The HGs of Sunblock

After spending over six months reaseraching, hunting down, and trying out sunblocks, I literally dream about them. So, to make this knowledge at least a tad bit practical, I’m about to tell you which one is best for you!

Major skin conditions are not taken into concern, but I’ve picked out ones that should be good for all skintypes. Why? Well, I have dry skin, my sister has combination (and a paraben allergy) and my mum has very oily skin. That gives me pretty much the entire skincare range to subject to product testing!

I want a…

super-fabulous, cheap body sunscreen: $ Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch, in the SPF of your choice!


scent-free facial sunscreen for drier skin:
$$$ MAC Prep and Prime SPF50



gorgeously sheer (and mattifying!) face or body sunscreen:
$$Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protection Lotion SPF55 PA+++



paraben-free physical suncreen for the face:
$$$$ Clarins Day Screen SPF40



cheap paraben-free physical sunscreen for face and body:
$ Neutrogena Pure and Free SPF60 (PureScreen; not recommended over NC25ish)

Rest assured, these will all work for your skin unless otherwise noted or your skin problem is bad enough you’re seeing a derm. In terms of pricing, I’ve worked out everything to the cost-per-ounce and taken it into consideration :) And, these are all SPF40 (or more!)

The “SPF” links lead to product pages and the “xxbrandxx” links lead to my reviews, if I’ve reviewed them. (They will all have links, eventually!)

And lastly…


If price was no object, I’d use… Clarins Day Screen
But reasonably, I’d use… Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protection (for my face) and Neutrogena PureScreen (for my face and/or body)
And, on a budget, I’d use… Neutrogena PureScreen (or Ultra Sheer, if you have a darker skintone.)
