@rachelbrown  I second the advice to try out the Sephora Favourites Sun Safety set.  You'll get a chance to try out several formulas.  My suggestion for a moisturizing SPF would be the Josie Maran Argan Daily Moisturizer SPF 40 0.5 oz It's a great moisturizer/SPF combo in my dry skin opinion.

I'm using Retin A and my skin is rather sensitive and moisture starved.

I'm really liking Biossance Squalane + Zinc Sheer Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 PA +++ 

and Peter Thomas Roth Mini Water Drench ® Hyaluronic Hydrating Moisturizer SPF 45 0.67 oz/ 20 mL 

Definitely check the Sephora Favorites Sun Safety kit that for some reason I'm unable to link to lol. But it's $200+ worth of sunscreens for $39 🙂

Not sure what your budget is, so I'm leaving a couple of options 🙂 I have dry skin, and these are wonderful moisturizers for me:

I also use the repair cream, shiseido sunscreen and supergoop sunscreen. When I was reading the OP, those three popped into my mind.

Personally I like supergoop a tad more because it glides on like a primer.
