The unofficial start of summer will soon be here.  For one of (or the 😭) final Sephora Six, I want to know your spiffy SPF saviors.

@danielledanielle  Great picks!  My fav is Summer Fridays ShadeDrops Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Mineral Milk Sunscreen 1.7 oz / 50 mL  I haven’t tried the new formula but this one doesn’t irritate  my skin or make my eyes water like some do!!

@danielledanielle  Sad to think we’re in last hurrah mode on BIC. 😥 But I’ll still list one hybrid and five chemical sunscreens as my current faves.

SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Hyalu-CICA Water-Fit Sun Serum (the Korean formula) - I mean I’m sure the US version’s fine but I know I love the Korean version, so that’s what I’ll use as long as I can keep ordering it from J/K-beauty retailers. In other sunscreens, tinosorb M (a hybrid UV filter) pools white in my forehead scar and/or leaves a slight white cast on my skin. That doesn’t happen with this sunscreen.

#Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen Invisible Broad Spectrum SPF 50 PA +++ - the one I reapply throughout the day (even over makeup), no matter which sunscreen I initially applied. I prefer the old 40 SPF version; the 50 SPF reformulation feels greasier to me. But it’s still the sunscreen I like to travel with.

Bondi Sands SPF 50 Fragrance Free Sunscreen Lotion (the body version; I buy the big 5 oz tube) - one of my favorite “bang for your buck” options for face and body. Not too greasy but does make me look dewy.

Black Girl Sunscreen Kids SPF 50 Sunscreen - the regular SPF 30 version contains cocoa butter; the Kids version contains shea butter instead and costs 50% less per ounce (comes in a bigger tube, too). I like both versions but prefer this one for face and body.

Eucerin Age Defense SPF 50 Face Sunscreen - love this during winter, when my facial skin appreciates a thicker greasier layer of something to protect against windchill. This is one of those sunscreens that make people ask how my skin looks so dewy and glowy in subzero weather.

Aveeno Protect + Hydrate Sunscreen Broad Spectrum Body Lotion SPF 60 - I can wear this on my arms and legs without feeling sticky or greasy. Heck, I’d wear it on my face if it wasn’t fragranced.

Bonus 3:

• Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm SPF 25 Black Tea & Blackberry - specifically this flavor, not the others. It masks the usual sunscreen bitterness without tasting gross itself. It’s also a very good moisturizer thanks to petrolatum + lanolin.
• Uniqlo AIRism UV Protection Full-Zip Hoodie (UPF 50) - mine’s an older version, so it might not fit the same as the current version. But it’s a stretchy lightweight travel buddy.
• Various sunglasses - I can’t pick just one favorite pair; I’ve collected too many over the years. 😅

I know, @WinglessOne ... But we're not there just yet.  I didn't know any BGS having a kids version, definitely have to check that out

[WinglessOne]

@danielledanielle  BGS also has a baby version that’s a mineral sunscreen. I haven’t tried it but I’ve seen reviewers say it leaves very little white cast.

I wish I could find a sunscreen I really like, @danielledanielle! My skin seems to hate them all. I think they just clog my pores and cause acne. I’m thinking of trying Beauty of Joseon Day Dew Sunscreen Lightweight SPF 50 1.69 oz/50 mL 

[danielledanielle]

Same @curlychiquita , if they don't leave me oily, they leave me with cysts. 

I really like Beauty of Joseon Dayscreen 2-in-1 SPF 30 Moisturizer with Green Tea-HA + Ceramides 2.02 oz/60 mL  so far.  I think it gave me a few blackheads, but nothing major.  You might be able to get hands on a mini, there was a deluxe sample in one of the multi GWP bags here of it.

ETA : Internet says that the Korean version is less problematic, c/w burning eyes ...I don't put sunscreen in the area, just around the lower orbital area - not the lid.

Thanks, @danielledanielle! I may look at the Korean versions on YesStyle.
