sunscreen
This term functions as both a product and an action. As a noun, it refers to the physical substance, which is typically treated as an uncountable mass noun when referring to the substance in general, though it can be countable when referring to specific brands or types of products.
When used as a verb, it describes the act of applying the product. This usage is more common in casual or instructional contexts than in formal medical writing, where phrases like "apply sunscreen" are preferred.
