SUNSCREEN in UV

As far as I know The reason why mineral sunscreens and chemical sunscreens are categorized that way and mineral ones are deemed "safer" is because the mineral sunscreens just sit on top of your skin and creates a barrier and the difference of how it protects the skin from sun damage of course which as stated is physical sunscreens reflects light while chemical sunscreens absorbs heat and processes it as heat energy, releasing that heat from the skin which along with so many other factors, aggravates those with sensitive skin. However, the severity of this depends on the photo stability of the chemical uv filter used. That's why US chemical sunscreens seems so horrible, because they ban newer ingredients and the FDA doesn't approve it so easily. However some of the approved ingredients have been proven to damage marine life, and are more photo unstable and some even have studies stating it causes oxidative stress and irritations. European and Asian chemical and hybrid (having both chemical and physical uv filters) sunscreens however are doing pretty well with the newer uv filters and ingredients.
