Dermalogica Dynamic Skin Recovery SPF 50, 7 mL - Estimated Value $13.13 (buy the 12 mL version for $22.50)

This one by Biossance is made with sugarcane-derived squalane along with zinc, and it absorbed into my skin without too much effort and didn't leave a white cast on my (admittedly very fair) skin. I am stubborn I haven't sworn off chemical sunscreens altogether (and instead am working on a trial and error to try and narrow it down more) however, because of this, mineral sunscreens are having a big moment in my life. In the past year, I have realized I have an allergy to certain chemical sunscreen filters, though I haven't figured out which ones specifically-I know sunscreen formulation plays a role. The Breakdown – What’s Inside This Limited Edition Box From Sephora Biossance Squalane + Zinc Sheer Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 PA+++, 20 mL - Estimated Value $12 (buy the 50 mL version for $30) I squirt a line of sunscreen down each of my three fingers, and that should be enough (or more) to give me enough product to provide the SPF listed by the brand. Also, did you know that to get full protection from the sun, you should be applying about a ¼ teaspoon’s worth for your face and neck (and one full ounce for your entire body)? I do my best to apply this amount every morning, and I stick with the three fingers method to apply. There's a QR code on the back of the product packaging that will take you to a link to learn more about the charity. Sephora will donate $25 from the sale of each kit to the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, with a minimum donation of $700,000. I am not sure if it's completely waterproof, but that's definitely the vibe it gives off.

Everything came packaged in this blue and pink bag that felt like it was made of a scuba-like material.
