Is that a bad idea? I'm annoyed having to reapply sunscreen every 3 hours and thought maybe later a chemical sunscreen with a physical is a good idea. I wear a 21% zinc oxide sunscreen everyday but I feel like I'm still tanning.
You can certainly layer chemical and physical sunscreens, however, you’re not going to achieve extra spf that way. Just to be safe, don’t layer zinc oxide with avobenzone. I read that they degrade each other . It would probably be more effective to reapply throughout the day instead of layering.
