    A similar effect is observed when mineral (zinc oxide) sunscreen, which reflects UV rather than absorbing it, is applied to paper. This is because the blue light you're seeing off the paper isn't the UV reflecting, it's fluorescence from the dye in the paper. Despite having opposite mechanisms of UV protection, both types of sunscreen look the same when applied side by side on paper or skin (which is also slightly fluorescent).

      No. On skin, those holes will not be there nearly as much due to lipophilic nature of skin compared to paper. Getting burned after putting on sunscreen is the result of sweating it off or perhaps going in the water, not from the tiny holes. You don't get burned then look like freddy kreuger.

    • @Aethernets
      @Aethernets Před 2 lety +4

      I think that has to do more with the application than the penetrative power of the basic UV light, see how one of the eyes is completely black, just apply a decent sunscreen evenly and reapply depending on what you're doing and you'll be good.

    • @lisastenzel5713
      @lisastenzel5713 Před 2 lety

      It's how you apply sun screen. No one here would believe the amount of sun screen per inch of skin you need to make the sun screen work 100%. Plus, it washes off with sweat and rubbing from your clothes and towel etc etc.. AND it does need to get inside your skin, which takes time and it does not stay in your skin forever! Every 3-4 hours you just need to get another layer. Your body kills that chemical over time.

    And this is why you should use sunblock instead of sunscreen. Some people don’t know this, but the two are not one and the same.
    Sunscreen helps your body absorb the UV light, distributing around it into the skin, whereas Sunblock reflects the UV light away from your skin. I’m sure if he used Block instead of Screen, we would get a completely different show :)

    • @dtrns9
      @dtrns9 Před 2 lety +1

      Sunscreen doesn’t forward UV into your skin cells with zero filtration as you seem to imply. If it did, then there would be no point in applying sunscreen.
      The chemicals in sunscreen convert absorbed UV radiation into heat energy as they decompose. Because the chemicals decompose fast, you have to reapply sunscreen every 30 minutes or so.
      Compared to raw exposure to UV radiation, sunscreen does its job pretty well. It absorbs UV radiation before that UV radiation can reach your skin cells and it converts that UV radiation that it absorbed to heat energy which gets radiated away naturally, and when you go to shower.

    I think it absorbs the UV radiation but doesn't reradiate the energy like paper. This is a process called fluorescence and that's what is happening with the paper. The paper absorbs the UV radiation and emits blue light, sunscreen on the other hand probably dissipates the energy differently.
