You’ve probably heard the term “zinc oxide” thrown around a lot recently, and it’s for a good reason. Currently, the FDA says that only two sunscreen actives are considered safe and effective: zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. Sunscreens with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide are considered mineral (or physical) sunscreens. Unlike their chemical counterparts that work by absorbing the sun’s harmful rays, these mineral sunscreens protect you from the sun by sitting on top of skin and physically blocking or reflecting harmful rays. Just like chemical sunscreens, you should be wearing a broad spectrum sunscreen of at least SPF 30 every day and reapplying often (every two hours and especially after swimming and sweating) when using a mineral formula.
