The Sunscreen: Equitance Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 36, $30
Active Ingredients: Physical and chemical
Why It's Worth the Price: Equitance is a skin care brand that just made the jump from Japan to the U.S.. Like many Asian skin care lines, its focus is brightening; this sunscreen has linoleic acid, shell ginger extract and a form of vitamin C to do just that. I love that it's a combination of mineral and chemical sunscreens so you get the benefits of both. And the bottle is small-purse friendly.

The Sunscreen: Josie Maran Argan Daily Moisture SPF 47, $54
Active Ingredients: Physical
Why It's Worth the Price: In the summer, I generally use a moisturizer with SPF and layer more sunscreen over it. This daily moisturizer saves me a step since it's wildly hydrating and has such a high SPF. (Just be sure to apply a full teaspoon.) It also has organic green tea, jojoba, aloe and, of course, argan oil -- all of which my skin loves.
