Sunblock = physically blocks UV rays and doesn’t let them penetrate the skin ✨ Sunscreen = allow UV rays to penetrate the skin but transform it into non-damaging wavelengths of light or heat, thru a chemical transformation ✨

I agree with @iJAYi . Sunblock typically is quite thicker with the exception of mineral sunscreens while usually containing titanium oxide as opposed to sunscreen containing oxybenzone or avobenzone. Both are very useful and nowadays there's several options to choose from. I absolutely love using Benton Mineral Sun Stick because it's so convenient

Nowadays, the term sunblock isn't really used anymore as it isn't accurate. No product can truly block the UV rays so most countries have banned the use of the word sunblock and uses the term sunscreen instead.
