How to find the right sunscreen for you

I have become very interested in skincare lately, so I am looking into sunscreens. I am wondering about the difference between mineral and chemical sunscreens and which one would be a better fit for me.

 

I have suffered from sensitive skin since I was young. I had severe acne, and my skin would turn red immediately if I used even slightly irritating products. Because of this, choosing cosmetics has always been difficult.

It was especially the case with sunscreen. I tried it a few times, but it made my skin greasy and felt heavy, so I ended up giving up.

 

I looked it up online and found out about mineral and chemical sunscreens. I heard that mineral sunscreens are less irritating to the skin and offer immediate protection, but I'm concerned about the white cast they leave. I have to wear makeup to work every day, so I'm worried about the product not adhering well to the skin.

On the other hand, I hear that organic sunscreens spread well and don't leave a white cast, making them comfortable to apply. However, I'm worried because I heard that they contain chemical ingredients and could cause skin irritation. Will they really be okay for my sensitive skin?

I've been agonizing over this for days now just trying to choose a sunscreen. Am I being too sensitive?

    아무래도 유기자차가 부드럽고 로션처럼 발려서 저는 유기자차 종류들만 쓰는 편이에요☺️ 피부 자극이 걱정되신다면 유기자차 성분 중에서도 민감성을 위해 순한 제품들이 많아요 ! 저자극 인증받은 제품들도 있구요 제가 써본 것 중에 아누아 어성초 선크림과 구달 어성초 선크림이 민감성 피부도 사용하기 괜찮을 거 같더라구요 🌿

    자외선 차단제에 대한 고민은 다 비슷한거 같아요. 자극족인 성분이 있나봐요.
