    As long as the chemical sunscreen absorbs well on your skin, u can go about your day as usual. No need to wait 20-30mins. It works as soon as you apply it. Some formula might feels heavy on some skin types, that's why you need it to set - this goes for physical sunscreens too.

    Mineral sunscreen (physical) is superior! I just use tinted. The chemical was messing up my skin, but when I switched to mineral it stopped! It also gives me a light coverage for blemishes!

    I have a two year old that suffers from severe eczema and her dermatologist recommended Aveeno, which is a physical sunscreen. I believe the Babyganics chemical sunscreen is what was causing her skin to flare up. So far the new Aveeno has helped. I do not notice much of a white cast.

  • @jjpopesupremacy8762
    @jjpopesupremacy8762 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I know it probably doesn’t make a difference, but if you’re trying to treat hyperpigmentation but are afraid of chemical sunscreens converting uv rays into heat and triggering melanosis, would it be better to opt for mineral sunscreen? But are mineral sunscreens essential if you’re using active ingredients (niacinamide) to treat hyperpigmentation that can counter that effect? I think a lot of POC have a a significant amount of trepidation toward chemical sunscreens because of the idea of heat formulating inside the skin and causing more pigment production

    • @danny9guzz
      @danny9guzz ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Mineral coverts uv rays into heat as well. It’s such a small difference of heat compared to chemical that it doesn’t make a difference.

      ​@@Skynfyx I've heard that because physical sunscreen reflects sunlights, you shouldn't apply anything on top of physical sunscreen (makeup or something), because makeup covers sunscreen and the sunscreen doesn't work, so it should be the last step (it refers only to the physical sunscreen, not chemical of course). Is there any truth in that? I personally always use physical sunscreen and never use makeup because of this.

    There are actually quite a lot of physical sunscreens now that doesn't leave a whitecast (or at least it's so minimal that it's unnoticeable). A physical sunscreen I love is Yadah Oh My SPF 50+PA++++. Doesn't have an oily feel, no whitecast. Perfect for my oily and acne prone skin.

    I definetly do not hate white cast sunscreen! I have really bad erythema and i layer my blush (made of iron and rose) all over the first screen layer and then blend more screen, and that mimics my skintone and stops my spottage from showing! 😄 Basically this is calamine 🫠 Anytime you have zinc and iron together, that's called calamine.
