Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a sunscreen non-toxic?
A non-toxic sunscreen is made without ingredients that are harmful to your health or the environment. This usually means it’s free from chemical filters like oxybenzone and octinoxate, and instead uses mineral filters like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide.
Does non-toxic sunscreen work as well as regular sunscreen?
Absolutely. When formulated correctly, non-toxic sunscreens offer strong broad-spectrum protection. Look for products labeled with SPF 30 or higher and that meet broad-spectrum standards.
How often should I reapply throughout the day?
For maximum protection, reapply every two hours, and 40 minutes if you’ve been sweating or swimming. Additionally, reapply immediately after towel drying.
Should I use sunscreen even on cloudy days?
Yes, it’s important to note that UV rays can penetrate through clouds, with up to 80% of UV rays reaching the Earth’s surface on cloudy days. Therefore, it’s essential to use it even when it’s overcast.
Why should I switch to non-toxic sunscreen?
People choose non-toxic sunscreen to avoid ingredients linked to hormone disruption, skin irritation, or environmental harm. It’s a safer option for sensitive skin, children, and eco-conscious users.
Can I use non-toxic sunscreen on oily or acne-prone skin?
Yes! Many non-toxic formulas are non-comedogenic and designed to be lightweight, making them suitable for oily or breakout-prone skin. Look for mattifying or gel-based options if you prefer a shine-free finish.
Are there any downsides to using non-toxic sunscreen?
Some people find mineral sunscreens take longer to rub in or feel slightly thicker on the skin. However, newer formulas have significantly improved in texture and blendability without compromising safety.
