"I always tell my patients that the best sunscreen is one that they love to use," says Andrea Cambio, dermatologist and member of the American Academy of Dermatology. Even so, not all face SPFs are created equal. Consider these pros and cons before you add (yet another) product to your cart.
Physical sunscreens contain minerals that sit on the skin's surface and block UV rays. Also known as mineral sunscreens, they 'tend to have broader spectrum coverage' compared to chemical sunscreens, Cambio says.
Although mineral sunscreens are typically what people think of as chalky lifeguard sunscreens, there are many brands now that are 'easy to apply and look great,' says Hadley King, board-certified dermatologist.
Specifically, look for formulas that are gel or clear because they typically dry more quickly and won't leave those telltale white marks that physical sunscreens often do.
