However, I am a profuse sweater and when I have tried chemical free sunscreens (zinc and titanium based) they instantly run off my face and head and into my eyes. Is there such a thing as a sunscreen that is both free of harmful chemicals and sweat-resistant? Answer It's true some ingredients in sunscreens can induce ROS, but based on the information I have read, this does not include all chemical sunscreen ingredients. To avoid such reactions I recommend you consider a sunscreen that is free of these ingredients but that also includes antioxidants. Antioxidants fight off free radical damage that can be done to the cells, especially in cases where ROS are generated. Consider the following sunscreens, Jan Marini Antioxidant Daily Face Protectant - Tube SPF 30, Dermalogica Solar Defense Wipes SPF 15 and Peter Thomas Roth Continuous Sunscreen Mist SPF 30. Best skin care wishes.
