*UPF is nominally a measure of how much longer you could stay in the sun just like SPF. In actual use UPF of 15 ~ SPF of 45 because most users get only about 1/3 the advertised protection. SPF is a measure of skin reddening caused by UVB measured under ideal conditions. UPF includes UVB (290-320 nm.) and also UVA (320-400 nm.), which causes damage and cancer with little or no reddening. UPF is measured by precise instruments and represents the minimum level of protection expected.
