The Best Sunscreens for Your SkinHate every sunscreen you've ever tried? You're not alone. But trust us when we say there is one on this list you'll love |
The best sunscreen for you and your kids Don't think your kids' gentle sunscreen is strong enough for you, too? Don't worry: Because kids are more active, sunscreens formulated for babies and children tend to be extra durable, water-resistant, and thicker. New Jersey dermatologist Jeanine Downie, MD, suggests looking for a sunscreen that's both hypoallergenic and fragrance free. "Plus, you want something that's broad spectrum with UVA and UVB protection," she says. "And it has to glide on easily." So choose a kids' formula you like and then slather it all over yourself as well.

Sunscreen is a MUST have for everyone, no matter what time of year. 90% of aging factors are due to the sun and things we do to ourselves, only 10% is from natural aging process.

Superb list of sunscreens. I'm loving Neova; it has a great matte finish and photodamage reversal!

The sun does not discriminate, it does not see if you are a fairer tone or of a darker tone. Diseases like skin cancer, sunburn and other sun or heat related conditions can be caught by anyone exposed to too much sun. It becomes more important for darker skin toned people to wear sunscreen for protection against the sun as darker tones have a higher risk of developing Melanoma. So it is advised to be always protected against harmful UVA/UVB rays, no matter your skin tone .I’ve used ExtraShade sunscreen and love it’s lightweight, moisturizing and doesn’t leave white streaks on my skin! I LOVE IT!

I prefer physical sunscreens so Coola sunscreen sounds like a great option!
