...because you don’t want you skin to be as red as your blush at the end of the day.

Promising review: "I absolutely love Medicube sunscreen! From the moment I applied it, it felt incredibly lightweight and silky, almost like a soft veil melting into my skin. It leaves behind a beautiful, dewy glow that makes my complexion look fresh and radiant — without even a hint of white cast. It absorbs quickly, leaving my skin feeling smooth and hydrated, and it layers perfectly under makeup without pilling or feeling heavy." —Sapphire Tilly

Get it from Amazon for $18.90 (also available in a dewy version).

Promising review: "It provides incredible SPF 50+ protection and is packed with black rice extract, leaving my skin feeling deeply hydrated and calm all day. It doesn't sting my eyes, layers flawlessly under makeup without pilling, and doesn't leave a harsh white cast." —Mariem

Promising review: "This is hands-down the best one I've found. Even though the formula is thicker when you first dispense it, it spreads effortlessly and feels surprisingly lightweight once applied. It absorbs beautifully without leaving my skin feeling heavy, sticky, or greasy. What really sets this sunscreen apart is how well it works for sensitive, acne-prone skin. Nearly every sunscreen I've tried has caused breakouts, but this is the only one that consistently keeps my skin clear. It also doesn't have a strong fragrance, which is a huge plus since scented products tend to irritate my skin. I wear sunscreen every single day because I have rosacea, and UV exposure is one of my biggest triggers. This has become an essential part of my routine because it helps protect my skin from sun-induced flare-ups while feeling comfortable enough to wear all day. It layers well under makeup and doesn't leave a shiny finish, so my skin looks natural instead of oily." —Brenda

Most reviewers say that this doesn't leave a white cast, but a few have experienced it. Reviewers say that as long as you rub it in well, it won't be noticeable! Btw, this is oxybenzone- and octinoxate-free as well as fragrance-free.

Promising review: "This is a great cream for pool day! Doesn’t let you burn at all on the water. Soaks right in after it dries. It can be layered with makeup, no problem. Does not cause acne, and I have terrible acne-prone skin. No scent. The lotion’s white color disappeared after massaging it into the face for just a second. Doesn’t look chalky or anything like some lotions can. My go-to this summer." —Scully RN

Get it from Amazon for $20.97+ (available in two sizes). 

Promising review: "I absolutely love this sunscreen! It’s lightweight, blends in easily, and doesn’t leave a white cast. It feels comfortable on my skin, works great under makeup, and keeps my face protected without feeling greasy. I’ll definitely keep repurchasing it!" —Dulce Nieves

Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "I’ve been using Abib sunscreen for a few weeks and really like it. The texture is lightweight and smooth, and it absorbs quickly without leaving a white cast. It feels comfortable on my skin all day and doesn’t feel greasy or sticky. It works well under makeup and provides good sun protection. My skin stays hydrated, and I haven’t experienced any irritation or breakouts. Overall, this is a great sunscreen for everyday use, especially for sensitive skin. I would definitely purchase it again." —Annie Anie

Get it from Amazon for $18.90 (also available in a glowing version and a gel formula).

Promising review: "I absolutely love this sunscreen! It feels lightweight and comfortable on my skin and doesn’t leave that heavy, greasy feeling that many facial sunscreens do. It blends in beautifully without leaving a noticeable white cast, and I love that it’s made for blemish-prone and oily skin. It also wears really well under makeup and doesn’t make my face feel clogged or overly shiny throughout the day. The added niacinamide is a huge plus, and I love knowing I’m getting SPF 50 protection while also using something that feels like skincare. Definitely one I’ll continue repurchasing!" —Vanessa H

Get it on Amazon for $23+ (available in three sizes, three tinted shades, and a blemish-prone version).

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Natalie Brown is a proud member of the Supergoop fan club: 

"I've been using this sunscreen at least once daily since my mom gifted it to me two Christmases ago, and have every intention to keep using it for years. A dime-size amount covers my entire face, because it's translucent, it leaves absolutely no white cast, and 10 minutes after putting it on, my face just feels like I applied a little bit of a nice moisturizer or makeup primer, not anything that's grease-central, like sunscreen usually is. After several years of stubbornly trying (and failing) to find a decent, oily-skin-friendly, non-greasy drugstore option, I've caved to this pricier kind because literally none of the six or seven other options I tried even compared to this.  

Every time I've worn makeup since I got it, I've been impressed by the way my matte foundation glides over it, looks with it, and lasts with it. You can see the texture and color in the photo above; it really does go on completely clear. And it's water- and sweat resistant for 40 minutes!" 

Promising review: "Unfortunately, this is very much worth the hype. While I hate to pay this much for sunscreen, this is the only facial sunscreen I will be buying from here on out. No white cast, no burning eyes, not at all greasy, and it sits beautifully under makeup. Gives a soft matte finish." —Kevans727

Get it from Sephora or Amazon for $19+ (available in three sizes).

Promising review: "I try to wear sunscreen regularly, but most leave my skin shiny, greasy, or cause breakouts. I'm so happy I found this product! I love the tint, the velvet feel, and how my makeup goes on over it. It's worth every penny, taking care of my skin while looking good." —MLM

Get it from Amazon for $40 (available in two shades and in an untinted version).

Promising review: "If you struggle with oily skin, this product is for you! When I tell you I have tried so many brands, this one makes my skin feel so light and not sticky, which is the worst when applying sunscreen. I love that I can then put my makeup over it, and it blends very nicely. I am a true fan! Will keep buying!" —maria carolina baldivieso

Promising reviews: "I hate that I love this sunscreen so much. It’s expensive but so worth it. It’s the first sunscreen that actually doesn’t break me out and leaves a beautiful base for makeup. I’ve tried numerous different types of sunscreen but this one takes the cake." —Mande8913

"I think it’s the best sunscreen at Sephora. Yes, it’s expensive, but oh so worth it! It sits perfectly under makeup, does not pill, and doesn’t leave any white cast on my medium brown skin, which is pretty rare at Sephora or drugstore." —KoliK

Get it from Amazon or Sephora (available in two sizes) for $22+.

Promising review: "Wow! Works fantastically on my post-surgical hypersensitive skin! I use this under my foundation, and it turns out to be an EXCELLENT makeup primer! It smooths [the appearance of] lines and wrinkles! This was the first time in a long time that I was able to wear my makeup all day without redness and rashes occurring! I did not expect such great performance from a tinted sunscreen, but this stuff really delivers!" —Tracey L.

Get it from Amazon for $44 (available in two shades).

Promising review: "This is by far the best SPF I have ever used.  It goes on so smoothly and melts right into my skin, giving it a healthy nourished glow.  There’s no scent or white cast.  It’s a beautiful formula and well worth the cost." —LaurenA1977

"I love the way this sunscreen layers under makeup — no pilling and very hydrating!" —msreedreads

Get it from Amazon or Sephora for $22+ (available in three sizes).

Promising review: "I’ve tried many facial sunscreens over the years, but most felt greasy and often caused breakouts. My dermatologist recommended Biore UV Aqua Rich Moisturizer SPF 50, and it has been a game changer. The formula is incredibly lightweight and goes on more like a moisturizer than a sunscreen. It absorbs quickly, doesn’t leave my skin feeling oily, and has never caused blemishes. It also layers beautifully under makeup without pilling or affecting the finish. Most importantly, it has provided excellent sun protection while keeping my skin comfortable all day. If you’re looking for a high-SPF facial sunscreen that feels weightless and works well under makeup, I highly recommend giving this one a try." —Janny

Promising review: "Perfect for daily wear. I apply it every day with no sunburn, and it works beautifully under makeup!" —Co
