Gisun Sunscreen Lotion

Here, are some pointers to know about our product Gisun Sunscreen Lotion.
Benefits

• Broad‑spectrum UV protection
• Avobenzone provides UVA protection.
• Octyl Methoxycinnamate (also called octinoxate) provides UVB protection.
• Oxybenzone is another chemical filter that absorbs UVA/UVB.
• Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide are mineral (physical) filters that reflect/absorb UV rays and are considered safe, especially zinc oxide.
• Helps prevent sunburn, long‑term sun damage (wrinkles, pigmentation, premature ageing), and by extension reduces risk of UV‑related skin cancers.
• The base ingredients (e.g. glycerin, propylene glycol, soft paraffins, cetyl/cetostearyl alcohol, stearic acid) help with texture, skin feel, occlusion/hydration, and making the formulation pleasant to apply (so you’re more likely to use it consistently).
• Having both chemical and mineral filters gives a combination approach which may improve coverage of different UV‑wavebands and allow for possibly better protection or complementarity.

Possible Side‑Effects

• Local skin reactions: Some users may experience irritation, redness, itching, burning, or rash at the site of application. For example, Oxybenzone is associated with a higher rate of allergic contact dermatitis.
• Allergic or photo‑allergic reactions
• Avobenzone has been reported to cause photocontact dermatitis (skin reaction triggered by sun exposure) in some cases.
• Oxybenzone may lead to sensitisation in some individuals.
• Stability issues: Some chemical filters (like avobenzone) degrade in sunlight unless properly stabilized, which can reduce efficacy and possibly create reactive by‑products.
• Environmental/eco‑concerns: Some chemical filters (like oxybenzone and octyl methoxycinnamate) have been implicated in coral reef damage, aquatic ecosystem effects.
• Potential systemic absorption: Studies show that many chemical UV filters can be absorbed through the skin and enter the bloodstream. While no confirmed harm has been established at typical usage, regulatory bodies call for more data.
• For very sensitive skin or broken/inflamed skin, use may increase the risk of irritation or sensitisation due to the many chemical and surfactant/excipient ingredients (perfume, preservatives like phenoxyethanol, etc.).
• If misused (e.g., too little amount applied, not reapplied when required, or applied on wet skin then wiped off), protection may be inadequate.
