IMAGE Skincare Prevention+ Spf 30 // Mad Hippie Facial SPF
If you are looking for the Best of the Best, Esthetician Approved Sunscreens, read on my friend. I used to DREAD having to wear sunscreen, because that likely meant 2 things….. oilier skin & breakouts! Several years ago, after trying DOZENS of sunscreens, I found 2 that blew me away. I’ve been recommending them to everyone ever since. Image Skincare SPF 30 and Mad Hippie Facial SPF. I love them both for very similar reasons. They are both great for all skin types, non greasy, fast absorbing, excellent ingredients, layer nicely with other skincare/makeup products & provide superior physical & mineral protection & will not make you break out. These are excellent for face & neck. Price point wise, I would recommend using a less expensive option for your body as that skin doesn’t require as much focused skincare ingredients. **I have linked some great SPF’s for body below in my Shop the Post Banner.
Application Tip: Always apply SPF as the last step of your skincare routine. Apply any makeup over top of it 😉
Why Zinc offers the BEST Sun Protection:
Zinc oxide gives you broad spectrum protection from UVB all the way through to UV-A1, meaning your skin is getting the best sun protection possible. Zinc oxide is a stable sunscreen ingredient that is much less likely than chemical ingredients to break down in the bottle or on your skin.
- Zinc oxide particles in sunscreen sit invisibly on the surface of your skin bouncing the UV rays off like balls bouncing off of a hard surface. There is no chemical reaction at your skin level as there is with chemical sunscreens.
