Natural Beauty Inside Out
Here’s sharing four interesting articles I’ve read over the past two weeks regarding sunscreens.

I bought the Heliocare Oral recently because I thought it might be a good idea to get extra protection from the oppressive sun rays these days. Since I only apply my sunscreen in the morning and can’t apply another layer of sunscreen in the middle of the day, these oral capsules offer me peace of mind when I have to walk under the hot sun without any form of shading.
My quest for the perfect mineral sunscreen is over since I found Marie-Veronique Organics Creme de Soleil with SPF30+ which offer complete UVB/UVA spectrum protection. This has got to be the best sunscreen in terms of ingredients and texture I’ve used so far and I’m totally in love with it. It is also rated as one of the safest sunscreens on the list of Environmental Working Group.
If you come back often enough, then you may have noticed my preference for physical sunscreens over chemical ones. However, this doesn’t mean that physical sunscreens are definitely more superior or that all chemical sunscreens are lousy.
Chemical vs physical sunscreen
By now, I believe most of you are already fairly familiar with the difference between chemical and physical sunscreens. For those who don’t, chemical sunscreens contain synthetic chemical substances to absorb UV radiation while physical sunscreens contain inert mineral particles specifically zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide to reflect UV rays like a mirror. However, I’ve also mentioned that physical sunscreens may actually reflect and absorb UV rays in my entry mineral-based sunscreens are the best.
