Random's Sunscreen Recommendations
Disclaimer​
Here's a list of sunscreen products I'm aware of and why I would or wouldn't recommend them. This list is for sunscreen products (a product's primary purpose to block UV) and not other beauty products that contains SPF in them.

To clarify, this list is mainly done based off of their accessibility to Americans. I'm not sure how you can access these products if you live outside of America. Most products you can get in either Walmart, Target, Sephora or Ulta Beauty.

I would also recommend Purito SPF 50 PA++++ sunscreen as well, it’s not formulated with endochrine disrupting chemicals (affects your hormones for those whose don’t know). Great thread as always.
 
I found a bottle of supergoop lying around jfl, my mom apparently used to use it back in the day. Was actually rly good, didn't flake or leave a cast at all, it did make me break out unfortunately
