My camera’s smudged with sunscreen for the next few weeks, so here’s what I’ve been using so far and a cottage shelfie, because why not?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Banana Boat Kids’ sunscreen is one that I buy every summer because you can use it on your face and it doesn’t smudge into your eyes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Coppertone Sport because it was on sale, and I just feel like a sports sunscreen is so versatile. It’s water-resistant, so you can just jump into the water and not worry about it lasting. I do notice that it dries as a whitish powder and needs to be rubbed in very well, but if you’re just lounging by the pool or the lake, that might not bother you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Neutrogena UltraSheer – honestly, I’m reading “No More Tears” right now, and I will not buy a Johnson’s and Johnson’s product ever again, including Tylenol. Thank you to the person who recommended that book to me!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Cerave Night Cream is a fantastic all-purpose moisturizer, but they’ve recently brought out their Facial Moisturizing Lotion in SPF 50 (it was SPF 30 before), and it is fantastic. In terms of sun-protecting ingredients, this is a hybrid of chemical and physical sun filters, so it has a tiny bit of a white cast, but that doesn’t bother me. Under makeup or even on its own, I feel like it gives a bit of skin-perfecting coverage.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Biore UV Aqua Rich spray sunscreen is one that I picked up in Asia. Honestly, I think I bought it by mistake because I do not trust the coverage of a spray sunscreen. I basically hosed myself down with this so that I could make sure that I didn’t miss a spot, and so I used almost the whole bottle in one day. I don’t recommend any kind of spray sunscreen unless you have money to burn. Half of it flies away into the air, and who knows if the other half is enough protection? I did not get burned, but I tried to stay out of the sun.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
