The most well-known are the negative ones caused by the energy of UV rays, which are so energetic that they break the DNA chain of skin cells. While cells have DNA repair systems, over time defects can still occur which can then lead to the development of tumors. The skin produces melanin, a natural filter for UV rays, to protect itself from the sun. However, melanin in light-skinned people is just not enough for protection, and other forms of sun protection must be added.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Suncreams_with_chemical_filters\"><\/span><b>Suncreams with chemical filters<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Suncreams contain chemical or organic filters that absorb and dissipate the energy of UV rays.<br \/>\nThe chemical filters approved by US legislation are:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/it.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/INCI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>INCI<\/strong><\/a><\/td>\n<td><strong>Maximum concentrations <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>CAMPHOR BENZALKONIUM METHOSULFATE<\/td>\n<td>6,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>HOMOSALATE<\/td>\n<td>10,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>BENZOPHENONE-3<\/td>\n<td>6,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>PHENYLBENZIMIDAZOLE SULFONIC ACID<\/td>\n<td>8% (acido)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>TEREPHTHALYLIDENE DICAMPHOR SULFONIC ACID<\/td>\n<td>10% (acid)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>BUTYL METHOXYDIBENZOYLMETHANE<\/td>\n<td>5,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>BENZYLIDENE CAMPHOR SULFONIC ACID<\/td>\n<td>6% (acid)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>OCTOCRYLENE<\/td>\n<td>10% (acid)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>POLYACRYLAMIDOMETHYL BENZYLIDENE CAMPHOR<\/td>\n<td>6,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ETHYLHEXYL METHOXYCINNAMATE<\/td>\n<td>10,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>PEG-25 PABA<\/td>\n<td>10,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ISOAMYL P-METHOXYCINNAMATE<\/td>\n<td>10,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ETHYLHEXYL TRIAZONE<\/td>\n<td>5,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>DROMETRIZOLE TRISILOXANE<\/td>\n<td>15,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>DIETHYLHEXYL BUTAMIDO TRIAZONE<\/td>\n<td>10,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4-METHYLBENZYLIDENE CAMPHOR<\/td>\n<td>4,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ETHYLHEXYL SALICYLATE<\/td>\n<td>5,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ETHYLHEXYL DIMETHYL PABA<\/td>\n<td>8,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>BENZOPHENONE-4; BENZOPHENONE-5<\/td>\n<td>5% (acid)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>METHYLENE BIS-BENZOTRIAZOLYL TETRAMETHYLBUTYLPHENOL<\/td>\n<td>10,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>DISODIUM PHENYL DIBENZIMIDAZOLE TETRASULFONATE<\/td>\n<td>10% (acido)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>BIS-ETHYLHEXYLOXYPHENOL METHOXYPHENYL TRIAZINE<\/td>\n<td>10,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>POLYSILICONE-15<\/td>\n<td>10,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>DIETHYLAMINO HYDROXYBENZOYL HEXYL BENZOATE<\/td>\n<td>10,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>TRIS-BIPHENYL TRIAZINE \/ TRIS-BIPHENYL TRIAZINE (NANO)<\/td>\n<td>10,00%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>These chemical substances are capable of intercepting UV rays, absorbing their energy in various ways, and transforming it into thermal or luminous energy.

Further evidence on more complex effects such as mutagenic or carcinogenic activity within cells is pending.<br \/>\nNevertheless, such data is food for thought when it comes to sunscreen use, particularly when used on children or pregnant women. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ewg.org\/sunscreen\/report\/the-trouble-with-sunscreen-chemicals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.ewg.org\/sunscreen\/report\/the-trouble-with-sunscreen-chemicals\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"dermatological_controversies\"><\/span>dermatological controversies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Proven dermatological controversies with sunscreen include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sun protection factor (SPF) is misleading because it refers to a laboratory standard that is not replicable in real life;<\/li>\n<li>The application of sunscreen is uneven in quantity from area to area and rarely covers the entire exposed surface.<\/li>\n<li>Sunscreen increases sweating which further dilutes the cream and decreases protection.<\/li>\n<li>Some chemical filters exhaust their protective properties in well under an hour.

Sunscreens were initially developed for outdoor workers or military personnel in particularly sunny countries. Any part of the body that can be protected with clothing during sun exposure does not require sunscreen because the clothing is the job already. The thought of readily handling chemical filters and substances, and then massaging them onto the skin or that of children is something that would cause most people to, rightly, balk. However, it\u2019s what happens almost daily in hot weather. Many people and their children undress in the sun, slather sunscreen on to areas that should be covered by clothing and sit out in the sun. This suggests a complete loss of common sense and a departure from what sunscreen was originally intended for &#8211; to protect the few areas of the body that cannot readily be covered by clothing.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;583&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Physical_or_inorganic_screens\"><\/span><b> Physical or inorganic screens<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]In cosmetology, physical or inorganic screens are zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. These metal oxides reflect solar rays (scattering action) to protect the cells. They are more stable than chemical filters and provide a broader spectrum of protection that includes all UVB and UVA radiation. They can be found either alone or in combination with organic filters.<br \/>\nTo provide uniform protection, however, these oxides must be incorporated into sunscreens at a high concentration of around 25%, otherwise, they agglomerate and provide only patchy protection. At high concentrations, however, the oxides will color the skin white, which is why these oxides are used as microparticles or nanoparticles. Preventing this unwanted aesthetic in itself poses a problem, as nanoparticles are dangerous to the body as they can be absorbed by cells. While the extent of the damage caused is still to be quantified, metal oxide entering a cell causes some degree of oxidative damage.<br \/>\nCreams with physical or inorganic filters, therefore, still do not meet the safety and efficacy requirements demanded by modern dermatology.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;584&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Light_reflective_powders_a_lesson_from_prehistoric_man\"><\/span><b>Light reflective powders: a lesson from prehistoric man<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Humans have had to deal with sun radiation and skin damage since the beginning of time, and have used clay muds to protect their exposed skin for thousands of years. Once dry, these clay muds leave a compact layer of light reflective minerals that protect the skin. Today, many populations across the world still use clays for protection (clay photoprotection), with studies showing that such clays provide long-lasting, broad-spectrum protection that even reflects parts of infrared rays (IR).[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"From_clay_muds_to_natural_mineral_light-reflective_powders\"><\/span><b>From clay muds to natural, mineral light-reflective powders<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Many clay minerals reflect sunlight, while soothing and calming the skin. These include not only clay (bentonite), but also kaolin, mica, montmorillonite and magnesium silicate. Combining clay with other, powdered minerals results in a natural powder with strong solar reflective power that can protect the skin cells. Once applied to the skin, this powder compacts and stabilizes itself, whilst also absorbing sweat or excess sebum.
