Speaking of sunscreen, there are really a lot of them in this world. What are the differences between physical sunscreen and chemical sunscreen? Which type of Biore sunscreen is it?

The difference between physical sunscreen and chemical sunscreen

Physical sunscreen achieves the sunscreen effect by reflecting and scattering ultraviolet rays such as UVA and UVB. It has the advantages of stability and high safety, but it has a thick texture and tends to turn white and unnatural after application, and it may clog pores. Chemical sunscreen achieves the sunscreen effect by selectively absorbing ultraviolet rays of different wavelengths. It has the advantages of a light texture and easy application, but it may irritate the skin.

Is Biore sunscreen a physical sunscreen?

All of Biore's sunscreens are not purely physical sunscreens. Some of them use a combination of physical sunscreens and chemical sunscreens, while others are purely chemical sunscreens. The chemical sunscreen ingredient uses ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, which is not good for pregnant women, so pregnant women should not use them. At the same time, chemical sunscreens are somewhat irritating, so they should be used with caution on sensitive skin.

Does Biore Sunscreen Cause Acne?

The texture of Biore sunscreen is very, very smooth, it can almost be used as a primer, and it has the effect of smoothing the skin. It feels good to use. It will be a bit oily when first applied, but it will dry up quickly. It is recommended to pair it with a more moisturizing foundation afterwards. It is very waterproof and will not come off on your hands no matter how you rinse it, so you must remove your makeup properly. Biore's sunscreens are all quite good. The point is, with such a refreshing texture, it certainly won’t cause acne, so girls with acne-prone skin can buy it without any worries!
