Brush on Block Sunscreen

Tags:

Purpose

Applying sunscreen is an important part of skin health and safety. It can also be difficult with FOP! Even applying sunscreen to someone with FOP can be a concern for parents and caregivers who are worried they might cause a soft tissue injury with the pressure from using hands to apply sunscreen! Brush on Block sunscreen is a safe and gentle way to apply sunscreen.

Description

Brush On Block is a type of sunscreen that differs from traditional lotions or sprays. It comes in the form of a mineral powder sunscreen that you apply by brushing it onto your skin using a makeup brush applicator.

Formulation: It uses mineral sunscreen ingredients such as zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, which are considered physical blockers that sit on top of the skin and reflect UV rays.

Application: Instead of a liquid or cream, Brush On Block sunscreen is in powder form. It typically comes in a brush applicator container similar to makeup brushes.

Convenience: The powder form makes it convenient to carry and apply throughout the day without the need for water or rubbing into the skin. This can be particularly useful for reapplying sunscreen over makeup or when you’re outdoors.

Usage: It’s suitable for all skin types and ages, including children and those with sensitive skin conditions like eczema or rosacea.

How to make

You can always use inexpensive makeup brushes to apply or rub in liquid sunscreen. This will be a gentler approach then using hands and will be less messy! Makeup brushes can be purchases in drug stores, grocery stores, and even dollar/discount stores.
