BEST
OLAY Definity Correcting Protective Lotion with SPF 15 ($29.99 for 1.7 ounces) is a very good daily sunscreen that provides sufficient UVA protection from avobenzone. The base formula consists of several skin-friendly ingredients, including glycerin, niacinamide, acetyl glucosamine, panthenol, and safflower seed oil. It's a worthwhile, if not quite state-of-the-art formula (a wider array of antioxidants would have been preferred, especially given the price) for normal to dry skin. The mineral pigments provide a radiant finish that's best described as a subtle glow that works fine for daytime. Find It

WORST
CLINIQUE True Bronze Pressed Powder Bronzer ($23.50) has a dry, grainy texture and somewhat spotty, sheer application with shine. It isn't nearly as impressive as it should be, and is not worth consideringeven though the three tan shades are a balanced mix without too much red or copper.
