Trial Run - NYTimes.com EACH summer brings new and supposedly improved sunscreens, but this year's really are quite different. With a set of the coming Food and Drug Administration regulations in mind, manufacturers have tweaked formulas and labels, and have even discontinued products, to comply. Words like "waterproof" and "sunblock," which could give a false sense of protection, will be banned. Originally scheduled for this month, these requirements won't take effect until December, but most new products already abide by them. Here are some possibilities for the sunny days ahead. Supergoop! SPF 30+ City Sunscreen Serum Thicker than a typical serum, this feels like a runny version of what you'd expect to wear at the beach. Still, it does the job without the common ingredient oxybenzone (the source of some health concerns) and doesn't irritate even hypersensitive skin. The serum will in part replace the brand's Sunscreen Swipes, all-over towelettes that accounted for nearly a third of its business but are now headed off the market as the F.D.A. is looking at disallowing SPF wipes entirely. ($42 for 1.7 ounces.) L'Oreal Paris Sublime Sun Advanced Sunscreen SPF 50 + Hydra Lotion Spray This spray's gold metal bottle has a luxurious feeling, even though it's also imprinted with "Drug Facts," in accordance with the F.D.A."s new rules. It's part of a new line from the brand, its first dedicated to skin protection. It is unclear if it's as highly water-resistant as it promises, but it has a pleasantly wispy texture that soaks into skin quickly. ($10.99 for 4.2 ounces.) Dermalogica Oil Free Matte SPF 30 For skin that veers toward breakouts, summertime's sweat-heavy, pore-blocking months can be the cruelest. This product aims to tackle that issue by mixing oil absorbers and purportedly anti-inflammatory green tea into sunscreen. It's a reworking of an earlier product, Oil Free Matte Block SPF 20, with an adjusted formula so it can be categorized as "broad spectrum" under the new rules. ($48 for 1.7 ounces.) Kiehl's Facial Fuel UV Guard SPF 50+ The F.D.A. is still deliberating on how to label SPF values higher than 50, so many products, like this one, are already using a proposed new rating of 50+. A few shaken-up drops of this thin white liquid appear to offer considerable coverage. It's designed for men, but the matte finish and hint of caffeine, intended to firm skin, may appeal to women, too. ($34 for 1.7 ounces.)
