SPF 15
Minimal sun block
SPF 15 is a sun protection factor rating indicating a sunscreen blocks about 93% of UVB rays, allowing roughly 1/15th of the burning radiation through.
It theoretically extends safe sun exposure time by a factor of fifteen: if you'd burn in ten minutes unprotected, SPF 15 should give you about 150 minutes.
SPF 15 is fine for running errands, but I use higher for the beach.
