Tanning oil with SPF 8 technically is sunscreen, but it’s just not enough protection. The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends using broad-spectrum tanning with at least SPF 15. But should you go higher? Some say the often-pricier high-SPF sunscreens are a waste of money, since they don’t provide much more protection—SPF 30 blocks 97% of rays, while SPF 50 blocks just 1% more. However, they do have some benefit. Using sunscreen with an improper amount of SPF for your skin type can result in skin cancer. You have to be careful when selecting your sunscreen to make sure you get the best/safest kind for you.
