Summer sunscreen 😌✨

These two sunscreens have been my favorite this summer! Both of these I’ve gotten in my Ipsy boxes so I’ve yet to pay for them myself!

The Saint Jane sunscreen is very lightweight and has a nice scent to it. It has SPF 30! This one is my go to when I wear a full face of makeup.

The Grown Alchemist is more on the heavy side but has no white cast. This one is my go to for everyday because it’s also moisturizing. This one also has an SPF 30. I got this an Ipsy box but I’m definitely buying once I run out.

One con about the Grown Alchemist though, if you sweat you can kind of see the white cast which I’m not a big fan 😅

What sunscreens does everyone else use/recommend?

... Read moreAs summer heats up, choosing the right sunscreen is essential for both skin health and comfort. The Saint Jane sunscreen is celebrated for its lightweight formula, making it ideal for layering under makeup while providing adequate SPF 30 protection. Its pleasant scent enhances the experience, making it a favorite for makeup wearers seeking a glow without a heavy feel. On the other hand, the Grown Alchemist sunscreen offers a more substantial feel but ensures no white cast, attracting those looking for deep hydration in a daily sunscreen. Despite its heavier texture, it's effective at moisturizing the skin, serving as a perfect base for everyday use. However, it’s worth noting that excessive sweating can reveal a slight white cast, which might deter some users. When considering your summer skincare routine, it's essential to consider factors like texture, scent, and sweat resistance. Look for sunscreens that match your lifestyle — whether you're lounging by the pool or in a city bustling with activity. Remember to apply sunscreen generously and reapply every two hours or after swimming to keep your skin protected. What sunscreens do you swear by during the summer months? Let's share our recommendations!

Yes, this is best practice of both worlds with a SPF of 50! There is Zinc that provides that restorative property for the skin barrier! The chemical sunscreen is beneficial to help the product easily absorb into the skin! @Lemon8 Beauty #beautyhaul #lemon8challenge #lemon8beautycre
