Choosing the Right Sunscreen for Your Skin
Sunscreens have come a long way from the sticky, white paste we used to slather on each summer. With mineral powders, oil-free formulations, and nutrient-rich hydrators, there’s a sunscreen designed with your complexion in mind. But with such a wide variety to choose from, knowing which sunscreen is best for your skin type can be tricky. Get to know your options and protect your skin from premature aging and unnecessary environmental damage — there’s no reason not to when the choices are this good.
