Our Skin Care Clinic Team Highlight EltaMD Sunscreen
EltaMD sunscreen is a physician supported sunscreen containing high percentages of transparent zinc oxide to protect your skin from both UVA and UVB radiation. Zinc oxide is a natural mineral compound that blocks the widest range of UVA and UVB rays and is a physical sunscreen ingredient. This leads to a very important question, why is a physical sunscreen better than a chemical sunscreen? Chemical sunscreen absorbs UV radiation in the skin, dissipating it as heat, sometimes making your skin feel hotter in the sun. Physical sunscreen reflects and scatters UV rays to filter out UV radiation so it essentially bounces off of the skin. Physical sunscreen ingredients are also more stable than chemical sunscreen ingredients.
The best choice for broad spectrum, medical grade, physical sunscreen is EltaMD. It has earned the Skin Cancer Foundation Seal of recommendation. EltaMD is non-comedogenic, sensitivity-free, paraben-free and fragrance-free. It is a versatile line of sun care products created to be customized to your skin type and activities.
