Hi,
We understand that you would like to know if sunscreen contains chemicals. As Dr Spada explained in this video, chemical is a type of UV filter that provides protection for our skin. The difference between this and the physical filter is the way our skin is protected- the chemical filter absorbs the UV radiation and dissipate that energy, while the physical filter reflects the light back.
Please read this article to learn more about how sunscreen works.
Before you choose which sunscreen to use, take your skin type into consideration as some may react to sunscreen ingredients.
That’s why we put a lot of thought into the formula of our sunscreen. For example, our SunSense Sensitive Visible Screen 50+ contains a broad spectrum of SPF without the use of chemical absorbers and known sensitisers.
We hope this answers your inquiry. Read more about sunscreen via this link or contact our friendly Customer Service Team on 1800 033 706 / customerservice@egopharm.com to chat about your skin.
Kind regards,
Ego Pharmaceuticals”
