Invisible Zinc Environmental Skin Protector Review

[ThePurpleSattin]

Can this sunscreen clog my pores? I have oily skin

[fallenangel7431]

@ThePurpleSattin it does not clog my pores and I have easily clogged skin.

I really enjoyed your review. Great info for everyone to understand the differences between the chemical and physical sunscreen.

however there's no excuse to not wear sunscreen even in winter when there's no sun. The UV rays can still penetrate through and do damage on our skin. So please please wear sunscreen every single day no matter what the weather is.

ps. the ESP is my new HG product :)

[toniisisethen]

do you need to reapply this every 2 hours?

[fallenangel7431]

@toniisisethen in theory it should probably be reapplied every several hours yes, (I'd say 3 or so) but I don't. I'd reapply if I was out in the sun, but just to and from work I don't.

Great review Danielle! You are my suncare guru! You know a lot more than most people! I totally agree about chemical sunscreens, there's been a lot of literature out lately about the effects...I'm keen to stick to physical sunscreens where possible now.

I don't wear sunscreen anywhere near as much as you, but I had to catch the train into the city the other day - I applied my sunscreen liberally, and I felt totally smug!! hahaha. Now just need to do it more often :)

@Schmeggyroo thanks! haha I'm a sun protection nerd, but that's ok :) Sometimes I'm bad though in winter I was a bit slack but I felt like there was NO SUN so why bother?

[Schmeggyroo]

@fallenangel7431 That's the best sort of nerd to be! Yeah I'm bad in winter too...ssh! You're right, sometimes there's no point with no sun :)

Im going to check at work if our sunscreens work on a chemical basis....thats scary

[fallenangel7431]

@itsrudegirl I'd love to know if Clinique sells phyiscal sunscreens!

[sonyafby]

oh you explained the difference between chemical and physical sunscreens so much better than me.

i have that product as well. it's great.

[fallenangel7431]

@sonyafby I'm glad you could understand what I was saying. It seems a bit convoluted
