Back in the day, applying full-body sunscreen was the worst part about beach days. There weren’t many options beyond the goopy, greasy, plaster-like formulas you were forced to apply (and re-apply) every two hours, regardless of your skin type or skin tone. Thankfully, those days are over, and the body sunscreen category is honestly better than ever.
Throughout our awards-testing process, the Well+Good team has slathered on sunscreen lotions that’ll moisturize just as well as your favorite body cream, along with glow-enhancing SPF serums that’ll make you shine and shimmer. Basically, if your body is going to be exposed to the sun, there’s no excuse for not using sunscreen this summer.
Our team tested the most popular body sunscreens on the market to crown seven winners, perfect for everyday use and sun-filled special occasions. From oils that’ll make you feel airbrushed to mists that smell like fancy perfume, protecting your skin has never felt this good.
