When it comes to essential skincare protection, nothing beats sunscreen. With the worsening environment, increased stress, and artificial light, the demand for sun protection has become even stronger. What we need is comprehensive and lightweight protection. If you want your skin to truly breathe, these 10 sunscreens are all you need.
Estée Lauder No Sun Sun Protector Sunscreen
Reference price: $470 for 50ml
Starting from last year, this sunscreen broke the traditional concept by introducing the concept of genetic sun protection. Although there are no updates this year, I still think this sunscreen is worth recommending due to its unique patented genetic sun protection, which protects skin cells at the DNA level. This sunscreen is also a high-performance physical sunscreen that only acts on the surface of the skin without penetrating it, ensuring safety.
Bioderma Photoderm Max Spray
Reference price: $298 for 200ml
Bioderma has also used cell protection technology to provide dual protection for cells damaged by UV radiation. In addition to protecting the surface of the skin, it can also stimulate the skin's own defense capabilities, keeping the immune system of the skin working normally. This spray does not contain alcohol or preservatives, making it safe and sweat-proof, without leaving white marks.
Lancome Lightweight Breathable Sunscreen
Reference price: $480 for 30ml
The name itself gives away its key feature - it eliminates the heaviness of traditional sunscreens. With its lightweight texture, it doesn't burden the skin while still providing comprehensive protection against UV rays, pollution, and visible light, which can cause excessive pigmentation and dark spots on the skin. It uses the patented ingredient Mexorly by L'Oreal to achieve this all-around protection.
Chanel Pearl Brightening Makeup Base
Reference price: $540 for 30ml
Using light and color technology, this makeup base evens out the skin tone, hides imperfections, and provides effective sun protection. It also enhances the skin's natural radiance. The three new colors include rose, which can correct pale and dull skin; pearl white, which brightens the overall complexion and creates clarity; and mimosa, which corrects yellowish skin tone and evens out the complexion.
Guerlain Pearl Skin Whitening Sunscreen
Reference price: $590 for 30ml
With its high sun protection factor, it provides comprehensive protection against UV damage. It also contains anti-aging and detoxifying factors to protect the skin from free radical damage. Despite its rich texture, it doesn't feel greasy after application. A small amount is enough to apply to the entire face. The pearl micro-particles instantly create a uniform and translucent complexion, giving the skin a fantastic glow.
Dior Honey Glow Youthful Radiance Whitening Sunscreen
Reference price: $990 for 30ml
This is the first protective series with remarkable brightening effects. It helps the skin resist the impact of UV rays, climate, environmental pollution, and artificial light, providing comprehensive protection for the skin. It also significantly fades the memory of dark spots and effectively inhibits their reappearance. The last statement might be a bit exaggerated, so it's best to try it out for yourself to see if it's true.
Kiehl’s Refreshing Sunscreen Lotion
Reference price: $350 for 30ml
This sunscreen could have been included in the classic series recommended yesterday, but it's considered a new product because it has been updated this year. It still maintains the 4 Free formula, without added fragrances, colorants, greasiness, or pore-clogging properties. It also contains vitamin E to enhance antioxidant efficacy, making it capable of resisting the photoaging effects caused by triple UV rays.
Origins Dr. Weil Mega-Defense Barrier-Boosting Sunscreen
Reference price: $360 for 30ml
This sunscreen provides 100% physical sun protection, offering the gentlest protection for the skin. It not only effectively blocks UV rays but also absorbs and dissolves heavy metals and various pollutants, preventing damage to the skin's basal layer caused by environmental pollution. Its lightweight texture, colorless formula, and multiple natural plant essential oil ingredients provide nourishment and protection to the skin, and the fragrance is especially soothing.
Lancaster Refreshing Sport Sunscreen Spray
Reference price: $390 for 120ml
With its new infrared protection technology, it provides protection against both UV and infrared rays. Although it is a sports sunscreen, it doesn't feel heavy or greasy. The spray design allows for easy application, and it immediately blends into the skin, creating a transparent protective film. It can also be used on wet skin.
Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Water Gel Sunscreen
Reference price: $79 for 50ml
With its non-greasy formula, it instantly spreads and absorbs into the skin, leaving no sticky feeling. It can be considered an invisible sunscreen. The sunscreen ingredients do not mix with sweat and can evaporate instantly.
