How Do Physical Sunscreens Compare to Chemical Sunscreens?
In contrast to physical sunscreens, chemical sunscreens absorb UV radiation and transform it into heat. Some chemical sunscreen ingredients have raised concerns due to their potential for systemic absorption and possible endocrine-disrupting effects. Physical sunscreens, with their minimal absorption and inert nature, are often recommended for individuals with sensitive skin or those concerned about the systemic effects of chemical sunscreens.
