Sun Bum Original Sunscreen Spray SPF 50
This tropical-scented Sun Bum mist ranked highly in past GH Beauty Lab sunscreen testing, applying easily and leaving no chalky cast on skin. The formula came out on top for not creating a white residue and provided effective sunburn protection.
The “continuous and even” spray “covered my skin quickly,” two testers said. “I would definitely buy this,” another added. Good to know: Some users found that it left an oily finish on skin that took time to dissipate.
Banana Boat Light As Air Face Weightless Protection Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50
A perfect everday SPF that feels like (almost) nothing on skin and won’t leave behind a sticky film, Banana Boat’s lotion was a winner in GH Beauty Lab testing. It earned the highest marks for not creating a film on skin, being tacky, running into eyes or causing tearing and for its light, “tropical” scent.
Take note, though, that some users mentioned a slight sheen it left behind and two testers thought it caused bumps on their skin. Still, other testers loved it. “Easily absorbed into my skin, leaving no residue,” a tester raved. “I looked forward to putting it on in the morning,” another remarked.
