What's the difference between sunscreen and isolation cream?

As well as moisturizing, isolation sun protection is often confused, many people are not clear about sunscreen and isolation cream, although now many products of isolation and sunscreen efficacy together, but the difference between isolation sun protection is still very obvious, which also determines the order of sunscreen and isolation.

In the summer sun protection tips, isolation sun protection is often mentioned, today to talk about this topic! So, what's the difference between sunscreen and sunscreen? Which should I put on first?

Sunscreen is skin care, isolation cream is makeup

By definition, sunscreen is skin care products, and isolation cream is cosmetics, to figure out the classification of these two, presumably their maintenance and damage to the skin's strength, it is self-evident.

Sunscreen needs to stick to the skin and form a film to block UV damage. If the cream is applied before the sunscreen, it will affect the film forming effect of the sunscreen and fail to achieve the purpose of protection.

The attraction of the isolation cream is that it can isolate dust, makeup and ultraviolet rays, as if there are two more functions than sunscreen, in fact, you put any skin care products on your face, can block dust and makeup, as for the isolation of ultraviolet rays, isolation cream is obviously not as professional as sunscreen.

The correct skin care is to "do subtraction", that is, to minimize the damage of chemical substances is the best skin care. So, after completing the basic skin care, directly applying sunscreen is enough.

When it comes to the proper application process of sunscreen, many dermatologists give advice: sunscreen should be used before applying cosmetics, and the sun protection is better.

The function of the isolation cream

The isolation cream focuses more on the effect of brightening and modifying the skin color, preventing dust, light, and radiation in the air from harming the skin. Strictly speaking, it should be a product of the makeup line, it is a makeup primer, was originally invented to protect the skin from cosmetic damage. Therefore, the main function of the isolation cream is to isolate the contact between makeup and skin and protect the skin from harmful substances in cosmetics. As a primer, the primer also makes the makeup more delicate and easy to wear.

The main functions of sunscreen

The main function of sunscreen is to resist the ultraviolet rays in the light and minimize the irritation and damage to the skin. The sun protection products on the market are mainly divided into two types, one is chemical sunscreen products, and the other is physical sunscreen products.

Physical sunscreen contains titanium dioxide, zinc oxide and other ingredients, which are laid out on the skin in the form of particles, forming a film that reflects ultraviolet light. Advantages Low sensitization, not easy to cause photo-degradation damage to the skin, the disadvantages are relatively thick and greasy; Chemical sunscreens also form a film on the skin, but their job is to absorb UV rays and prevent them from entering the bottom layer of the skin. The texture is relatively thin.

How to use sunscreen and isolation cream

A lot of people don't know how to use sunscreens and creams, which are messy and apply in circles like lotions. Therefore, it is easy to cause uneven smear and white marks.

Applying sunscreen and isolation cream must be the best way to gently press and pat, this method of sunscreen isolation not only leaves no traces, but also prevents the phenomenon of rubbing mud.

When do you use cream or sunscreen

Isolation cream generally separates the dirty air from the skin, and has the effect of sun protection and radiation protection, but the general isolat ion cream has a low SPF, so it is generally OK to apply the isolation cream directly after the basic skin care when you do not need severe sun protection. When UV rays are strong (such as in the summer), you need to use a sunscreen with a certain SPF, and use it after the sunscreen to increase the protection.

If you're staying indoors all day, you can use a cream instead of sunscreen. Especially white-collar workers who often face computers, must do a good job of isolating radiation, and the choice of isolation cream is very important at this time.

Note: In fact, the sun protection work is needed all year round, as long as you stay outdoors for 1 hour, but the isolation also has a certain role in the sun protection, but not so targeted, so the use of isolation in the case of UV light is not strong.
