Do You prefer Physical or Chemical Sunscreen?

I think physical sunscreen is usually have lesser risk. Chemical sunscreen sometimes sting my eyes or break me out. But i think the biggest problem for physical sunscreen is the whitecast 😅😅 . What do you think? And whats your HG sunscreen?

Physical sunscreen for me. I also have the same experience with chemicals stinging my eyes and breaking me out. As for the white cast problem, I usually apply it on a half-absorbed moisturizer or toner and blend it so the white cast is not that noticeable. This is what I use now, but I cannot say it as my HG tho:

It does its job properly. It also helps me to fade PIH (it contains Niacinamide) and makes my skin texture smoother. It is quite greasy for its finish is dewy, but for now, I'm okay with that.

I used to prefer a physical sunscreen but not anymore. I've realized the best sunscreen is one which I'll keep using!
