, China only admits the most strict human method, that is, to do experiments on people; And some countries also recognize the machine method or even formula method, machine method is to test the performance of sunscreen products on the machine, formula method is more simple, even do not need to do the experiment, with the formula directly calculate the SPF value. So the results of the same vegan organic spray sunscreen spray spf 50+ tested in China can be very different from those tested abroad.
Sunscreen cosmetics imported into China to carry out human body test?
The answer is: no.
