Best Sunscreen for Combination Skin
Question:
Help! Which type of sunscreen is the best for my combination skin? Lotions, sprays or creams?
Sunscreens come in so many textures that you're literally spoiled for choice. Which type to get depends on your skin type and sun protection needs. Here are some pointers to consider before you make your purchase.
Sunscreens for combination skin...
If you intend to use your sunscreen just for the face area, it's a good idea to pick one that's specially formulated for the face. Choose one that's not too creamy: Rich creams might be too much for your combination skin. A sunblock lotion or lightweight cream offers enough moisturization for your drier areas without overwhelming your oilier T-zone.
A sunscreen spray is useful if you plan to use it on your body too, as they are great for covering hard-to-reach areas such as between your shoulder blades.
Another point to consider: Are you mainly concerned with specific parts of your face that are very prone to hyperpigmentation? For example, if your eye area is especially vulnerable to sun spots and freckles, then you might want to consider a sunscreen that comes in a stick form as SPF sticks offer precise application for small areas.
