Those movies that have lifeguards sitting in the sun with white spots over their noses aren't far off. According to Health, sunblock doesn't require a ton of rubbing in because it won't go away completely. Because it physically shields your skin, you simply slather the white lotion on and let it do its job. On the other hand, you have to rub sunscreen into your skin so it can properly absorb the sun's rays and protect your body.
VeryWell Health explains that some brands have formulated thinner sunblocks that spread more easily but still maintain the same chemical make up. Because these lotions can only somewhat rub in, many people opt for the classic sunscreen. However, the outlet suggests, if you're allergic to ingredients in either option, using the other will help you stay protected from the sun. Health reports that people with sensitive skin are better suited to using sunblock because sunscreen often contains more chemicals.
Many dermatologists suggest using sunblock on your body to fully protect your skin since it can effectively keep your cells safe. But, if you prefer sunscreen and it keeps you from getting red, load up the 35 SPF.
