Lindsay Lohan has been one of our North Stars of glam since… well, probably Freaky Friday. After all, who can forget her piecey platinum highlights and kohl-rimmed eyes as the punky teen-slash-body-swapped mom from the hit 2003 Disney film? As if answering our childhood prayers, Lohan hit the red carpet in Los Angeles, California, last…
As a Jones Road Beauty fan (and a long-time fan of makeup artist and founder, Bobbi Brown), I was so excited to hear that the brand would be launching a facial SPF—and so was the rest of the internet. In fact, Jones Road Everyday Sunscreen might just be one of the most highly anticipated beauty…

Zinc oxide is the main ingredient in mineral sunscreens. It is a fine, white powder that is either synthetic or derived from the mineral zincite. Zinc oxide helps form a physical barrier on your skin to reflect and absorb the sun’s UVA and UVB rays. It is also used in other skincare products to help…
