Thank you for this important and informative post! Sunscreen has been on my mind a lot, too. My husband and I go back and forth about whether it’s better to use the chemical-y sunscreen that’s widely available here or just cover up the best we can.

I’m definitely going to check out some of these recommendations because I have yet to find a sunscreen I love.

Loved the sunscreen deep dive! As a fellow fair-skinned person, I've been super invested in all of the sunscreen talk that's been happening. When I was in Canada I got a spray sunscreen that was a very basic brand we have here (Banana Boat I think), but even that formula felt much better to me than what I've gotten in the US. I always wear sunscreen because I burn immediately if I don't, but it would be really nice to put some on and not feel oily and gross. Why can't we have nice things?

And thanks for the Big City, Little Friend shoutout! I immediately recognized that building when I saw it and I'm happy to see that it's still being painted regularly.
