Sensitive Skin: Hyaluronic Acid Sunscreen VS Regular Sunscreen
Sensitive skin as the name suggests reactions to anything and everything. Fragrances, alcohol and certain chemical UV filters like oxybenzone, octinoxate, octocrylene, and PABA (para-aminobenzoic acid) are no-no’s☠️.
Regular sunscreens have those nasties mentioned above which strip skin of moisture which in turn causes reactions (aka, skin drama). Even more, regular sunscreens leave you feeling heavy and greasy.
So then what’s so special about Hyaluronic Acid Sunscreens? Well, the ingredient is a powerful humectant which means it's a moisture magnet. It literally attracts moisture to the skin keeping it hydrated and plump. Additionally, it also:
Prevents Dryness & Irritation from sun exposure
Maintain’s Skins Moisture Balance without clogging pores
Soothes sensitivity while protecting against UV damage
What makes it complicated is, many companies will mix Hyaluronic acid with reactants too creating a very deadly reactive time bomb in a bottle labeled as sunscreen.
Which begs the question, which sunscreen to buy?
