Mineral sunscreen does not protect against “all angles of the UV rays”. All broad spectrum sunscreens are broad spectrum. That is what the definition of broad spectrum is.

i have an oily/combination & acne prone skin. Some says mineral/physical sunscreen are the best for that type of skin. the thing is i am male & of course i dont wear makeup (i have alergic to makeup product) & mineral sunscreen has that matte finished white cast. So do i need to apply & reapply sunscreen with '2 finger' amount???

Hi just to make sure .. btw i have acne prone skin, so i can skip my moisturizer if i feel that is what my skin cause acne? my sunscreen is hydrating enough and when i apply the moisturizer, my skin feel like more oily.. should i stop wearing it? . My daily skincare is anua toner which is so hydrating and soothing, then snail mucin essence which is also good for hydrating and then aqua sunplay, it is alsp hydrating. So should i still wear the moisturizer or stop it?

"mineral sunscreens protect all angles of the UV rays." Where did you even get this information from? I found basically no scientific study about this.
