• sunscreen：防曬乳，screen：指任何隔板，屏障
  = sunblock
  = suntan lotion 有助曬功用，三者差別在於SPF(sun-protection factor)
• Sunscreen is something that screen out or block the harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun, in order to protect your skin.
• If you want to get a tan, you might want to put on suntan lotion.
  With a suntan lotion, the emphasis is on getting a tan, some people like to get a tan without getting a sunburn, so they apply suntan lotion on their skin.
• A sunscreen or sunblock usually has a higher SPF.
• [比] tanning lotion 仿曬乳，是一種免曬乳液，有人稱之為美黑乳液，只要擦在皮膚上就會呈現古銅色
  While a suntan lotion is used outdoor to help speed-up the tanning process, tanning lotions are used without the add of the sun, you should use it indoors.
  People don't need to go outdoors to look like they have got a suntan, tanning lotions are safe way to go if you want to look tan but you don't want to risk the dangerous of the sun.
