10 Products That Take the Chore out of Reapplying Sunscreen

Avoid the sun, they tell us. Don’t overdo it, they warn. With each passing day, the well-documented damaging power of UV exposure builds a stronger case for staying indoors, but how are we supposed to ignore summer’s siren call? “I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as . . . sunshine by staying in the house,” Nathaniel Hawthorne journaled in 1824. It’s a sentiment that, nearly two centuries later, still rings true, which is why beauty brands have developed more inventive ways than ever to keep our bodies protected from head to toe. Rather than stopping in your tracks mid-sail to smear multiple full-body applications of zinc oxide on your skin, simply dabbing highlighter on the high planes of the face or taming flyaway strands could re-establish your necessary SPF shield.

When your UV-monitoring patch reminds you to reapply (that’s every two hours), a few mists of Shiseido’s shockingly easy-to-apply SPF 50 spray will keep your shoulders, knees, ears, and everything in between protected. Perricone MD’s hydrating rose-tinted lip gloss is loaded with SPF to cover the area so often forgotten in the sun. And to warm your complexion without the help of a melanin surge, tinted moisturizer and mineral brush-on bronzer give a faux, sun-kissed glow while acting as a barrier for the harmful real thing. From a sunblock-cum–hair mask to a UV-protective (and color-fade-proof) clear topcoat, here, 10 inventive products that take the chore out of reapplying sunscreen.
