7 of Our Favorite Sunscreens for Winter (Because Yes, You Still Need to Wear It Every Day)

Even though the sun doesn’t feel as warm in the fall and wintertime doesn’t mean UV isn’t affecting your skin. Your skin is susceptible to sun damage all year round, so it’s imperative to apply broad-spectrum sunscreen daily. If your go-to summer formula feels too greasy or heavy under your nourishing winter serums and creams, try one of the five sunscreens below that will fit perfectly into your winter skincare routine. 

La Roche-Posay Anthelios UV Correct SPF 70 Daily Face Sunscreen with Niacinamide

Sometimes colder weather can mean dull skin, which is why this sunscreen formula with niacinamide is our absolute favorite. It helps reduce visible signs of sun damage and works to even out skin tone, fine lines and rough skin texture.

 

CeraVe Hydrating Sunscreen Face Lotion SPF 30

Hydration plus sun protection? Yes, please! This mineral face lotion has SPF 30 and contains ceramides to lock in moisture. The formula is oil-free and non-comedogenic, so it won’t clog pores.

 

Vichy Liftactiv Peptide-C Sunscreen SPF 30

For sunscreen that promotes younger looking skin, opt for this formula that has peptides, vitamin c, and mineral-rich volcanic water. The combination helps improve the look of dullness, dark spots and wrinkles, all while protecting your skin from the sun’s UV. 

 

Black Girl Sunscreen SPF 30

This sunscreen contains jojoba and avocado oils to nourish and moisturize skin and dries completely clear, making it an excellent primer for makeup.
