Many dermatologist recommends episoft sunscreen. Lately many articles come up mentioning ingredients such as ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, benzophenone-3 (oxybenzone) are harmful to skin which is a hormone disrupter. Episoft sunscreen has those ingredients. Is it really safe to use?

Dear lybrate-user ji any chemical/ pharma products are given with a specific purpose and with a specific duration. Even though it is a sunscreen and its efficacy is up to 3-4 hours depending upon the exposure. It actually protects you with uvb rays and not uva rays. It is generally combined with some other constituents to give a long-lasting effect. Natural anti-tan is aloe vera gel, turmeric, and also moringa serum. Moringa serum not only protects you from uvb rays but also is rich in other skin-friendly vitamins like vit e and also has vit a and c as well. It is antibacterial, antifungal, and also antiprotozoal by character. We have seen very good effects when it is combined with saffron extracts and it works better for acne and hyperpigmentation of the skin. Should you need to know more, you can contact me and I can give you more info on the same after a consultation. Have a nice day!
