Best Daily Sunscreen For Sensitive Skin

I'm heading up there in years, I'm edging closer to 40. However, I have had an anti-aging skin care routine since I was about 23.

Every night I wash my face with a gentle cleanser and apply an anti-aging moisturizer before going to bed.

Everyone thought I was nuts, but it's paying off quite well now. 

One thing that I did not do on an everyday basis that we should all do, was wear sunscreen.

But it's not enough that I have fair skin. I have fair and sensitive skin.

I just couldn't stand the itchiness from the the sunscreen. And the smell. Oh, the smell. I would only apply sunscreen when I knew I was going to be out in the sun a lot that day. I just couldn't put up with the discomfort and the smell everyday.

When I hit 35, I knew I needed to amp up my anti-aging attack and went in search of daily sunscreens.

I tried some expensive brands, but learned the hard way that more expensive sunscreens do not mean you are buying a better product.

Through trial and error, I discovered Neutrogena Healthy Defense Liquid Moisturizer with sunscreen SPF 50.

Whether you're 20 or 50, it's never too late to start a skin care routine. But if you're leaving out sunscreen, you're actually doing damage to your skin.

I started out at 23 using anti-aging products because I didn't want to look old when I actually got old. Now I realize that by leaving out sunscreen I was setting myself up for more than wrinkles, I wasn't doing all I could to prevent skin cancer.

If you have oily skin, dry skin, fair or dark, develop your own skin care routine that is best for your skin type. Just be sure that your routine includes sunscreen.

I have been using Healthy Defense for a year now, and I have had no problems whatsoever with itchiness or a rash. It is very calming to my skin and I feel no irritation at all.

Now, on to the most important aspect. Sunscreen.

I had tried a more expensive product in the past and it did a horrible job. I got a really bad sunburn standing in the shade. I was skeptical when I tried Neutragena, I was afraid I'd have the same experience.

I am happy to say that Neutrogena Healthy Defense passed the test with flying colors. I have had several occasions when I have had to be outside, even in direct sunlight, for an extended period of time. I have not had the first burn, first hint of pink, or any signs of a tan

Using Neutrogena Healthy Defense is part of my daily morning routine now. Just as I wouldn't leave the house without brushing my teeth, I cannot imagine leaving the house without my sunscreen on.
