We always hear this question at Laser & Skin: “What’s the best sunscreen for my skin?” The truth is—it depends! Choosing the right SPF is the key to long-term skin health and sun protection. Here’s how to find your ideal formula.

For Oily or Acne-Prone Skin

Use non-comedogenic, oil-free sunscreens. Look for formulas labeled “matte finish”, “powder” or “gel-based.”

For Dry Skin

Choose SPF with moisturizing ingredients like hyaluronic acid or ceramides.

For Sensitive Skin

Go for mineral sunscreens (zinc oxide or titanium dioxide). Avoid fragrance and alcohol-based formulas.

For Darker Skin Tones

Try tinted mineral sunscreens with iron oxide—they blend better and offer extra protection against visible light.

Boost Your Sun Protection Game

Always layer with antioxidants, reapply every 2 hours and wear protective clothing and sunglasses.
