        abstract = {The use of sunscreen by the public, especially in Indonesia is quite popular. Health and
beauty reasons underlying the popularity of the use of sunscreen products. This further
fueled by increasing public awareness on the dangers of UV radiation of sunlight that the
intensity at last decade more higher. It has been widely demonstrated that UV radiation of
sunlight can cause sunburn (tanning effect to the skin), premature aging such as the
appearance of dark spots and wrinkled skin, melanoma and non-melanoma skin, and
cancer. Among the active particles are often used in sunscreen products as UV radiation
filters are particles of TiO2 and ZnO based nano size. Along with the development of
nanotechnologies, sunscreen products are also diversified, often combined with
cosmetics. This paper aims to disseminate to the public, especially in Indonesia about
how the characteristics of nanoparticles TiO2 and ZnO in sunscreens, the effectiveness of
the particle as a barrier to UV radiation, and the dangers that can be caused by excessive
use of the product.},
