The cosmetic industry is, of course, really trying to solve this problem and the best solution so far is using nanoparticles.

Titanium Dioxide: Also known as a physical or inorganic sunscreen filter and is often recommended for sensitive skin types. All in all, Titanium Dioxide is a famous sunscreen agent and for good reason, it gives broad spectrum UV protection (best at UVB and UVA II), it's highly stable, and it has a good safety profile.

A handy multi-tasking ingredient that gives the skin a nice, soft feel and also boosts the effectiveness of other preservatives.

Silica: A type of powder with a spherical bead shape that provides a silky feel and soft focus effect. The coating helps to stabilize pigments in the formulas and also helps them to spread easily and evenly on the skin. According to the manufacturer info, it is a real multi-tasker, including the ability to prevent pigments settling during storage, stabilizing a formula for longer, creating a light and smooth skin feel and enhancing the water-resistance of sunscreen formulas.ULTRA LIGHT SUNSCREEN FLUID: 100% mineral UV filters in a lightweight, matte finish fluid developed for sensitive skin. It's definitely one of the best UV-filter agents we have today, especially in the US where new-generation Tinosorb filters are not (yet) approved. ORM-D classified products such as aerosol sprays, nail polish, perfume and products with high alcohol content may only be shipped using a ground method within the Continental US.

It’s safe and gentle, but even more importantly, it’s not a feared-by-everyone-mostly-without-scientific-reason paraben.The English translation is, so far it looks like sunscreens with nanoparticles do stay on the surface of the skin where they should be.

This zinc oxide sunscreen, also with titanium dioxide, is formulated with Cell-Ox Shield® technology: broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection with antioxidants. Since I had my daughter a year ago, finding the best baby sunscreen has been a personal project as skin cancer runs in our family. I use bare minerals complexion rescue tinted moisturizer on top (after blending in the white cast, but before the sunscreen is completely dry). La Roche-Posay Anthelios Mineral Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid SPF 50 is a 100% mineral sunscreen for sensitive skin that features a non-whitening, fast-absorbing texture and leaves a matte finish on skin.I would not recommend unless you are looking for good coverage and you don't care that the white remains. Other than having a good safety profile and being quite gentle to the skin it has some other advantages too.
