I meant that I was using it in B.B. Cream form vs a separate sunscreen.<br /> I just saw what @lawbee: said so I’m going to start using that Glossier one I got over the summer! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790842 Fri, 08 Dec 2017 10:20:55 +0000 periwinklebee 2790842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: Good to know about the recent version, as I wasn't sure if the older one would be degraded (not sure of shelf life of sunscreen....) </p> <p>@lawbee11: This makes a lot of sense, I have a tinted moisturizer with spf but spf isn't great... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790841 Fri, 08 Dec 2017 10:16:04 +0000 lawbee11 2790841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pancakes: I've only used whatever version is in that link. I always just order from Amazon :) </p> <p>@SweetiePie: @periwinklebee: I used to also just use a tinted moisturizer with sunscreen but my dermatologist told me it's really better to use a separate sunscreen. So I always put the Biore on first before anything else. I think it smells good, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790840 Fri, 08 Dec 2017 10:14:54 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 2790840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pancakes: yes, it's the same thing just different/updated packaging. I haven't noticed any difference between the two! I've been getting the 2017 version. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790839 Fri, 08 Dec 2017 10:13:19 +0000 periwinklebee 2790839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: Good to know!</p> <p>@SweetiePie: I think dermatologists recommend an spf of at least 30, but above that it doesn't make a huge difference. I don't know exactly how the scale works, but I think it's logarithmic or something. 15 to 30 takes you from blocking 93 to 97% of UVB radiation but 50 doesn't give that much more and beyond that gains are even more limited... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790806 Fri, 08 Dec 2017 08:02:38 +0000 SweetiePie 2790806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’ve acrually heard amazing things about the Biore and La roche Posay ones mentioned in beauty blogs.<br /> Maybe I’m bad but I just use my B.B. Cream as my sunscreen 😬 It has spf 30 but maybe it’s not sufficient? I use it Year round though and never got burnt. </p> <p>I also got the Glossier sunscreen serum but never ended up using it! Now this makes me want to go try it. It’s supposed to be a very light serum/gel instead of a lotion. To be used with your normal moisturizer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790789 Fri, 08 Dec 2017 06:39:25 +0000 Pancakes 2790789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BadgerMom: @Mrs. High Heels: @lawbee11: Have any of you tried the 2017 formula or do you use the older version? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790785 Fri, 08 Dec 2017 01:30:31 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 2790785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm third-ing @lawbee11: @BadgerMom: - that Biore one is truly the bestttt and so affordable! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790783 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 23:49:22 +0000 periwinklebee 2790783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you - all awesome suggestions and I'm sure an improvement over what I've been using! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790734 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 15:47:55 +0000 BadgerMom 2790734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm with @lawbee11: </p> <p>It was recommended here on HB and it's my fav! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790722 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 15:10:36 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2790722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@periwinklebee: Ive been using Devita sunscreen mixed into my mositurizer for years now. It’s a really nice mineral sunscreen that actually blends and rubs in decently well. They sell the line at Whole Foods. <a href="http://devitaskincare.com/store/solar-protective-moisturizer-spf-30-25-oz75ml-p-17534.html" rel="nofollow">http://devitaskincare.com/store/solar-protective-moisturizer-spf-30-25-oz75ml-p-17534.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790720 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 15:05:42 +0000 nanilani 2790720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've recently started using Dermalogica (<a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JORKTCE/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JORKTCE/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1</a>) on my face. I orginally bought it with the intention of always wearing sunscreen (ahem, can't say I've kept it up) b/c it feels like regular lotion and doesn't leave a white cast. I started using it on my face after I ran out of my regular moisturizer, and I can't feel a difference. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790716 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 14:59:16 +0000 snowjewelz 2790716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: I really love the Missha one because it's neither lotion nor sunscreen. It goes on super light and leaves no cast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790710 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 14:43:25 +0000 Foodnerd81 2790710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ive been using Olay but I’m starting to really get some wrinkles and less than fine lines, so I think it’s time to step it up! </p> <p>Of these suggestions- do they feel like a regular lotion or do they feel sunscreen-y? I like skinceuticals over the summer when I’m really in the sun but it feels a little heavy for like, walking through parking lots and such in the winter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790700 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 14:26:43 +0000 periwinklebee 2790700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you all - great suggestions! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-spf-lotion-do-you-use-for-your-face#post-2790630 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 11:40:45 +0000 Meowkers 2790630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been using Algenist Anti-Aging Moisturizer with SPF for about 5 years and it's amazing.
