Gel vs Stick Sunscreens : Does the Type Matter?
4 weeks ago
When reapplying sunscreen, I use either gel-based or stick-based sunscreens, which have become very common nowadays. How much difference does it make which type I use?

The choice of sunscreen depends on your skin type. People with dry skin can go for cream or lotion formulations, while those with oily skin can use gel-based sunscreens because they won’t make the skin feel greasy and are less likely to cause acne breakouts.
Apart from gel and stick sunscreens, there are also powder sunscreens available in the market. These are mainly designed for professionals who need to go to work every day, wear makeup, and want a quick, convenient application.
Powder sunscreens act like a finishing face powder they provide a smooth, matte finish while still protecting your skin from the sun, making them very practical for daily use.
