WET APPLIABLE SUNSCREEN AND MAKEUP AND METHOD FOR TESTING SUNSCREENS FOR EFFICACY

摘要

The sunscreen or makeup may be applied to a person who is wet, or even underwater, yet it will provide the full efficacy which it would have had had it been applied to the person when his skin was dry. In addition, it will be effective from the time that it is first applied, so no waiting period is required, as was the case for the so-called "water resistant" and "waterproof" sunscreens of the prior art. A series of test procedures which illustrate the efficacy of the "wet-appliable" sunscreens of the present invention are disclosed.
