Sun protection encompasses a bigger territory than just slathering some sunscreen gel before hitting outdoors on a bright sunny day. Still, it is considered as an essential first step of our skincare routine. With more and more manufacturers marking their foray into the skin care industry, we are offered a variety of sunscreens, each having different SPF content as well as ingredient structure. Today, we are going to take a look at the best sunscreen gels, meant for different skin types, so that you can take a well-informed purchase decision time and again.
Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Water Resistant and Non-Greasy Sunscreen Lotion Women having normal skin can take their pick amongst a wide variety of physical or chemical sunscreen gels which are labelled as “broad-spectrum” and can thus render protection against both UVA and UVB rays. Although the chemical ones might seem more cosmetically elegant, the micronized physical ones can look equally sheer on ladies having normal skin.
Lancome – BIENFAIT UV SPF 50+ • Although dry skin is usually associated with growing age, it is a common phenomenon seen amongst women belonging to all age groups. A proper sunscreen gel can help these ladies rejuvenate their skin with high moisture content while providing adequate protection from the sun.
La Roche-PosayAnthelios Melt-In Sunscreen Milk SPF 60 • Women with oily skin should be careful about selecting their sunscreen as various brands offer sunscreen gels which just tends to make their skin even greasier. Formulas infused with alcohol or gel are ideal for combating excess oil secretion. Chemical formulas can provide you with best looking results as minerals tend to have a drying effect and can thus render a matte finish to your skin.
Supergoop! Everyday SPF 50 Sunscreen For Face and Body, with Sunflower Extract • A combination skin is characterised by certain oily parts of your face such as the chin, nose, forehead and T-zone and certain dry ones. This unevenness makes it extremely difficult to use any particular face product. • If you have a combination skin, then this moisturizing lotion for body and face can defend your skin from dehydration and photo ageing which are some of the biggest perils of the harmful UV rays. This oil-free and water-resistant sunscreen can moisturize our skin with nourishing anti-ageing benefits apart from offering broad-spectrum UV protection.
Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Facial Moisturizer • Mineral sunscreens tend to leave a white or blue veil haze on darker skin which can make us look chalky. Chemical sunscreen can serve as the ideal choice for dark-skinned women as it renders a more natural finish.
Bottom Line Sunscreens can be broadly segregated into the two different categories of physical and chemical. The Chemical ones usually consist of octinoxate, oxybenzone, octocrylene, octisalate, avobenzone, homosalate, or a combination of these. They absorb UV rays and release the same after being converted into heat. Physical sunscreen gels sit atop the skin for deflecting the damaging UV rays and mainly comprise of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. For making the most out of your sunscreen, it is always advisable to go ahead with the one which matches with your particular skin type.
