[QUOTE="ken2116, post: 1133286, member: 94707"] Here a link to the AK version: [URL]https://www.isdin.com/en/product/eryfotona/ak-nmsc-spf-100-fluid-eng[/URL] Its ingredients don't list silicone dioxide or titanium dioxide (verify for yourself), which is what the mineral type of sunscreens use, so it's most likely the chemical type. That can be okay, though in the US some chemical types contain ingredients banned in Europe due to safety concerns (do you prefer to get your cancer from the sun or from your sunscreen...?) A quick search shows Eryfotona also makes the mineral type of sunscreen (the term is on the label and SiO2 is listed as in ingredient), you wouldn't want to layer the two types together though it would be okay to apply one or the other on separate days. Also, because the mineral type physically block the sun's rays it will be affective as long as it remains on your skin, but the mineral type degrades the function of the chemical type. [/QUOTE]
