The Style and Beauty Doctor's Sunscreen Picks: What She Rates and What She Skips

"This is the best one for me out of all the Ultraviolette sunscreens that I've tried. The formula is lightweight, it's very moisturizing, it's got a natural finish. This is one of those rare sunscreens where I could wear it year round. It's lightweight enough to be okay for the warmer months but it's still moisturizing enough in the colder months where my skin doesn't feel dried out. Now if we get like a super super cold, like below freezing New York City winter day, I might need more than this, but I would say for most parts of the year I'd be able to wear something like this with my oily skin."

"I paid $21 for this and you're going to get 50 ml which is about 1.7 oz. When I hear serum I think something quite runny, but this is very oily. When you put it on the skin it's very shiny and radiant at first, and it's going to stay like that for a couple minutes but it does dry down to where it's more of like a satin type of finish. So it's not completely oily oily but keep that in mind because sometimes skincare products don't play well together depending on what the base is. You might put this on with one of your favorite moisturizers and notice that the moisturizer starts to pill up on your skin. Usually to avoid that you want to either get a couple minutes in between your products so one dries down before you put the other one on, or try to use products that all have similar bases. Me personally I didn't need a moisturizer underneath this sunscreen because I felt that it was moisturizing enough for the climate I'm in."

"This is a really good mineral sunscreen. I did have a slight white cast. It wasn't the worst white cast that I've seen. It blends in beautifully. I don't have to be like really worried because there's some mineral sunscreens that feel very pasty and it's really hard to blend into the skin. This blends in really nicely. It takes a little longer to blend in so that you've got it all covered. If you've got facial hair, the white cast be all in your facial hair, so I had white cast in my eyebrow and in my edges and whatnot. If you are someone with facial hair, keep that in mind. It's a lot easier to blend than a lot of mineral sunscreens I've come across. There is a white cast, but it's not that bad. When working out with that on, if you have ever worked out with a mineral sunscreen on that wasn't water resistant or if you ever sweated outside of working out, the white cast becomes a little bit more apparent. If you're profusely sweating, then you're like dripping white droplets all over the place. So be mindful of that."

"This is the Skin1004 Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Stick. Centella when you see that and you probably see that a lot in Korean products, Centella is something that's going to help to calm and soothe the skin. So if you have sensitive skin or you just like, you know, I'm just mad zen. I want my skin to be zen too and calming or whatever, then maybe Centella is for you. So this is $14.30 for 30 g. Again, with the sunscreen stick, they're so easy to carry around. This one has chemical/organic UV filters, but this is a Korean sunscreen, not a Korean-American. This is straight up from the motherland. Korea sunscreen, right? You can use this year round, much like I was saying with the Olay Invisible Sunscreen. You might need to put a moisturizer on first and you know, then you could, you know, use this year round. It has a natural finish. Super easy to carry around like this little, you just slap that in your bag. You could even use it to reapply over your makeup."

"I tend to use whatever my body sunscreen is on my neck just because body sunscreens tend to come in bigger bottles and they tend to be less expensive than the facial ones. However, two of my picks will include the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel SPF 50. If you want something lightweight that feels like a serum."

"This has to be one of my favorites thus far. This one is very lightweight. However, it still kept me feeling hydrated and moisturized. So, this felt hydrating and moisturizing. I like this. I could wear this in the summertime. I could probably wear this, you know, like spring, fall, the winter, I might need a little bit more than this, but this I really like. This is probably the second or third Thank You Farmer sunscreen that I've tried just in general. Thank You Farmer one that came in a blue packaging that I remember really liking as well a couple years back."
