The Sunscreen It List

Hello Fashionistas!!! Are you ladies tired of smelling like a swimming pool when swimming isn't on your schedule for the day? Or if your skin is as sensitive as mine, are you tired of the annoying breakouts you get that comes along with protecting your skin from the sun? Well, after doing some research, I've rounded up the top sunscreens that can be used all year round.

Super- Sensitive/ Sensitive Skin

If your skin is super sensitive to sensitive, look for the oil free, baby versions of sunscreens. The formulas are always ultra-gentle so the skin won't be irritated. 



 Banana Boat has the really strong chlorine scent, but their products get great reviews. 

I've never tried the Adorable Baby brand. After reading so many reviews, I've already purchased my first bottle. Adorable Baby contains all natural and organic ingredients. Its main ingredient, non-nano zinc oxide, protects the skin against UVB and UVA rays with 30 SPF protection, and I hear the smell is amazing. Not to mention, the product received a low hazard rating from the Environmental Working Group (EWG).

Banana Boat Natural Reflect Baby: $8.99, Target       Adorable Baby Sunscreen: $24.99, Amazon.com



Best Protection and Scents

I've tried many different sunscreens because of their scents, but I didn't really focus on the ingredients. Now, I'm really aware of what I'm putting onto my body especially with all of the chemicals that are being put into products these days. 

This sunscreen is paraben free and provides mineral protection. The best thing is that it's fragrance free, so that it won't interfere with any other scents that you may want to wear. 
Alba Botanica Very Emollient Sunblock: $7.35, Vitacost.com

This organic green tea and herbal blend prevents radical damage and fights aging effects of sun exposure and pollution. Swimming pool scent not included!!! 
Aubrey Organics Natural Sun Spf 30+: $15.95, Walgreens

This sunscreen was developed with the naturally protective plant cells of the Buddleja Davidii Stems and the Lilac Leaf, which have been shown to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This formula was made with 70% organic inactive ingredients and is preservative free. This sunscreen is also unscented.
Coola Plant UV Body SPF Moisturizer: $42.00, Organaca.com 

This sunscreen is 100% all natural!!! It's organic, vegan, non-toxic, woman owned, and cruelty free!!! It's really gentle, so it won't cause breakouts, (yay for us sensitive skin girls!!!) and it's not too expensive!  "Loving Naturals products never contain solvents, sulfates, synthetic fragrances, parabens, phthalates or petrochemicals.

  1. Great post Breaya. Sorry to hear about your sensible skin. I don't have such problems so I use pretty much any drugstore product with high protection.
