Best Drugstore Sunscreens for Everyday

Summer has come, and so have your sunburns. If you don’t want to be looking like a raisin in your fifties, now is the time to start wearing sunscreen. “But sunscreens break me out!” you may cry, or “But sunscreens are so greasy!” Well reader, I have chosen the best affordable sunscreen options according to skin type in no particular order: 

CeraVe Ultra-Light Moisturizing Lotion with SPF 30: 

As said in the name, this sunscreen is Ultra-Light. It is perfect for my sensitive, acne-prone readers. However, she is accommodating for all skin types. You are also in luck if you are running low on moisturizer: your skin will drink this hydrating SPF up like it’s a parched throat on a July evening. You will be able to replace this as your moisturizer in the morning! Moreover, this sunscreen gives users blue-light protection from many light sources such as the sun or from electronic devices, like your computer. So reader, if you work hard in front of your computer but also want to lay under the summer sun, this sunscreen is perfect for you!

La Roche-Posay Anthelios Melt-in Milk SPF 60: 

This sunscreen may have a long name, but its duration on the skin is longer. For our oily-skin readers, LaRoche Posay has blessed us with a sunscreen that is so light-weight and so not greasy that you will barely be able to feel it upon your face. Additionally, this sunscreen will not slide off your skin if you dip yourself into the ocean, or if you happen to be sweating (but of course we don’t sweat, we glow!). This sunscreen pairs quite well with makeup as well!

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen SPF 70: 

For my readers who knows that sunscreen should be applied to all body parts visible to the sun (which I am sure is all of you), you are in luck because Neutrogena has come out with a big bottle of sunscreen suitable for face AND body. No more running to CVS to pick up separate sunscreens for your face and body. This sunscreen is also water-resistant and not greasy like the LaRoche Posay formula! 

E.L.F Cosmetics Suntouchable Invisible Sunscreen SPF 35: 

Elf is looking out for the girls in this product launch as many of us cannot find an SPF without a white cast that looks good under makeup. This sunscreen is not only light-weight and not greasy, but it is also designed to act as a primer. This SPF will not only protect your face from the sun’s UV rays, but it will also provide a firm base for your makeup. Your makeup will not slip and slide from this product as it might with other sunscreens! 

Black Girl Sunscreen Make it Matte SPF 45: 

Even in this day and age, it is so hard to find a sunscreen that is suitable for our Darker skin toned readers. Many sunscreens often come with a white cast, but not with the Black Girl Sunscreen! This sunscreen is guaranteed to not be greasy as it is created with a matte formula. It is also non-camedogenic so it won’t clog your pores and lead to breakouts. Overall, it has a very soothing and gentle formula!
