Beauty Editors Agree: These 8 Sunscreens Are Elite

I love a mist formula for my body because it makes for effortless application and reapplication. This organic sunscreen contains antioxidant-rich ingredients including algae extract, green tea, and vitamin C, which work to hydrate and brighten the skin.

A sunscreen stick is a must-have for your travel bag. I love this one especially because you can wear it over makeup and it still blends in seamlessly. (Yep. My mind is blown, too.) This stick is also seriously high-tech—it has ion bonds and heat sensors that create an even stronger UV barrier when faced with summer elements such as heat, water, and humidity. To top it off, it's infused with licorice extract, which works to prevent wrinkles and dark spots.

This is the OG multitasking primer and SPF. It contains super-unique ingredients such as sea lavender and cocoa peptides that protect against UV rays from the sun and blue light from electronics (something I didn’t know I needed until now). It certainly delivers on its name—it leaves your complexion with the most gorgeous, glowy finish. I love to use the champagne and bronze shades, but there are also pearly-pink and deep-bronze shades if that’s more your style. Honestly, what more could you ask for?

This BB cream is an excellent multitasker—it’s a moisturizer, foundation, and sunscreen all in one. It comes in four shades that adapt to your individual skin tone for an undetectable, my-skin-but-better finish.

Skin feeling a little parched? This refreshing sunscreen has your back. As the name suggests, it’s like a glass of ice water for the skin. It has an impressive 30% hyaluronic acid and a potent plant extract called pentavitin, which leaves skin hydrated and dewy for up to 72 hours.

Hailey Bieber and Pamela Anderson love this sunscreen, so it obviously deserves a spot in your routine, too. It has my personal favorite skin-protecting ingredient, zinc, which makes it reef-friendly and ideal for sensitive skin types. It’s also enriched with vitamins, antioxidants, squalane, and chamomile for extra-soothing and hydrating effects.

If you’re looking for the perfect lightweight SPF, let me put you on to this gem from K-Beauty brand Innisfree. It’s super affordable but still has innovative ingredients such as hydrating green tea and soothing cica.

You already know the Inkey List is an affordable brand with an all-star lineup of products, and this silky-smooth SPF is another winner. It has a trio of hydrators (polyglutamic acid, glycerin, and squalane) that give a dewy finish with no white cast or pilling.
