In the hot summer, the demand for sunscreen products surges, and imported sunscreens, isolation lotions, etc. have become popular categories of imported cosmetics.
Sunscreen lotion, also known as sunscreen cream or sunscreen lotion, is an emulsified skin care product with added sunscreen agents. Its main function is to block or absorb ultraviolet rays through physical or chemical means to prevent skin damage due to overexposure to the sun. Its form is usually between water and oil, and its texture is relatively light and thin. It has both moisturizing and sunscreen functions, and is suitable for most skin types and daily scenarios.
With the advancement of technology, sunscreen has developed into various types such as physical sunscreen, chemical sunscreen and physical and chemical combination sunscreen, which are widely used in daily skin care, outdoor sports and medical beauty repair and other fields.
The history of sunscreen can be traced back to ancient times. The ancient Egyptians used plant extracts for sun protection, and ancient Greek athletes used olive oil to apply to their bodies. The development of modern sunscreen began in the early 20th century.
