2007 Skin Care Awards

Best products for protection 

By Samantha Hallock March/April 2007

1
SkinCeuticals
Sport UV Defense SPF 45

"is an excellent sweat-proof sunscreen that I like to layer over a chemical sunscreen to get maximum protection," says Dr. Leslie Baumann.

($34)

 
2
Shiseido
Ultimate Sun Protection Lotion SPF 55

"contains a high concentration of micronized zinc oxide, the best broad spectrum, nonchemical ingredient," says Dr. Grace Pak. "It has nice staying power and is water-resistant."

($37)

 
3
Proderma
SPF 30+

"is nongreasy, dries quickly and discourages insect bites," says Dr. Neil Sadick. The sport-specific sun-screen contains transparent zinc oxide, which absorbs, blocks and scatters harmful UV rays.

($11)

 
4
Clarins
Sun Wrinkle Control Eye Contour Care SPF 30

"is my favorite under-eye sun cream," says Dr. Baumann. "It doesn't sting, and it repairs and protects the eye area, which is usually the first to show signs of age."

($25)

 
5
La Roche-Posay
Anthelios XL Creme Fondant SPF 50+

"has just arrived stateside," says Dr. Lisa Airan. "It contains Mexoryl, the ingredient that stops more UVA wavelength in the spectrum than any other UVA blocker."

($39)

 
6
Neutrogena
Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch SPF 55 with Helioplex

"is especially great for women with oily skin because the patented dry-touch formula absorbs excess oils and grease," says Dr. Heidi A. Waldorf.

($10)

Editor's Choice

Estée Lauder
Sun Performance Multi-Protection Sun Lotion SPF 30

prevents hyperpigmentation, a result of sun exposure; the anti-spot protection allows skin to tan while minimizing dark spots.

($22)
