If you struggle with acne, chances are you also struggle to find a sunscreen that doesn't muck up your pores. The solution has been under your nose the whole time: Elta MD SPF 41. It won't be winning a beauty pageant any time soon, but it is been recommended by many a dermatologist.

It's also one of New York-based cosmetic dermatologist Doris Day's favorite sun blocks. It's formulated for post-procedure skin -- so even super-sensitive skin can get sun protection without irritation. The chemical-free, fragrance-free, oil-free formula is made with transparent zinc oxide, meaning you can say goodbye to your days of pasty-white sunscreen glow.

Simzar also loves the Avène line -- he says it works for all skin types. The basic packaging doesn't give you any indication that the products are packed with luxe, soothing ingredients.

Avène Thermal Spring Water travels 40 years through the Cevennes Mountain aquifer before being bottled at the source. Simzar says that's why it's so potent and soothing. He also says that over 300 clinical studies have shown the skin-healing benefits of this spray -- it's used to treat everything from psoriasis to burns ("Which is why we love to use it after hair removal treatments," he adds).

It's preservative-free and contains soothing minerals like silicate to hydrate and soften skin.
