In the case of a mineral based sunscreen, opt for one that doesn’t just block out UV rays, but is also biocompatible, meaning it does not harm the environment. Be ingredient aware, as some ingredients like titanium dioxide may have emerging concerns. Use the appropriate sunscreen for your activities, for example use types that are water-resistant for swimming or any sports, and types that are suitable for the oceans/water bodies.
