An SPF of 20 means that the sunscreen can theoretically protect your skin from UVB rays for 20 times longer than if you were not wearing any sunscreen. For example, if you would normally start to burn after 10 minutes in the sun, SPF 20 could provide about 200 minutes of protection (though this varies based on factors like skin type, activity level, and reapplication). It's important to apply sunscreen generously and reapply it every two hours, or more often if swimming or sweating, to maintain its effectiveness.
