The Best and Worst Sunscreens

See which products will prevent your skin from looking lobster-like all summer long

Whether we like it or not, sunscreen is a must for all of us. And according to Heidi Waldorf, M.D. of Waldorf Dermatology & Laser Associates in Nanuet, NY, we need “an SPF of at least a 15 daily.” No one wants to spend all summer slathering on sunblock, but with these reader favorites maybe it wont seem like such a chore.

    Hi,
    Thank you for the post.Wearing a sunscreen really makes my skin look and feel too oily,since I am acne prone,but i still need to put it on since I dont want breakouts.I may try changing my brand of sunscreen till I get something that suits my skin.
