BASF Care Creations supports Skin Cancer Awareness month with expertise in Zinc Oxide & high SPF formulations!

According to the CDC, skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S., but measures such as wearing at least an SPF 30 sunscreen every day, limiting exposure to the sun during peak hours, and wearing protective clothing can help mitigate this risk. Skin cancer is also highly treatable when detected early, so the American Academy of Dermatology Association encourages regular skin self-exams using the ABCDEs of melanoma.

BASF strives to help prevent Skin Cancer through our portfolio of mineral Zinc Oxide products which offer broad-spectrum SPF. During Skin Cancer Awareness month, we feel it’s important to highlight the need for daily use of an SPF and how mineral filters can solve current consumer needs in sun care. Brands must adapt to relevant consumer demands, which is why BASF has developed expertise in topics such as high SPF formulations and innovative Sun Care formats that allow consumers to protect themselves on the go.
