Two families of filters
- Mineral (physical) — zinc oxide, titanium dioxide; sit on skin and scatter/reflect UV.
- Organic (chemical) — a variety of filters that absorb UV and convert it to heat.
How they tend to feel
- Mineral — can look more matte/opaque; sensitive-friendly for many, sometimes heavier.
- Modern organic — often sheer and flexible; comfort varies by formula quality.
What actually matters daily
The SPF/PA rating and whether you’ll wear enough, every day. Comfort + finish drive consistency.
Choosing for climate
- Hot/humid — look for breathable, non-greasy textures.
- Cold/dry + AC — pair SPF with a comforting moisturizer.
Try a sheer, makeup-friendly finish
