Chemical sunscreens
🌿e.g. Avobenzone, Octinoxate
🌿Work by absorbing UV radiation
🌿Older chemical filters may be less stable than physical sunscreens, although the newer chemical filters are stable
🌿Often offer more UVA protection than physical sunscreens
Physical Sunscreens
🌿i.e. Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide
🌿Work by absorbing UV radiation but also can reflect and disperse some UV radiation
🌿May be better suited to people with very sensitive skin or contact allergies.
Which do you prefer? Chemical or Physical? Or maybe a combination of the two?
I’m in love with new chemical sunscreens due to their stability. I find that in skincare routines that are complex with the use of acids or other natural ingredients. The substances can react to reduce and oxide when mixed with other active ingredients in physical sunscreen. Your routine and skin type determines the best suited sunscreen. Keep this in mind when choosing. Also for clients suffering from hyperpigmentation chemical sunscreens in coordination with other active ingredients can help reduce acne scars. The best sunscreen for dark skin is a mineral sunscreen that is made with ingredients of natural origin like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. A zinc sunscreen for dark skin is ideal and the ingredients in it won't irritate your skin. If you have melasma, the best sunscreen is one formulated with physical (a.k.a. mineral) sunscreen active ingredients (Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide) and not chemical sunscreen ingredients (Avobenzone, Homosalate, Octisalate, Octocrylene, Oxybenzone, and Octinoxate).

I am deeply appreciative of the support and love shown at local event or markets. However, we are taking a short break to get everything to a certain standard. This break is only for markets and our online store will be open for orders or deliveries. Please inquire if any issues occur. Instagram posting should resume shortly. Thanks 😊
