This week I'm trying out the Biore Aqua Rich Watery Essence. Went on nicely and has not rubbed off my arms. Probably should have waited for the spots from the Athlizm to clear up, but I'm desperately looking for a suitable replacement as my favourite sunscreen I can only buy from Amazon, so there's shipping.
Biore I can buy locally, at shops or online; hence keen to try.
Next week I will be trying Elta MD SPF45.

I've read good things about Coola Full Spectrum 360 sun silk drops (can be mixed with other products). The big and interesting feature is that it helps block HEV light so there's protection from screen time too. I need all the protection I can get lol! I just wish they had larger size options.
Otherwise I'm finishing out my La Roche-Posay and Supergoop which are the OG sunscreen products for me.

So I have been using a new to me sunscreen: Tatcha Silken Pore Perfecting Sunscreen SPF 35 PA+++. I like this one because it does double duty as a sunscreen and a primer (and I like anything that allows me to skip a step). As a result, it works well under makeup (no pilling). There is no burning, even under the eyes. And it sets to a silky texture, neither oily nor dry. A very nice find.

I've been reading reviews of the Evy SPF 50 foam and am fascinated - has anyone tried it? https://www.spacenk.com/us/sun-tan/s...200021431.html
I'm currently using athlism or anessa if a heavy sun day, Skin Aqua UV Gold or Biore Watery Essence on 'normal' days, but since quarantine has let me FINALLY make some progress on getting rid of my melasma (combination of many chemical peels, hydroquinone, and alpha arbutin/transaxemic acid when not on the hq) I'm on the hunt again to see if there are new levels of protection for the summer. The Evy looks very very interesting.

However I may have found a winner with Dr Jart Everyday Sun Fluid. No slipping glasses, no burning eyes and no white cast like the Shiseido can leave. The true test will be during the summer. I just hate playing trial and error with new sunscreens because it's my skin at stake!

I have been using Raw Elements sunscreen for skin care in the hot South African sun (Yes, I have a dark complexion and use sunscreen). I love Raw elements natural ingredients and plastic free options. The product is not available in my country so I make sure to purchase it when I travel
