How to choose a daily sunscreen

Texture, filters and finish: a calm guide to finding the SPF you will actually wear.

How to choose a daily sunscreen

The best sunscreen is the one you enjoy applying every morning. Korean and Japanese formulas have made that far easier, with textures closer to serums than to traditional creams.

Look for broad-spectrum protection

SPF measures UVB protection. For UVA protection, look for PA++++ or a broad-spectrum label.

Match the finish to your skin

Oily skin often prefers gel or fluid textures with a soft matte finish. Dry skin benefits from creamier formulas with added hydration.

Apply enough

Around two finger-lengths for the face and neck. Reapply every two hours when outdoors.
