It’s that time again when everyone’s out enjoying the sun, with our minds on summer vacation mode (even if that means staycationing in your very own city). Now, before you head out to bask under the sun, don’t forget to pack the single most important skincare product: sunblock. We’ve rounded up a list of our top 10 sunscreens for you.
Not only for hot summer days, but meant to be applied all year round, sunscreen is a total must. Premature skin aging, wrinkles, and sun spots are some major effects of not applying this holy grail of a skincare product on a daily basis. Luckily, most sunscreen brands nowadays offer products that contain amazing ingredients that not only protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays, the pollution, and free radicals, but also nourish your skin from the inside out to give you that healthy, hydrated glow that everybody craves. Add any one of these products to your regimen, if you haven’t already!

8. JAN MARINI
Jan Marini believes in absolute effectivity plus wearability. A common reason as to why sunscreen is not worn daily is because it feels sticky or heavy on the face, it has a smell, or it affects and mixes with the make-up when applied onto the face. Fret no more, with its award-winning Marini Physical Protectant Broad Spectrum SPF 45 sunscreen, you can be assured of the highest standards for protection coupled with unmatched wearability – a win-win situation. This, together with ingredients like antioxidants, hydrators, and microscopic oil absorbing sponges that help to prevent oil buildup, will surely make it easier to put on sun protection.
