No. 3: Obagi Nu-Derm Healthy Skin Protection SPF 35, $37.60
TotalBeauty.com average reader rating: 9.5*
Why: Readers say "this sunscreen is fantastic. I have actually used many Obagi skin care products and haven't been happy with all of them. This one, however, is just marvelous. It really makes my skin feel fresh and moisturized while not making it feel greasy from the SPF." Another says, "I have tried over a hundred sunscreens due to my fair skin, which the sun loves to fry whenever I'm outdoors. I have worn embarrassingly large beach hats and floor length sarongs, but now I believe I have discovered the best protection on the market. Even The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends this sunscreen!" One woman likes how the sunscreen "goes on well and disappears into the skin," and "works well as a moisturizer before applying your makeup." Another reader calls it her "holy grail sunscreen," saying it "really helps with the redness after I use the Obagi routine in the AM."

I wasn't aware of the prevalence of the skin cancer deaths. That's a cancer we have some power over. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I will be using SPF moisturizer and bronzer on my face from now on!

Clinique's city block feels so nice on my skin and doesn't feel greasy at all.

Nice list! I burn very easily and have oily skin so these are all helpful to know about.

I have used many. Living in Scottsdale, Arizona you don't even think about putting it on you just do it. Sometimes I even have it on before I brush my teeth! Dork!

I loved the Clarins and Shiseido...HATED the Clinique sunblock. PTR is great too. Another one of my favorites is from La Roche Posay.

I have oily skin and am constantly on the search for a good mineral based sunscreen. The problem with the powder is the it can be inhaled during application, means you end up with zinc and titanium in your lungs which will then move into your bloodstream and your entire body. I am currently using John Masters Organics Natural Mineral spf 30. It is a little pricey but I like it.
