SPF for your BFF (Beautiful Friendly Face)
As an Arizonan, I know a thing or two about sunscreen. Here’s my best tip: Wear it every day. Slather it on your face, ears and hands, minimum — any exposed skin. Here are my faves for any price point.
- Bargain: Grab this two-pack of SPF 50 Banana Boat spray sunscreen ($13.62) to keep your skin safe and your hands clean. It’s sweat- and water-resistant for up to 80 minutes and feels nice and light. It goes on super easily and even cools you off a little as you put it on. Pshhh! (Spray sound.)
- Midrange: On your face, any sunscreen is better than no sunscreen, but if you want to treat yourself, this cream from Coola ($25.84) is SPF 50, fragrance-free and has antioxidants. It feels a little like a serum when you first put it on, then it melts into your skin without a white cast.
- Splurge: Until you look at the price per ounce! Turns out, the main reason people don’t wear sunscreen is that greasy feeling — so Supergoop! invented one that absorbs super fast. Put this massive jug ($68, or $3.78 per fluid ounce) by the door to remind you to put it on — it’ll last you the whole summer.
