If you’re Latina, chances are you grew up with your mamá chasing the sun to enhance her bronze skin. Sadly, using sunscreen on a daily basis amongst the Latino community is not a norm, or apart of many Latina’s beauty routines.

According to The Skin Cancer Foundation, women of color are less susceptible to UV damage thanks to the greater amounts of melanin, but they are still at risk for developing skin cancer from UV damage. We're here to help! We understand buying suncare products for darker skin tones can be an unpleasant experience due to the ash-like case some formulas provide. That’s why we’ve rounded up the best sunscreen products for Latinas with darker skin, and different skin types that actually work.
