What about MICRONIZED mineral makeup? Will that also be incompatible? You said non-micronized mineral makeup is incompatible with avobenzone sunscreens. What about MICRONIZED mineral makeup?

Plus at the moment, most of the information are controlled/released mostly by L'oreal. I think the best approach is to write to the company to check. I haven’t come across anything unsafe about them.

I noticed in an earlier comment you mentioned not having heard anything unsafe about mexoryl sunscreens and mineral makeup. Why is it more safe? Do you know where I could find more information?

I am so glad I ran into this article even though I wish it was a lot sooner. Until now I have been using the combination of Neutrogena Dry Touch Sunscreen w/ Helioplex which contains avobenzone along with my Joppa minerals makeup which contains non-micronized titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. No wonder I have not seen much effect with this sunscreen! It makes me sad that I've been using this combination for years! It's time to switch up~ Thanks for such great information! This is my new favorite blog =) <font color="#990033"><strong>Stefani</strong>: You're welcome! Come back often! :)</font> Wow!
