Sunscreen is an often forgotten step in many people's skin-care routines , but any dermatologist will tell you that wearing it is vital to your skin's health. Why? Because it keeps your face , neck, and body protected from the sun's harmful UVA and UVB rays. Even on overcast and rainy days — or days spent inside when sunscreen feels like an unnecessary addition to your morning routine — it is important to slather it on.
It can be difficult to find the perfect sunscreen formula for your skin type, especially when it doubles as a base for your makeup. If you're like most people, you don't want an SPF moisturizer that is sticky, heavy, or greasy. There are also a lot of options to consider for chemical vs.
physical sunscreens. Whether you want a drugstore sunscreen for sensitive skin, a water-based sunscreen, or a reliable noncomedogenic sunscreen from the drugstore, there are plenty of products to shop for. With affordability in mind, we asked a handful of board-certified dermatologists to share their favorite drugstore SPF.
