UVA rays are considered more dangerous than UVB rays for three main reasons:
- They penetrate deeper into the skin.
- Exposure is painless, and their harmful effects become apparent only over time.
- Long-term exposure to UVA rays can be significantly more harmful than UVB exposure.
-
Melanoma is an aggressive form of skin cancer caused by the malignant transformation of melanocytes. The primary environmental risk factor for melanoma is excessive, unprotected, and repeated exposure to UV radiation.
Although mortality rates have declined, global incidence has risen sharply over the past 50 years. Melanoma is rare before puberty but is most commonly diagnosed in individuals aged 30 to 60 years, particularly in higher socioeconomic groups.
In Italy, melanoma is the third most common cancer in individuals under 50, with an estimated 12,700 new cases in 2023 (7,000 in men and 5,700 in women).
-
Yes, altitude and the presence of snow significantly increase sun exposure risks and the intensity of UV radiation.
The increase in UVA radiation at higher altitudes occurs due to the reduction in atmospheric density as elevation rises. The higher you go, the less atmosphere there is to filter UV rays, meaning that UVA radiation reaches the Earth’s surface with greater intensity.
While the exact increase may vary, it is generally estimated that for every 300-metre rise in altitude, UVA radiation intensity increases by approximately 4-5%. This means that at higher elevations, UVA exposure is significantly greater than at lower altitudes. -
Protecting yourself from UV radiation is essential to safeguard your health and prevent short- and long-term damage.
The most effective methods include:
- Wearing protective clothing, including UV-resistant fabrics, especially during outdoor activities.
- Using sunscreens containing UV filters.
According to EU Regulation No. 1223/2009 on cosmetic products, UV filters are substances intended primarily to protect the skin from UV radiation through absorption, reflection, or dispersion.
Sunscreen should be reapplied consistently, typically every two hours.
Be mindful.
be unstoppable.
LOVED BY ATHLETES EVERYWHERE
Super stoked
SUNO sunscreens are light, absorb well, and feel great on the skin.
Moreover, the protection is truly effective, and this really makes a difference for me.

Qualities that make all the difference
It almost feels like you haven’t put anything on your skin. It doesn’t run, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave that sticky feeling you get with other sunscreens.

I’m definitely a fan
Usually, sunscreen ends up running into my eyes which can become a problem, but this one didn’t budge. So yep, I’m definitely a fan. Great product!

I highly recommend them!
I use Face before my training, and even when I sweat a lot, it doesn’t run! I like to apply it about half an hour before going for a run, and it doesn’t bother me at all. Most importantly, it’s not greasy. I like it!
Martina De Silvestro
Athlete and Ski Instructor
Effective and pleasant.
I haven’t experienced the extra sweating that occurs with other sunscreens. They are effective, don't stick, and don’t interfere with physical activity.

My go-to base every morning
FACE has a nice consistency and doesn’t run, so it naturally becomes my go-to base every morning, regardless of whether I do any sports activities or not.

Comfort and protection
The sunscreens are lightweight, which is a positive for me because it's almost like I don't feel them. When I do sports, they don't cause any discomfort, especially since they don’t run.
Joaquin Vieytes
Ultra Runner
They positively surprised me!
The thing I appreciated the most is that it doesn’t run with sweat, so it doesn’t end up in the eyes. It has a light texture, spreads easily, and absorbs quickly without that sticky or greasy feeling.
