Best sunscreens and spf moisturizers for sensitive skin

What makes a good sunscreen for sensitive skin

Sunscreens with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide help protect against UV rays while keeping redness and stinging low for sensitive skin, while formulas with shea oil, glycerin, or vitamin E may help hydrate and calm the skin.
