Reverse emulsion physical sunscreen
Chemical sunscreen that seeps into skin and potentially contains harmful ingredients is so last decade. The sun protection of the future is a physical sunscreen that literally sits on top of your skin to create a barrier, which reflects and deflects the sun. Dermagenics Sun Savvy Solar Shield, $45 uses a cutting edge "reverse emulsion process which suspends the zinc oxide and titanium dioxide on the skin’s surface" to provide a 95 percent UVA/UVB protection while remaining water resistant. Being so that it lies on the skin, the ingredients prevent most of the sun’s rays from reaching the skin, rather than absorbing a limited spectrum, like chemical sunscreens do.SEE NEXT PAGE: Ultrasound facelift
