Freakin' super 50+ SPF sunscreen!

30+ is soon to be no longer the max.
Hey wait this one keeps away bugs too!
50+ SPF ( or should that be Sun Protection Freakin Factor)  factor sunscreen is soon to be out there protecting us fair skin folk from that giant plasma and fusion reactions some 8 light minutes away from us, oh yeah they call it the sun for short.

It's something we might be seeing in Mid January reports are saying, oh wow, surely that will be too late by then, what SPF 30 is not enough?

The SMH reports tl;dr mostly but this bit on the end was handy...


The last change in standard, from SPF15+ to SPF30+ was in 1997. Professor Diona Damian of the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, says the latest change allowed by the TGA is an overdue step "but not a radical one".

Who is this TGA? oh that's just the Theraputic Goods administration, it's kinda like the FDA(Food and Drugs Administration) in the US. Oh dear they combine Food and Drugs. I guess what goes in you might kill you.
