I’m looking for sunscreen recommendations - specifically for outdoor activities (hiking, etc), but if you’ve got everyday sunscreen recs, I’ll take those too. I generally prefer mineral sunscreens and I’m in the US, but feel free to share whatever sunscreens you like and hopefully others will benefit also.

Bonus points if it doesn’t burn your eyes when you get really sweaty.

I use sunscreen all the time, especially during the summer. My go to is the high SPF Neutrogena. Seems to stay on through sweat and is kind to my eyes

I prefer Hawaiian Tropic Sheer Touch because it’s easy to apply, and doesn’t feel pasty or oily. But I’m taking note of these other suggestions.

Heliocare 360 by Cantabria Labs. Used Avéne, Vichy and LaRoche-Posay before but since discovering their Aerogel I haven’t looked back. Super smooth on the skin and doesn’t cake on my body hair and it doesn’t irritate the eyes. They have an oral supplement in capsule form to reduce skin damage and photoaging. Also they offer a mineral solution. I see that Walgreens carry their oral supplement, however their sunscreen products aren’t but maybe you can find a retailer that does?

This sounds like it would be a really good everyday option. I will look for it, thanks!
