Sensitive skin? Here are the top 5 sunscreen ingredients dermatologists recommend avoiding

Choosing the best sunscreen for your face is always risky and overwhelming if you have sensitive skin. Going for dermatologically checked and recommended sunscreen is always the best.

The choice of the components and the blend is what affects it. Learn about the ingredients to avoid when choosing your sunscreen for the best!

 

Know what to avoid. Be safe!

Multiple products pose more damage to sensitive skin than others. The chemically derived components are more harmful than natural ones. Know what to avoid when picking sunscreen and ensure you are safe from skin and sun damage!

 

Oxybenzone

It is among the most widely used components of chemical sunscreens. It shields the skin from the sun’s damaging UVA and UVB radiation. Lotus Herbals avoids using it and makes mineral-based sunscreens using titanium oxides, which are permitted dermatologically for sensitive skin. It serves a similar purpose without damage. Being a natural and safe mineral, titanium in Lotus Herbals Safe Sun UV Protect Body Lotion, offers the best shield.

 

Avobenzone

Avobenzone blocks the sun’s rays but often is an unstable compound in chemical sunscreens. It is less resistant to high temperatures and needs a stabilizer. It can initiate an allergic reaction on sensitive skin. As an alternative, Lotus Herbals uses zinc oxide, which is more stable and safer for application on sensitive skin.

Homosalate

Homosalate, an SPF-offering ingredient in sunscreen, can irritate or trigger an allergic reaction in people with sensitive skin.

The Lotus Herbals SafeSun Matte Gel is a gel-based sunscreen for oily skin that uses the richness of horse chestnut, vanilla, and comfrey as a natural SPF to block harmful effects.

 

Retinyl Palmitate

Using Safe Sun Vitamin-C MatteGEL Daily Sunscreen having Kakadu plant exacts gives you a natural dose of antioxidants. Replace chemicals with nature to have the best for your sensitive skin.

 

Methanol or acetone

This cooling component in sunscreen often gives relaxation but can be tough on sensitive skin. It is the leading cause of itchy, dry, and irritated skin. Instead, natural coolants, including aloe vera extracts, can soothe the skin and offer a cooling effect without agitating the skin. Lotus Herbals incorporates the power of papaya for de-tan and aloe for cooling in Safe Sun DeTan After Sun Cooling Matte Gel for the best!
