I'm having a combination skin and I would like to have a good moisturizer with an spf. How high spf do I have to have? I'm 17 so my skin doesn't have wrinkles or liver spots. Oh and the moisturizer should be under 20 dollars, but of course you can recommend something more expensive if you like :)
It depends how long you plan on being out in the sun. I normally wear spf 15-20 when I am wearing a full face of makeup. If I'm going out with barely any makeup or none at all I wear something higher.

Cetaphil makes great moisturizers with SPF. You can easily find them in any drugstore or places like Wal Mart

They wear well under makeup too.

Neutrogena hands down is a good drugstore buy...can't go wrong with that one.

I agree with Shelley! Neutrogena is amazing and doesn't clog pores which is great.
