Sunlight is the most important natural source of energy for all living creatures. Sunlight stimulates hormone production, allows synthesis of vitamin D, promotes skin cell regeneration and contributes to an overall sense of well being of an individual. Sunscreens are agents that alter the effects of UV radiation on the skin by absorption or reflection of part of the incident radiation. It protects the skin from carcinogenic effects of burning rays.
