Many lifeguards put it on their noses because it completely blocks the sun but you it is not clear it is white and you can see it because it is not rubbed in.
Does zinc protect you from the sun?
Zinc oxide, when applied topically to the skin, acts as a physical barrier to the sun's harmful UV rays, providing protection from both UVA and UVB rays. It works by reflecting and scattering the light away from the skin, helping to prevent sunburn and reduce the risk of skin damage and skin cancer.
Does sunblock can protect us from the UV rays?
Yes, sunblock can protect us from UV rays by either absorbing, reflecting, or scattering the harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun. It is important to apply sunblock regularly and as directed to effectively shield the skin from damage.

Can you use a galvinized calf feeder as a grill?
Bad idea. The zinc used to galvanize the steel has a low melting point and oxidizes easily. You will quickly burn off the zinc and the zinc oxide will end up in your food and the tank will rust out almost overnight. The up-side is that zinc oxide is a good sunblock so you probably won't get a sunburned tongue.

What is the difference between sunblock and sunscreen?
The main difference between sunblock and sunscreen lies in their active ingredients and how they protect the skin from UV rays. Sunblock contains physical blockers like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide that sit on the skin's surface and reflect UV rays, providing immediate protection. In contrast, sunscreen typically contains chemical filters that absorb UV radiation and convert it into heat, which is then released from the skin. Both types are effective, but sunblock often offers broader-spectrum protection and is less likely to irritate sensitive skin.
