Features
Sun allergies are a reaction to sun exposure in combination with the active ingredients of conventional sun protection products. These use two types of active ingredient:
1. types of absorbent active ingredients: These are organic-chemical UV absorbers whose molecules absorb the sun's UV rays. They include octinoxate, for example.
2. reflective types of active ingredients: These are mineral filters that reflect sunlight - like a series of tiny mirrors. Titanium dioxide is an example of this.

Features
Medically, sunburn is a 1st or 2nd degree skin burn.
Sunburn is - as the name suggests - triggered by sunlight, more specifically by ultraviolet, namely UVB and UVC radiation. When UVB or UVC rays hit human skin, they stimulate it to produce radicals. These radicals, in turn, are the direct cause of sunburn.

Features
Trichoptilosis - commonly known as split ends - is a splintering of the hair at the ends. The ends of the hair are slightly brittle and appear dull. This rarely occurs in shorter hair, as short hair is exposed to less friction from movement (for example on the shoulders) and is often cut more frequently to maintain hair length. Split ends are a cosmetic problem as they make the hair look less smooth and organized.
