Which Sunscreen is Right for You?
Though you no doubt wear sunscreen year-round (right?), it's especially important to wear it during the spring and summer when you're spending more time outside. But how do you know which one is best for your skin? The key might be in the active ingredients.
The two most common ingredients are avobenzone and either zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Avobenzone actually absorbs the sun's rays and prevents them from damaging the skin.
