Testing sunscreen creams. Female researcher checking a sunscreen cream on a woman's back, as a man tests a cream's water resistance. Suncreams block the Sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays, preventing them from damaging the skin. Along with their UV- blocking ability, their appearance, smell and ease of application must also be tested. Photographed at the Laboratoire de L'Oreal in Clichy, near Paris, France.
