Sensitive skin is no joke, especially when it’s exposed to the sun. There could be a variety of things that cause skin to be sensitive, including skin conditions like rosacea and eczema, certain medications that make skin photosensitive, procedures that leave skin delicate, and just plain old reactive skin. If you have sensitive skin, protecting it from the sun is essential, but not all sunscreens are up for the challenge. Some sunscreen formulas will further aggravate reactive skin, while other products’ level of protection might not be enough for sensitive skin. We gathered the best sunscreens for sensitive skin with non-irritating formulas and powerful protection.
