Physical sunscreen:

As the name suggests, it uses the principles of physics. The atomic particles of this sunscreen are flaky. When applied on the face, they act like a mirror, reflecting sunlight and achieving the purpose of sun protection, which distinguishes it from chemical sunscreen.

Chemical sunscreens:

Chemical sunscreen absorbs ultraviolet rays and then releases them in a lower energy form, avoiding direct damage from ultraviolet rays. As we all know, ultraviolet rays can be divided into two types, UVA and UVB, according to different wavelengths, and chemical sunscreens add these two different absorbers. In chemical sunscreens, the higher the sun protection factor (SPF value), the longer the sun protection time. Some friends will ask, why do I have to reapply frequently? That's because the sunscreen is gradually oxidized while absorbing ultraviolet rays. When it absorbs to a certain extent, the sun protection effect will weaken, so it should be reapplied in time according to the intensity and time of ultraviolet rays.

Advantages of chemical sunscreen: Generally, the texture is refreshing and the skin does not feel heavy after application.

Disadvantages of chemical sunscreen: it needs to be reapplied regularly, and if you choose a sunscreen containing lead or mercury, long-term use will cause skin dependence and damage skin cells and structures.
