We all know that skipping sunscreen is a major beauty no-no, but we also understand that rubbing lotion over every inch of your body can be tiresome and a little too much. This is where spray-on sunscreens step in to save the day. These sunscreens are super easy to apply and can even help you reach difficult places like your back.
Whether you love baking under the sun, enjoy an outdoor adventure or prefer to hide under the shades, here are the best spray sunscreen to protect you from the harmful UV rays.
Spray Sunscreen vs Lotion Sunscreen
Sunscreen is without a doubt one of the most essential daily skin care routine that you simply cannot skip! But which is better? Spray-on sunscreen or lotion sunscreen?
Lotion sunscreen may provide more protection and contain less irritants in their ingredients. It is also commonly believed that lotion sunscreen provides better coverage. By rubbing it in with your hands, the sunscreen gets fully absorbed into your skin instead of just staying on top.
However, spray sunscreens are much easier to apply and takes less time with zero mess. These are much easier to use on fussy children who can’t wait to get out and play.
As you’ve expected, they are not as high-coverage as lotion, so remember to spray a decent amount and rub it into the skin for maximum protection. You may also want to keep an eye out on the ingredient list. Those with natural and non-irritant ingredients will work well with sensitive skin.
