Anessa Perfect UV Sunscreen Skincare Gel NB SPF50+ PA++++ vs Daily Sun Serum SPF 30 Mineral Sunscreen: which is safer?

Where these two actually differ

• We flag Synthetic UV filter stability and photodegradation, Fragrance allergens and undisclosed fragrance components and Silicone accumulation on skin and potential microbiome effects on the Shiseido and not on the Derma E.
• We flag 1,4-dioxane (non-intentional contaminant from surfactants/emulsifiers) and Fragrance allergens (if fragrance is present) on the Derma E and not on the Shiseido.
• The Shiseido is Water-resistant gel sunscreen with silicone and UV filters where the Derma E is Mineral sunscreen, zinc oxide base, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
• The gap is 25 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Derma E is the one to buy.
• We are less certain about the Shiseido grade, at 42% confidence against 88%, because it discloses less.
