Hi,
New member from India.
As you may know, my country is hot and one has to use sunscreen. But I currently use a moisturizer (called venusia, it is Indian brand, so overseas ppl may not know) which contains zinc oxide (how much percentage, I dont know). And since zinc oxide is used in sunscreen I am wondering if I can use this moisturizer and go out in the sun (instead of wearing a separate sunscreen on top of it).
So my question, if this moisturizer can act as a sunscreen (because of zinc oxide), then can I do away with sunscreen (since most sunscreens create breakouts for me)?
Does that make sense? Anyway, nice to be here.
