Going to Mexico for my babymoon in a few weeks and looking for a new sunscreen. What do you use?
-
Neutrogena Dry Touch - I *hate* the feeling of sunscreen but this stuff is awesome. Great SPF coverage too!
-
Neutrogena in yellow bottle
-
@yoursilverlining: is it a spray or lotion?
-
@Mamaof2: I'm not sure if it is also available as a spray - I've always bought as a lotion!
-
I love the devita brand for both facial sunscreen and the regular body sunscreen. It absorbs really nicely even though it's mineral based. (Instead of chemical)
-
Usually Neutrogena dry touch for my face, anything for my body for beach. If I'm just out and about not going in the water I use Eucerin Daily Protection Moisturizing Face Lotion mineral sunscreen. I've been trying to stay away from the -benzones that is in most sunscreens, but that is difficult for inexpensive waterproof ones.
-
@yoursilverlining: thanks!
I am looking for something non-greasy for my face -
I have Protection Sport SPF 50 for my body and have been using Biore Sarasara (amazon) on my face, which i am obsessed with. Mr.s High Heels recommended it.
-
I love neutrogena dry touch. Stick with spf 30 or 45. I found anything higher was super thick and harder to rub in!
-
I also use the neutrogena dry touch. I love that its super light and easy to put on
-
I use Badger. It leaves white and I don't care. It is worth it to me, the least toxic. I also use sun protective clothing and a sun hat.
-
Cotz! It's really "safe" when it comes to all the gross chemicals and stuff they put in sunscreen. And they have a pure complexion one that is awesome to use on your face.
-
@Mamaof2: Cotz is awesome for facial sunscreen!
-
For days when I am abnormally outside I use Banana Boat Sport SPF 30. Although it takes a while to really massage it in my skin doesn't feel greasy. I use Cetaphil's facial moisturizer with SPF 15 as a daily sunscreen.
-
Hawaiian Tropic. It's the only one I've used that is non greasy.
-
I usually use Neutrogena. Can't remember the exact name, but it is oil-free. Just a warning about the sprays -- they are definitely easier to put on, but much harder to get full coverage. I stopped using spray sunscreen after I applied spray to my body, cream to my face (both the same SPF) and ended up with bad sunburn on my body and nothing on my face. It was not ideal, but at least I guess it turned out a good way to compare the two, haha.
-
I use Neutrogena for my face and whichever is cheaper for my body. I always use lotion and not the spray stuff because the coverage is better and you don't go through a bottle as quickly.
-
I use the biore one blackbird mentioned for face. 50+ SPF and goes on really easily. Not greasy at all and absorbs quickly! I only use sunscreen for body when I'm going to the beach or pool. I think it's just a basic coppertone sport.
@blackbird: it's only $11.98 right now with prime shipping!!
-
I like Banana Boat or Coppertone lotions for the body.
-
@Mrs. High Heels: Wow that's definitely a lot cheaper! Hopefully it stays low in a couple months when i run out. I definitely don't want a tan postpartum, in case it never goes away!
-
Spray on Target sport sunscreen spf 30.... in my younger stupider days I wore hawaiian tropic oil spf 4/8.
-
Neutrogena
-
@Chillybear: yep, I remember those days - oil yourself up and then bake for 6-8 hours
-
I have tried to find something that's safer that I like better than Coppertone Sport for the body, but I just can't. I use the yellow Clinique on my face.
-
I use this. It checks all my boxes because I'm acne prone, have oily skin, want natural sunscreen, and also want UVA protection to prevent aging. It goes on a little white if you aren't pale, but I cover it with BB cream a lot anyway. Obviously only for my face because I'm not rolling in dough. It makes my skin feel so smooth.
-
Hawaiian Tropic (or Coppertone Sport as my backup option).
-
I love Supergoop they sell it at Birchbox.
