Can I only apply sunscreen? The difference between chemical sunscreen and physical sunscreen

Summer is here, and many girls find it annoying to apply so many things every day, but if they don’t apply them, they can’t protect their skin well. Isn’t sun protection the most important thing in summer? So, can I just apply sunscreen alone? Let’s take a look together.

Can I just wear sunscreen?

It is not recommended to apply sunscreen alone. Although sunscreen can block ultraviolet rays and prevent skin tanning, it is also a cosmetic. Direct contact with the skin will cause certain irritation to the skin, so you also need to apply isolation cream before applying sunscreen.

Sunscreen, BB cream, and primer application order

The order of these products should be sunscreen, primer, and BB cream. And the effect will be better if you wait five minutes for the sunscreen to be absorbed before applying the isolation cream. Because it takes five minutes for the sunscreen to penetrate into the stratum corneum and play a role in sun protection. At this time, applying a primer will not cause mud. Finally, apply BB cream, which will have the most natural makeup effect.

The difference between chemical sunscreen and physical sunscreen

Physical sunscreen relies on reflection or scattering to block ultraviolet rays, thereby achieving the purpose of sun protection. For example, wear sun-protective clothing or hold a sun umbrella. Chemical sunscreen mainly achieves sun protection by absorbing ultraviolet rays through some sunscreen ingredients. Sunscreen will be absorbed by the skin, so the process of absorbing ultraviolet rays actually occurs inside the skin and is finally excreted through human metabolism.

What are the functions and importance of isolation cream?

The main purpose of isolation cream is to protect the skin and reduce the irritation to the skin caused by adverse factors. The skin is exposed to the outside every day and needs to put on some makeup, so some damage is inevitable. The function of isolation cream is to block these external factors. At the same time, in addition to the isolation effect, the isolation cream also adds some color-correcting particles and oil-control or hydrating essences to achieve a balanced skin tone while moisturizing and controlling oil, ensuring that the makeup effect is natural and lasting all day. Many people face computers for a long time at work, and their skin is prone to pigmentation, fine lines, and aging. Using the right isolation cream can inhibit the production of free radicals and prevent premature aging of the skin.
