Question:
I have skin that's so dry it makes the Sahara desert look like a garden.
I've been using Paula's Choice sunscreens for dry skin, over
moisturizer, but it does leave a faint white cast. I'm looking for
something at least 30 SPF that gives both UVA/UVB protection, hopefully
invisible, and wonderful for dry skin. Also must not have any kind of
strong odor (I'm very sensitive to that). Does anyone know if such a
beast exists?
Answer:
I recommend VitaSkin "Advanced Sun Protection" by Banana Boat. It comes in
different strengths, all the way to spf 50. It's a drugstore item, under $10 for 6 oz. (I look for it at Big Lots where it costs $3.) Make sure you're buying the sunscreen; they also make various "lotions" with high spf
and the packaging is nearly identical.
