: What’s the Deal with Mineral vs. Chemical Sunscreens? ☀️

“The best sunscreen is the one you’ll use consistently and correctly!” But if you’re wondering which to choose, here’s the breakdown:

Mineral Sunscreens:
- Sits on top of skin and reflects UV rays
- Ideal for sensitive, acne-prone, or rosacea-prone skin
- Starts working immediately
- Newer formulas have minimal white cast!

Chemical Sunscreens:
- Absorb UV rays and convert to heat
- Lightweight and sheer
- May irritate sensitive skin or eyes

Shop dermatologist-recommended sunscreens on our site: https://apdermshop.com/collections/sunscreens

✅ SPF 30+
✅ Reapply every 2 hours
✅ Use enough (nickel-sized for face!)
