Chemical vs Physical Sunscreens: The Science | Lab Muffin Beauty Science

Are chemical or physical sunscreens better? I touched on this in my Sunscreen and Make-up video (https://youtu.be/XULpx1jaREo), but a lot of people have been asking me to talk more about it, so I’ve expanded on the topic here! Full post with references and more details here: https://labmuffin.com/chemical-vs-physical-sunscreens-the-science-with-video/ I talk about: 1:00 How the two types of sunscreens (chemical/organic and physical/inorganic) work 2:55 Advantages and disadvantages of the two types (protection level, white cast, texture, sensitivity) 7:15 Myths about chemical and physical sunscreens * How to apply * Naturalness * Whether the heat produced damages your skin * Reapplication * How much to apply * Health concerns (hormonal disruption, nanoparticles, photoreactivity/free radicals) 15:55 Product recommendations (only a few - I’m working on more sunscreen reviews!)
