What daily sunscreen do you use?

[BiscuitLover09876]

I know you're supposed to wear one daily and I never do this. Surely they get all oily?

If you're using sunscreen under makeup, what do you do it it's a sunny day and are outside a lot. Do you add over makeup during the day?

You can get spray ones to top up over makeup. Something like this...

I'd only bother if I was properly out in for any length of time though, which doesn't happen often. I usually seek some shade after a while as I start to feel uncomfortable in the blazing sun. My kids do the same so I'm not often chasing them around in it for too long either.

Biore watery essence

Beauty pie one is fab

Or la Roche posay.

I always wear factor 50.

I wear religiously as I use Retinol at night

Boots protect and perfect factor 50.

Laura Mercier Primer Pure Canvas Protecting spf30 UVA/UVB which I hope no ones going to tell me isn’t good enough as I love it. I can’t feel it, it didn’t hurt my eyes and as it’s a primer makeup goes on like a dream. I did use LRP and it was okay but I always looked a bit shiny. I’ve ordered the watery essence from Amazon but after reading this thread I’m worried it’ll be a fake.

I didn’t wear sun screen every day until very recently.I think they are all sticky and don’t like the feel of too many products on my face.

La Roche Posay anthelios 50. Easily absorbed and not greasy under makeup

I use this too. Very smooth to apply and lasts for ages. Also started using for the kids as it has such a nice consistency.

Just started using the Ultra Violette Supreme screen - really impressed! Goes on really well not sticky and easy to wear under make-up.

Just bought the Ultra Violette one and I love it. Goes on very well.

Another vote for Biore though be careful buying on eBay etc - seems to be sold cheaply by dodgy sellers which makes me doubt it’s real. Usually I stock up on holiday, can’t do that now obviously 😢

Currently using Murad city skin. It's a mineral sunscreen. I absolutely love it although is very expensive so not sure if I will repurchase. I got it as part of a set you see.

Clinique City Block SPF 40 most days. If it's super sunny the Ultrasun SPF 50 on face and decolletage. Ultrasun SPF 30 on arms/other exposed bits. I'm pale so it works on my skin and it's not sticky once it's soaked in Also it doesn't smell - I've never found any sunscreen I like the smell of!

Also Clinique cityblock sheer. But I think it is being discontinued

I'm using the Gruum one just now but not loving it. Very thick and leaves a white cast if not wearing makeup

For the last year I've used Bondi Sands face SPF 50, it's very good and very affordable!

@Phyllis321

The Watery Essence one or Frezyderm tinted one. Both excellent.

Second the Frezyderm one.

Skinceuticals brightening UV defence spf 50 (something like that) - it’s brilliant, but so expensive! Got it free with my Vit C serum.

@TheYearOfSmallThings

Also Clinique cityblock sheer. But I think it is being discontinued

Noooooooo! I bloody love it. Am going to stock up.

Thank You Farmer is very good - sinks right into the skin. It’s not cheap at £18 a bottle but it’s worth it in my humble opinion.

I really want to try the Biore Watery Essence but I’m sure I’ve read on here in the past that some posters got fakes when buying off Amazon? Happy to be corrected if I’m misremembering. If it’s true, how can you be sure you are getting a legitimate bottle?

I've just ordered the Garnier over make up spray. Thanks for the recommendations. I use Rozex for rosacea and you have to wear sunscreen with it as strong sunlight stops it from being effective.

I’ve been using the Kiehls ultra light daily UV defence sunscreen but find it too heavy so when it’s finished i’ll switch back to LRP Anthelios or try the Supergoop one

I use La Roche-Posay Anthelios Anti-Shine as I have super oily skin!

Think I need to up my application. I use Tretinoin and my skin feels sore this evening. I'm out a lot in the day and am nervous about using Tretinoin in the summer now.
