EltaMD UV Clear Face Sunscreen ($19, originally $24)
Finding a good sunscreen can be tricky, but all of that headache ends with EltaMD. The brand’s dermatologist-recommended clear sunscreen promises to protect those with oily to combination, acne-prone, and sensitive skin types, thanks to ingredients like niacinamide, vitamin E, lactic acid, and hyaluronic acid. It also comes in three formats — untinted, tinted, and deep tinted, allowing you to find the range that works best for your skin type. One editor confirmed it lives up to the hype in our EltaMD UV Clear Face Sunscreen review.
Editor Quote: “I’ve also noticed that some mineral formulations tend to break me out, but the EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 does not clog my pores or make my skin feel congested. This sunscreen seemingly creates a barrier on my skin, similar to a makeup primer, shielding it from external dust, pollutants, and UV rays. Using the EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 makes me feel like my skin is actually getting the broad spectrum SPF coverage it needs.” — Anvita Reddy, former assistant shopping editor
