In June 2026, an analysis revealed significant differences in the cost of sun protection products among residents of three major Slovenian cities—Ljubljana, Celje, and Maribor. The study focused on the average expenditure required for proper skin protection during the hottest months, based on dermatological recommendations and the availability of SPF products in Slovenia. According to the findings, the average resident of Ljubljana or Celje would have spent approximately 54 euros on sunscreen if they had followed professional guidelines strictly, while residents of Maribor would have spent about 43 euros. This difference was attributed primarily to the number of hot days recorded in each city during the month of June.
The calculation behind these figures was based on data from the Slovenian Environment Agency (ARSO) and METAR weather reports. Both Ljubljana and Celje experienced 15 days with temperatures of 30°C or higher, whereas Maribor had 12 such days. These high-temperature days often coincided with periods of intense ultraviolet radiation, making sun protection particularly important. The analysis assumed one full application of sunscreen per hot day as a conservative estimate for an urban lifestyle, resulting in a total monthly usage of around 450 milliliters of product.
To achieve the declared SPF factor, approximately 2 milligrams of sunscreen must be applied per square centimeter of skin. For an average adult, this equates to roughly 30 milliliters for a single full-body application. Considering the average market price of sunscreen, which stands at 0.12 euros per milliliter, one application costs approximately 3.60 euros. Multiplying this amount by the number of hot days yields the previously mentioned monthly cost per person. The disparity between Ljubljana/Celje and Maribor stems solely from the differing numbers of hot days, although in practice, the cost could be even greater due to the recommendation to use sunscreen even on days with lower temperatures but high UV indices.
Moreover, the cost can vary significantly depending on the brand and quality of the sunscreen used. In the most expensive theoretical scenario, the monthly cost could reach up to 180 euros, especially when using premium products. However, despite these calculations, the real-world situation remains unclear regarding how many individuals actually follow dermatological advice for sun protection.
According to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, only 12.3 percent of men and 29 percent of women regularly apply sunscreen after being exposed to the sun for more than an hour. Most people either use it occasionally or not at all. Other studies indicate that regular users apply sunscreen on nearly 99 percent of days spent at the beach, but this drops to about 50 percent on partially cloudy days. Sunscreen is commonly associated with going to the beach rather than with typical hot days in the city, and its use should depend mainly on the time spent outdoors.
Research published in the *British Journal of Dermatology* shows that the average resident of Western countries spends just under two hours outside during a workday, which corresponds to one recommended application of sunscreen, also considered in this analysis. Despite the majority of people not using the recommended amounts of such products, the analysis highlights the potential cost of adhering strictly to dermatological recommendations during an exceptionally hot month. In other words, a single daily application of sunscreen during a very hot month could mean almost half a liter of product used and over 50 euros spent per person.
Meanwhile, unrelated news emerged from Ljubljana where authorities were searching for a missing teenager named Lina Bauer. She is described as tall, around 164 centimeters, with a slim build, black hair cut short at the sides, blue eyes, and a small nose. She was last seen in the area of Laško or Celje. Police are urging anyone with information to contact local police stations or call emergency numbers. This incident adds another layer to the ongoing discussions about safety and public health in the region, highlighting the diverse challenges faced by communities in Slovenia.

DnevnikIndependiente🔒CentroVeracidad 90Objetividad 95hace 7 dThe article discusses the importance of eye protection from the sun, particularly for people who wear corrective lenses daily. Experts emphasize that dark lenses are not the only solution for preventing eye conditions like cataracts and macular degeneration. They explain that modern corrective lenses made of materials such as polycarbonate often include built-in UV protection. However, if these lenses lack proper UV shielding, they may not offer adequate protection. The article advises consulting an optician to ensure that corrective glasses provide sufficient UV400 protection and warns against purchasing cheap, poorly protected sunglasses sold at street stalls or beaches, which can cause more harm than good by allowing excessive UV exposure. Proper eye protection involves using certified sunglasses, wide-brimmed hats, and sunscreen.

It calculates the average cost of proper sunscreen application for residents of Ljubljana and Celje versus Maribor, using price comparisons from Shoptok.si and recommendations from dermatological guidelines. The analysis estimates that the average monthly cost for correct sunscreen use in Ljubljana and Celje would be around €54, while in Maribor it would be approximately €43.
