The accurate scientific terminology for UV filters is organic (chemical, these types of as avobenzone, octocrylene or oxybenzone) or inorganic (actual physical, this sort of as titanium dioxide or zinc oxide).
Both equally sorts perform by absorbing the rays and turning them into heat, but with inorganic aka actual physical sunscreens, involving 5% and 10% of incoming rays are mirrored and scattered.
With natural and organic filters (‘chemical’ in the standard, non-scientific feeling), the UV rays are mainly absorbed and turned into warmth in the skin.
Always implement past right after moisturiser, right before makeup – unless if not stated.
Reapply each two several hours if in energetic sun (on vacation, sunbathing, commonly staying outside the house all working day).
Reapply soon after swimming or too much sweating/drying off with a towel.
