ABSTRACT: Suncream prevents ultraviolet light from harming the skin, and it has been super competitive in recent years. Traditional sunscreens were not environmentally friendly, especially for marine animals. In contrast, suncream made from lignin is natural, which is highly connected with “environmental protection”, sometimes, suncream may not be smooth enough for the skin. In this study, a functional suncream with robust UV absorption and environmental friendliness was achieved by regulating the quantity of lignin, which has an important prospect and market in cosmetics.
