Sunscreen cream for rosacea
I've just started trying a natural sunscreen cream for the first time and am having a lot of luck with it. The product I'm using has zinc oxide as its active ingredient. It makes up 25% of the product and gives SPF 32 coverage.
It works just as well as the "chemical" based sunscreen cream I've been using until now that has SPF 50. That said, the zinc oxide product isn't slimy and stays in place instead of turning into goo that burns my eyes when I sweat.
I just thought I'd share that because I find it difficult to understand the ingredients in sunscreens, and it's very hard to know what is and is not safe for rosacea-prone skin.
Has anyone else tried products based on zinc oxide with success or is it just me?
