Abstract: : Sunscreens are vital skincare items used to shield the skin from ultraviolet (UV) radiation's damaging effects. They are essential in avoiding skin cancer, sunburn, and early ageing. According to their active components and mode of action, sunscreens are often divided into two categories: chemical (organic) and physical (mineral). The creation of broad-spectrum, photos table, and aesthetically pleasing sunscreens has been made possible by advancements in formulation technology. Their effectiveness and safety are guaranteed by evaluation techniques including SPF, PPD, and photo stability testing. To guarantee product quality, regulatory agencies such as the FDA, EU, and CDSCO offer stringent criteria. Research on sustainable and customized sunscreen solutions has been fuelled by growing consumer awareness, environmental concerns, and desire in herbal and reef-safe substitutes.
