Here is just one of the many videos I could find describing the difference between physical and chemical sunscreens. In short, both, to an extent the physical kind included, absorb and transform it into heat. Consumers can get chemical kinds that don't leave a white cast, offer varying levels of protection, dry fairly quickly, and are easy to apply under makeup if that's a concern. I know because I've used a couple brands with these things in mind and have loved them for years.
