What should I look for in a sunscreen for sensitive skin? For sensitive skin, dermatologists often recommend mineral sunscreens containing zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide. All Anthelios sunscreens are tested on sensitive skin and formulated for optimal skin tolerance.

What’s the difference between a chemical (organic) and mineral (physical) sunscreen? Mineral sunscreens, like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, sit on the skin and reflect/ scatter UV rays. Chemical sunscreens, containing compounds like octocrylene and avobenzone, absorb UV rays.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of chemical vs. mineral sunscreens? Mineral sunscreens work immediately upon application, but may rub or sweat off easily due to sitting directly on the skin. Chemical sunscreens take at least 15 minutes to absorb properly, providing immediate protection once absorbed.
