What Are Uva Rays?
"Uva Rays Are The Aging Rays"

UVA rays is ultraviolet light coming from the sun, with a wavelength that goes from 320nm to 400nm. For a long time it was thought that this rays were harmless for the skin, because researchers believed that they didn't reach the skin's first layers.
Experts know now, that is in fact the opposite, and that this rays, which have a longer wavelength penetrate deep into the epidermis, up to the dermis, damaging collagen and cells. There are more of this rays in sunlight than uvb rays, and they are the main responsible for - premature skin aging
- pigmentation
- skin tanning
- and are even related to some forms of skin cancer
The damage produced by them accumulates with each exposure. Uva rays pass through windows, and can reflect off water, sand and snow increasing the chances for your skin to absorb more sunlight. They also produce the same damage in summer or in winter, even in cloudy days without you being aware of it.
Because this type of rays are strongest between 10am and 4pm and are very damaging for our skin, it will be a good idea to check the Ultraviolet Index (UVI) before going out. UVI is a number that goes from 1 to 11, and indicates the amount of uva rays reaching the Earth's surface, at any point in time. You can find this in the weather section of any local newspaper. The higher the UVI number, the more intense the exposure is.
