The correct order of using sunscreen and the difference between sunscreen

Sunscreen lotion is also used for sun protection. It is indispensable in summer. What is the correct order of using this sunscreen lotion? What is the difference between sunscreen lotion and sunblock?

The correct order of using sunscreen

After thoroughly cleansing the skin, first follow the daily skin care steps, then squeeze out a sufficient amount of sunscreen on the palm of your hand; apply the sunscreen evenly on the face, taking care to avoid the skin around the eyes, and do not ignore the neck, chin, ears and other parts; the sunscreen is relatively thin and can be applied repeatedly to ensure that it reaches at least 2 mg per square centimeter. After the sunscreen is absorbed, apply isolation, BB and other makeup.

Precautions for using sunscreen

1. Sunscreen lotion is a kind of sunscreen product. It should be used as the last step of skin care and before all makeup products. Only in this way can the best sunscreen effect be guaranteed;

2. If it is a physical sunscreen, or contains physical sunscreen, be sure to apply it about 20 minutes before going out, because physical sunscreen takes a certain amount of time to work;

3. The sun protection effect of sunscreen lotion is not as long-lasting as that of ordinary sunscreen, nor is it as waterproof as some sunscreens, so you must reapply it frequently when outdoors, every 1 to 2 hours.

The difference between sunscreen and sun cream

The biggest difference between sunscreen and sunscreen lotion is that sunscreen is thicker and oilier, while sunscreen lotion is relatively light and breathable, and will not put too much burden on the skin whether in summer or winter.

2. Suitable for different skin types

Sunscreen and sunscreen lotion have different textures, which makes them suitable for different skin types. Sunscreen is more suitable for dry skin, while the light texture of sunscreen lotion is more suitable for oily or oily skin. But in summer, it’s okay for girls with dry skin to use sunscreen!

3. Different sun protection effects
