Mindsip insights from this episode:
Beware of chemical ingredients in mineral sunscreens
Some sunscreens marketed as mineral-based, like a popular EltaMD product, can also contain chemical ingredients flagged by the FDA for further study.
Advocate for Bemotrizinol as a safer chemical sunscreen option
A chemical sunscreen ingredient called Bemotrizinol offers excellent protection without being absorbed through the skin, but it is not yet approved in the USA.
Choose Adapalene for effective and gentle anti-aging treatment
A 2018 head-to-head trial showed the retinoid Adapalene was as effective as Tretinoin for aging skin but was less irritating.
Discover innovative Korean sunscreens with advanced ingredients
Popular Korean sunscreen brands, like Beauty of Joseon, often use newer chemical ingredients like Bemotrizinol that are not yet available in the US.
Incorporate ceramides and nicotinamide for youthful skin
Moisturizers with ceramides and nicotinamide (Vitamin B3) are clinically recommended to reduce wrinkles and improve skin texture.
Avoid 12 sunscreen ingredients flagged by FDA for safety concerns
Out of an abundance of caution, it's better to stay away from the 12 sunscreen ingredients that the FDA has requested more safety data on.
Use sunscreen daily to reverse skin aging
A 2016 follow-up study showed that using sunscreen daily not only stopped the signs of skin aging but could even reverse them.
Switch sunscreens based on activity for optimal protection
It can be practical to use a safer mineral sunscreen for daily use but switch to a more robust chemical sunscreen for swimming to ensure protection.
