The biore Milk UV sunscreen are also really good and have a lot of protection.

The mineral baby sunscreen from banana boat is my cheap option (but it is greasy), or I use shisheido urban environment oil free (which is expensive). For my face, when I know I am going to be out a while in the summer, I use a combination sunscreen with high zinc oxide.

When I am spending a lot of time outdoors I tend to use a heavier sunscreen, but with oily skin it is a pain. To make matters worse, Consumer Reports evaluated some sunscreens and found a lot of them were not even providing the protection stated on the label. The coola sunscreen is great, but some sunscreens use antioxidants to increase SPF which may keep you from burning, but might not offer the amount of protection you need to avoid hyperpigmentation during the high UV index summer, but if it works for you don't stress, especially considering your mainly indoor exposure right now.

Is there anything else I should be looking for? I have been relying on looking for physical sunscreens with an SPF of at least 30. I guess overall what I'm asking is - what is the best way to evaluate the effectiveness of a sunscreen? I obviously want to ensure what I am slathering on my face every day is actually helping protect against the sun. Navigating through the sheer amount of contradictory information regarding sunscreen here on this sub as well as elsewhere has been pretty frustrating. Also, I was looking for a physical sunscreen because I had read they are more effective, now reading more I find arguments in favour of chemical sunscreen actives (such as avobenzene) over physical. However, now I am reading that the % of sunscreen actives (3.2% titanium dioxide and 1.8% zinc oxide) in the Coola sunscreen might actually not be high enough. In my search, I narrowed it down to 3 sunscreens I've collected over the past few months: Coola Face SPF 30 Cucumber Matte Finish, La Roche Posay Anthelios 50 Mineral Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid, and Paula's Choice Hydralight Shine-Free Mineral Complex SPF 30 (all physical formulations).Īll of these are pretty good, but I'm really into the Coola one in particular. Part of that was obviously incorporating a facial sunscreen that is effective in protecting against sun damage while still feeling nice on my skin and layering under make up well. I'm trying to be more conscious of my skincare as of late since I am trying to fade hyperpigmentation from acne (as well as prevent sunburns, aging, etc.).
