For normal to dry skin, I love the DermaQuest Skin Therapy ZinClear SPF 30 for a daily sunscreen.

For dry and mature skin, try the Topix Replenix Advanced Anti-Photoaging Complex SPF 45.

Patients with oily or acne prone skin love the powder sunscreen, like the Colorescience.

SunForgettable Powder SPF 30 - All Clear

This is a great invention, and I use it all the time. It comes in a small tube, with a self-contained brush. You just shake the powder down, and brush on the powder. The powder stays on your skin, and the high zinc and titanium content gives you great UVA and UVB blocking. Great for a humid climate (or oily skin), because it goes on dry and leaves no oily, greasy sheen. Expensive, but worth it. Layer it over a sunscreen lotion for maximum protection at altitude or in intense sun.

I love this product and use it a lot. It has over 18% zinc, so it gives great protection. But it goes on very light and clear, without the chalky look that many zinc sunscreens give you.This is a physical sunscreen, meaning that it contains no sunscreen chemicals. Excellent also for sensitive skin.
