Is the sunscreen stick a physical sunscreen? How often do I need to reapply it?

Many people have used sunscreen sticks, and their effect is not much different from that of sunscreen. So are sunscreen sticks physical sunscreen? How often do I need to reapply sunscreen stick?

Is sunscreen stick a physical sunscreen?

Most are chemical sunscreens.

Physical sunscreen is to paste various raw materials on your face to block ultraviolet rays, so your skin is so thick that the sun can't penetrate it, so physical sunscreen is generally sticky, white, and heavy!

Advantages: Because it does not blend too much with the skin, it is better for sensitive skin, pregnant women and children.

Chemical sunscreen contains substances that can absorb UV rays and convert them into heat energy, so there is no UVA/UVB that can damage the skin!

Advantages: It is lighter and thinner than physical sunscreen, and feels better when used! The disadvantage is that it may not be friendly to sensitive skin!

From what I have seen on the market, not only sunscreen sticks, but other sunscreen products are either chemical sunscreen or mixed sunscreen. Purely physical ones are rare.

How often do you need to reapply sunscreen stick?

Usually two to three hours

Suitable for all ages in all seasons, recommended for children over 7 years old

At the end of basic care, rotate the lower end of the container and apply it evenly in circles on the face, neck, arms, legs and other parts exposed to ultraviolet rays, especially on the cheekbones, forehead and nose bridge that are easily exposed to ultraviolet rays. Repeat the application once more.

Okay, friends, you know that most sunscreen sticks are chemical sunscreens.
