Is Powder Sunscreen Effective?
The best sunscreen is the one you'll want to wear. Sunscreen lotions either leave a white cast or make your face greasy, but what about a setting powder with SPF? It usually comes with a built-in brush that allows you to reapply quickly if you're wearing makeup and it can help soak up oil and sweat.
Know More
Dermatologists suggest using powder sunscreen only if you're already wearing a layer of SPF lotion or cream. Otherwise, you'll need to apply an unusual amount of powder to achieve the same level of sun protection.
Feel Better
Look for a broad-spectrum sunscreen powder that has an SPF of 30 or higher. If you have sensitive skin, opt for a mineral formula that contains either zinc oxide or titanium dioxide.
