Mineral sun screens are considered natural and healthier but may not be quite as effective as chemical products. Each one of us has to choose for ourselves.
The main chemical ingredients to avoid seem to be oxybenzone, octinoxate, and retinyl palmitate.
I buy mine from my skin cancer doctor who has educated me pretty well.
I do not sun myself often or for long and use a mineral product generously and reapply after 3-4 hours if I am staying out that long.
The sun is so healthy for us in so many ways so don't avoid it just learn what works best for you. Even just 20 minutes a day gives us all the Vitamin D we need that day. But you'll get Vitamin C if you longer a little longer 🙂
Happy days in the sun to you
