Does anyone have advice on sunscreens to use while pregnant / TTC? I live in the south and love being outside in summer, but have read that most “chemical” sunscreens — pretty much everything out there! — have ingredients that should be avoided and that physical sunscreens (like zinc) are better. I bought Neutrogena’s physical sunscreen for my face, but it takes forever to absorb. I also tried bare minerals’ prep step, but the smell is…just awful. Any advice on face / body sunscreens would be very appreciated! Same for makeup you loved and that was pregnancy-friendly…. I’ve been sticking to bare minerals but am not crazy about it….
