Abstract : The efficacy and safety of sunscreens are diminished when their agents permeate the skin, resulting in systemic circulation and unidentified negative effects. The filters in sunscreens muster main on the skin's surface with minimal penetration through the dermis in order to preserve their safety and efficacy. Sunscreen should always be worn, even in the event that filters manage get through. Damage like as erythema, the production of free radicals, aging of the skin, and skin cancer brought on by UV radiation. Research is being done to limit skin penetration, assess sun protection factor (SPF), and improve formulation properties and stability in order to target potential negative effects caused by topical absorption of sunscreens. In vitro or in vivo investigations are used in current assays to determine sunscreen penetration since they mimic the physiological conditions of use. This review objectives are to reexamine data on sunscreen skin penetration over the last ten years and identify variables that may increase skin penetration or boost sunscreen efficacy. Sunburn is caused by ultraviolet B radiation, but ultraviolet A may be more damaging to the skin. Sunscreens should ideally block both wavebands. A sunscreen sun protection factor is mostly determined by how well it blocks ultraviolet B. The efficiency of preventing ultraviolet A is not measured. Sunscreens may be organic or inorganic chemicals. If metal oxide sunscreens are made into nanoparticles, their cosmetic acceptance might increase. It doesn’t seem that absorbing organic sunscreens and nanoparticles has any appreciable systemic effects. Frequent use of sunscreen prevents melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and actinic keratosis from developing.

Keywords : Sunscreen, Sun Protection Factor, Permeation, Sunburn.
