  Just curious: what did you ask them?

  Here the technology is well explained:

  Interesting. I wonder how that affects their UV claims and water resistance. If they have a static SPF 30 but the SPF goes up to 35 after water resistance testing, are they claiming SPF 35 or 30?

  I guess they claim to offer the SPF that was tested on dry skin.

  The rule is that you always have to use the lowest value.
