Here Comes The Sun
Chemical-free sunscreen is a hot topic (no pun intended) and GOOP has a number of all natural ones that I want to try. I’m, also, on the hunt for a lightweight, tinted SPF and will test drive Beautycounter’s Dew Skin. Tbc.

I look forward to your Dew Skin review. I use this website every year to chose a sunscreen. I’ve always had good luck with their suggestions. http://www.ewg.org/sunscreen/
Happy Summer!
I’d like to suggest Sun Love by AnnMarie Gianni – a great tinted sunscreen and Josh Rosebrook – tinted or not. They both work very well for my sensitive skin. Good luck!
Babo is one of the sunscreens I use. I’m going to look at the website that MaryB just posted because I’m looking for a spray as well.
I ordered Beauty counter face makeup and love it …
I love all of Beautycounter’s chemical free products. Fyi your BC dew skin link goes to Goop.
Goop, for the most part, has some interesting info in their online magazine; however, after ordering a top through the Goop shop (which I ultimately returned), I will not order anything from them, again. The returns process was complicated (no return label is included with the order to make it easy), they didn’t respond to my emails, and it took 2 weeks after receiving my returned item for them to process the refund. The Goop site claims that returns are credited within 48 hours, but this was not the case. Never again.
Beautycounter Dew Skin is fabulous! They also have a tinted oil that deposits a bronze shimmer. All their products are superb!
Thought I would throw in my two cents- the Ursa Major brand of sunscreen I ordered from GOOP was awful. Streaky, with the dreaded white cast- I couldn’t blend it in at all. Wasn’t for me- granted I am 49 with very dry skin. I need something more moisturizing.
If you like facial oils I’d suggest Josie Maran. It’s argon oil based and gives all day moisture. Gives a great glow like face oils do.
