Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

I've only tried one mineral sunscreen and that was full on Coco The Clown 🤡 so I'm very wary of them!

My regular ones have been La Roche Posay, which have really high PA ratings, but are a tad lardy. The Asian ones though are amazing, I've a couple of Skin Aqua ones, my fave (so far) being UV Super moisture Essence

I think that if I'm going to be out and about for long periods the LRP are the ones to use (they feel a bit more 'heavy duty' but that could just be the lard effect). If I'm just nipping out the Asian ones will do the job

Have you had prolonged sun exposure whilst wearing the Skin Aqua and not burned or tanned? I'm still wary of trusting them completely (I've had some horrible sun burns in the past and am really paranoid of the sun)

I haven’t battle tested them yet with something like a beach day yet, I’m just using it for day to day stuff as a preventative measure. I understand what you mean, though, it seems to thin to be trustworthy for sure.

If you do can you drop me a message to let me know how they perform? I'd really appreciate some real life feedback on someone braver than me
