While it might be tempting to shop for a gift with a big wow factor this Mother’s Day, why not spring for something practical—an item your mom will actually use on a regular basis?
Enter sunscreens. They’re not be flashy or luxe, but they are an everyday necessity, regardless of the weather or time of year. And why? “UV rays travel through the clouds to damage our skin even on cloudy rainy days and in winter,” explains Dr. David Kim, a board-certified dermatologist at New York City’s Idriss Dermatology. He adds, “It's hands down the best anti-aging skincare product, because UV rays degrade collagen and elastin, while causing fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation.” Also important to note is that skin cancer—which affects 20% of Americans and typically results from cumulative UV exposure—is preventable with regular use of sunscreen and staying out of the sun.
Sunscreens can be broken down into two categories: physical and chemical. Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide are FDA-approved for use in mineral sunscreens—which block and reflect UV rays—while chemical suncreens usually feature oxybenzone, avobenzone, and, octocrylene that work by absorbing UV rays. Chemical sunscreens are better at resisting sweat and water, but “can irritate sensitive skin and get absorbed in significant levels,” says Dr. Kim. Also, oxybenzone and octinoxate are harmful to coral reefs—so much so they’re banned in Hawaii. If you’re someone who’s prone to hyperpigmentation or are in the midst of family planning (egg retrieval, IVF, pregnancy, breastfeeding), Dr. Kim recommends sticking with physical sunscreens.
No matter your preferences, let this gift guide of ten face sunscreens ideal for even sensitive and oily skin take the guesswork out of finding one that’ll suit you best.
“What I learned throughout my career is that people know the importance of sunscreen,” says Dr. Kim. “However, many don't like to use sunscreen because of the heavy texture and unpleasant scent.” That’s why he created Lightsaver, an award-winning mineral sunscreen that makes daily SPF application “a true pleasure to use.” The groundbreaking formula is lightweight, subtly tinted for a natural glow, and so gentle it’s been approved by the National Eczema Association.
While silicones are safe for topical use and found in many face sunscreens, they can trigger itchiness and redness on very sensitive faces. To remedy that, the popular Australian sunscreen company Naked Sundays developed this breakthrough clear gel SPF serum that’s silicone-free, water-based, and transparent for an invisible finish.
