Skin Phototypes

The phototype refers to the classification of skin types based on their reaction to sun exposure, particularly their tendency to tan or burn. It depends on factors such as skin, eye, and hair colour, as well as sensitivity to UV rays. Knowing your phototype helps to tailor your sun protection and prevent sun-related risks.
