Our Favorite Everyday Sunscreens

If there’s one product we never skip, it’s sunscreen.

Daily SPF is the single most important step in preventing premature aging, pigmentation, and skin cancer. Whether you’re running errands, working near a window, or spending time outdoors, UV exposure happens every day.

Here are some of our favorite everyday sunscreens at Cortina Dermatology & Aesthetics.

What We Look for in a Great Daily Sunscreen

• Broad-spectrum protection (UVA + UVB)

• SPF 30 or higher

• Lightweight and comfortable for daily wear

• Non-comedogenic and suitable for your skin type

• Tinted options for added blue light and visible light protection

Mineral vs. Chemical Sunscreens

Mineral sunscreens use zinc oxide or titanium dioxide to sit on top of the skin and reflect UV rays. These are often ideal for sensitive or post-procedure skin.

Chemical sunscreens absorb UV rays and convert them to heat. They tend to feel lighter and layer easily under makeup.

Both are effective when applied correctly and consistently.

How Much to Apply

Most adults need about a nickel-sized amount for the face and a shot-glass amount for the body. Reapply every two hours when you are spending a lot of time outdoors.

Healthy, glowing skin always starts with protection.
