With modern production, nano-scale or fine-grade titanium dioxide can be easily produced for cosmetics. In sunscreen, titanium dioxide absorbs UV light. Our skin is not able to absorb Titanium dioxide, even nanoparticles.

This is one of the worst mineral sunscreens I have ever used. It’s so hard to rub it into your skin- you have to work small sections to get it to spread out evenly. If you use one full pump at once, then the product lumps up weird on your skin. Not the perfect sunscreen at all. I know it can be hard to formulate a mineral sunscreen without silicones, but this is by far one of the worse I’ve tried.
