i am currently using bioderma max fluid, mineral , and sensitive sunscreen alternatively. i work outside , so i typically apply sunscreen four times during the day. (8.30, 11.30, 14:30, 17:00)
i understand how the uv rays can damage my skin, however, i am still concerned potential adverse effects from all the chemicals in the sunscreen.
why don't you use a pure zinc oxide or physical sunscreen instead? except the texture might be intolerable, but people like me need to apply so much amount of these chemicals on my face everyday, .....
can someone give me some advices?
for the bioderma i am using, i see there'r some silicon type ingredients , however, when i apply the sunscreen, i don't quite feel any film sitting on top of my face, unlike some other products i used before, and i do feel the suncreen is absorbed..
chemical sunscreens are supposed to be formulated so that the ingredients should not be absorbed , am i correct?
