#1Zinc Oxide
![Good for oily skin](https://skinsignal.com/api/web/image/layout/oily_good.png?w=30&q=50)
Zinc Oxide is a great physical sunscreen, meaning it deflects the UV rays. It’s the only natural mineral sun protector recommended by the FDA for babies. It’s good for sensitive skin because it’s less irritating than chemical sunscreens.
It has very nice spectrum protection. It helps to protect from UVA I, UVA II, and UVB and nowadays it’s the broadest range of sunscreen used in cosmetics. In other words, it’s brilliant in its league.
The negative side is that it can feel heavy on the skin. It can leave a slight whitish tint on the surface of the skin and some people may not like this. Keep in mind that it’s relatively easy to wash off, so it’s better to use water-resistant sunscreens if you are swimming.
#2Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C)
![Good for dry skin](https://skinsignal.com/api/web/image/layout/dry_good.png?w=30&q=50)
Vitamin C is known for its strong antioxidant activity. It helps to slow down aging processes. The other positive effect of this ingredient is that it helps to make skin tone even. It's a great ingredient to counter dark areas and uneven skin tone. It's well-researched and considered safe. But it's acid and can irritate the skin if used too often.
#3Ascorbyl Palmitate (Vitamin C Palmitate)
Ascorbyl Palmitate is a derivative of ascorbic and palmitic acids. It's a fat-soluble form of Vitamin C. It penetrates into the skin through cell membranes. Acts as an antioxidant. Due to its antioxidant properties, it is considered a rejuvenating vitamin. Controls the production of collagen in cells. Non-irritant at neutral pH.
#4Biotin
Biotin is also known as Vitamin H or Vitamin B7. It is an amazing chemical, but only if you take it inside as a supplement. Will it work if you apply it to the skin? There is not enough scientific data that can prove its efficiency as a cosmetic component. But manufacturers say it can smooth the skin and improve the look of your hair.
#5Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract
![Good for oily skin](https://skinsignal.com/api/web/image/layout/oily_good.png?w=30&q=50)
Green Tea Leaf Extract is a great antioxidant often used in Korean skincare products. It contains EGCG - the most effective flavonoid. It makes the skin look fresh, fills it with vitamines, and helps to prevent aging. It also helps to lower inflammation.
