10 Best Sunscreens with skin care benefits to try


Sunscreens that are only meant to shield UV rays are now becoming a thing of the past as brands veer towards innovating an essential classic, giving it more benefits to eliminate the need for using additional products. Enter beauty sunscreens.

I think the concept of beauty sunscreens came to light because I believe more and more women are looking for ways to cut down on product usage in order to shorten their preparation time and minimize environmental footprint; and here we are!

Here are some of the beauty sunscreens I've used and will recommend; I'll share not only their SPF level, but also the beauty benefits you can get from them.

  1. Good list! I'm not noticing this Biore Anti-pollution sunscreen on Watsons or other supermarkets? Is this out in the market already? I am a constant user of Biore sunscreen (milk and whitening), so far no harmful effects on my face. :) And Ponds has a sunscreen product na din pala! :)

  7. One of my mistakes in life is that i didn't start taking care of my skin at an early age. I don't have a skincare routine then. It was only until i started reading blogs when i developed a habit of using skincare products and regularly applied moisturizers and sunscreen.
    Thanks for the list! I would want to try the one from Etude.
