Your Official Sun Care Cheat Sheet

Physical sunscreen is a formula that protects against both UVA and UVB rays with mineral ingredients (hence its second name). These products work by physically blocking the sun, sort of like a shield. The most common mineral sunscreen ingredients are zinc oxide and titanium dioxide and they are known for leaving a very strong white cast. Although recent formulas offer the same protection minus the aforementioned white cast.
