Usually I try to stay indoors during peak sun hours, but my job is basically outside. I need some good sunscreen for my face. Does anyone have any recs?
I currently use a Neutrogena for my face (forget the name, but it's supposed to be "special" for the face) but the SPF is only 15 & I'd like something more like 30+. I used a higher SPF sunscreen yesterday & now I have 2 lovely zits as a result!
Re: sunscreen for face
ditto this
i also like aveeno facial sunscreens

I have used both Neutrogena Ultra Sheer and an Aveeno one. I mostly now just try to stay out of the sun because everything seems to set my face off but I can usually use those two without much trouble.
I'm investigating those hats that offer UV protection for myself so that I can get away with just my moisturizer with 30SPF. I just bought one for Hannah that is 50+UPF protection from babybanz but they don't make adult sizes.
I don't know why but drugstore moisturizers with spf make me break out...it sucks. Over the years, I've tried Neutrogena, Aveeno, Oil of Olay, Almay and I'm sure I'm forgetting a few. But I have had good luck with Clinique. Right now I'm using their "Even Better" moisturizer that has spf 20.
I was using Hope in a Jar 20 from Philosophy and I love it, but they reformulated it to spf 25 and it made me breakout big time :-(
