Spring is here, and summer is quickly approaching. The sun is shining ever so brightly. Despite loving the sun, it is our responsibility to protect ourselves from UVA and UVB rays. The best way to do this is to use a good quality sunscreen. Sunscreen is a very vital and important beauty essential, as it not only benefits how you reflect today, but your future too. Sunscreens with lower SPFs tend to be used on the face, more so on the body, as the face contains pigments that are much different than the rest of the body. I have decided to narrow down the numerous sunscreens with an SPF of 15 and under, in the beauty world, to only the 10 best.
10. Supre Hempz Sunscreen Tanning Lotion. If you haven’t tried any Hempz lotion, you are missing out. Most of the time Hempz products are available at your nearest Salon or Spa and they are extremely affordable. One of the best sunscreens of 2011 is definitely Hempz Sunscreen Tanning Lotion with SPF 15. This sunscreen is water resistant, so if you are thinking of taking a dip in the pool this Summer, you are going to love this sunscreen even more. Supre’s Hempz Sunscreen Tanning lotion possesses an SPF of 15. It is not only paraben-free, it is free of harsh oils that create a greasy finish. If you are not into fruity scents, you will appreciate this sunscreen; it is more of a sweet floral with musky undertones. You get 5 ounces of product for the bargain price of just $10.95. Most of the time this is available at your nearest beauty or tanning salon, however; you can purchase it at lotionsgalore.com. I absolutely love Hempz lotions, as they are not only inexpensive, but highly effective. If you are looking to use a great sunscreen that possesses an SPF of 15 or lower, this is one to buy.
9. Clean Start by Dermalogica Welcome Matte with SPF 15. Life is what you make of it, as life is all about protecting those things that matter most. One of those things is your skin. To love the skin you are in, you have to do what you can to protect it. One of the best ways to protect your skin is by using Clean Start by Dermalogica Welcome Matte with SPF 15.

Not only does this sunscreen soften the skin, as it hydrates and tightens in the skin, it works prevent the skin from any signs of aging, as it modestly protects it. Although this high-end sunscreen was designed for the body, when I applied this to my face, I noticed that, it worked relatively well. You get 8.3 oz. of product. This product is very high-end, yet luxurious and it costs $100.
