Best sunscreen that protects

2026-02-17 02:03:05
Hello doctors. Could you please mention some sunscreens that are actually effective against tanning and protect against UV? I use Neutrogena but it's really oily for me and my skin is oily and acne prone so it feels super uncomfortable throughout the day. My doctor also recommended Tancare sunscreen, but the doctor I visited was shady so Im wondering if that works or is it just another "Dot and Key" sunscreen? I personally loved the sunscreen "Sunbless Oil Control Lotion" but it's rarely available anywhere. Please let me know what you prefer for oily, acne prone skin. Thank you!
