WHY IS MINERAL SUNSCREEN BETTER FOR ACNE AND SKIN CONDITIONS?

Sunscreen is an essential skincare product that protects the skin from harmful UV rays, which can lead to premature aging, sunburns, and skin damage. However, many people who suffer from acne are hesitant to use sunscreen because they fear that it will clog their pores and aggravate their skin condition. The good news is that PURU 100% natural sunscreen is a game-changer for those with acne-prone skin. In this article, we will explore why PURU sunscreen is a better option than chemical sunscreen for those with acne.

Firstly, let’s understand what causes acne. Acne occurs when the hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. This clogging leads to the formation of pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. Sunscreen can exacerbate this condition because some chemical sunscreens contain ingredients that are comedogenic, meaning they have the potential to clog pores and cause acne breakouts.

PURU 100% natural sunscreen, on the other hand, is a mineral sunscreen that uses non-nanometric particles that do not penetrate the skin barrier. The active ingredient in PURU sunscreen is Zinc Oxide, a natural mineral that sits on top of the skin and reflects the UV rays away from the skin. Zinc Oxide is known for its more anti-inflammatory properties, making it an excellent option for those with acne-prone skin. Unlike chemical sunscreens that can cause irritation, Zinc Oxide is more gentle to the skin, making it an ideal option for those with sensitive skin.

Moreover, PURU sunscreen is non-toxic and does NOT contain harmful chemicals such as oxybenzone, avobenzone, and octinoxate, which are commonly found in chemical sunscreens. These chemicals have been known to cause skin irritation, allergies, and hormonal disruptions. They have also been linked to damaging coral reefs and other marine life. PURU sunscreen is made with natural and organic ingredients that are safe for the skin and the environment.

Another ingredient in PURU sunscreen is organic and non-GMO coconut oil. While coconut oil has an average comedogenic index, it is not the main ingredient in PURU sunscreen. Coconut oil is an excellent emollient that helps the skin retain moisture, which is vital for healthy skin. It also contains lauric acid, which has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce acne breakouts. The coconut oil used in PURU sunscreen is organic and non-GMO, meaning it is free from harmful pesticides and chemicals that can cause skin irritation.

One of the best things about PURU sunscreen is that it is easy to apply and does not leave a white cast on the skin. Mineral sunscreens, in general, tend to be thicker and harder to apply than chemical sunscreens. However, PURU sunscreen has a silky-smooth texture that blends seamlessly into the skin without leaving an overly greasy residue. It is also water-resistant for up to 45 minutes, making it perfect for outdoor activities.

PURU 100% natural sunscreen is a better option than chemical sunscreen for those with acne-prone skin. Its mineral active ingredient, Zinc Oxide, is non-comedogenic and has more anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce acne breakouts. PURU sunscreen is also non-toxic, free from harmful chemicals, and safe for the environment. The addition of organic and non-GMO coconut oil helps the skin retain moisture and can also help reduce acne breakouts. Its silky-smooth texture makes it easy to apply and does not leave a white cast on the skin. By using PURU sunscreen, you can protect your skin from harmful UV rays while also taking care of your skin’s health.
