Have you ever found yourself wondering if your sunscreen can also work as a moisturiser? This episode goes into the science of sunscreen formulations—what to look out for and how to remove it properly.

I would say that using a dermatologist recommended sunscreen with moisturising properties is ideal but it is more important for people to understand the two separate functions. Sun protection is essential to minimise one’s risk of skin cancer and photoaging but it is a separate function from that of a moisturiser. The fundamentals of cosmetic formulation would be that every added ingredient would lower the concentration of the other active ingredients. It is simply not possible for a sunscreen product to contain sufficient moisturising ingredients compared to a product that is a moisturiser base alone.
