UV absorbers
UV absorbers are a type of cosmetic raw material that absorbs UV rays and prevents them from damaging the skin. UV absorbers are divided into two types: chemical absorbers and physical absorbers. Chemical absorbers achieve the effect of sun protection by absorbing UV rays and converting them into heat. Common chemical absorbers include oxybenzone, hexyltriazine, aminobenzoic acid, etc. They can form a protective film on the surface of the skin, absorb UVB and UVA radiation, and reduce the damage of UV rays to the skin. Physical absorbers achieve the effect of sun protection by reflecting and scattering UV rays. Common physical absorbers include zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. They can form a reflective layer on the surface of the skin to reflect UV rays and reduce the direct damage of UV rays to the skin.
