Applying sunscreen isn’t a chore when Vacation products are in your rotation. Whether you’re poolside lounging or taking a much-needed respite at the beach, Vacation’s Chardonnay Oil doubles as SPF for your body and tanning oil so your fun in the sun won’t end with any painful burns.
“I absolutely love any sunscreen that doesn’t smell exactly like the typical pasty, thick globs we were slathered in as children. Vacation’s SPF oil smells just like summer and gives me the most gorgeous, post-su glow,” says Nerisha Penrose, ELLE.com Beauty Commerce Editor.

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen
Saunders has been buying Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch since high school and considers it a no-fail option in her summer sunscreen rotation. Not only does it provide an impressive SPF 70 coverage, but the water-resistant sunscreen is non-greasy, which is ideal for her oily skin.
“Growing up, I’d always purchase this cheap sunscreen before family trips to Disney and Universal Studios. The lotion comes out white and blends into the skin relatively easily without leaving behind a gray or purple tint. It also has a high SPF coverage that is helpful for anyone who doesn’t reapply often, like kids and teens,” she says.

EltaMD’s UV Stick Sunscreen is the ultimate multipurpose beauty product. Not only is it safe for all skin types and all ages (yes, even your young kids), but it can be applied to the face, body, and even scalp. Wait, scalp sunscreen? Yup, it’s a thing — and dermatologists love scalp sunscreen because we can experience sunburns on the delicate part of our heads.
We’re impressed that it’s water-resistant for up to 80 minutes, and contains hyaluronic acid for a hydration boost. Plus, since it’s shaped like a travel-friendly deodorant stick, it can easily fit into someone’s work bag for touchups throughout the day.

Trade in your usual foundation for this lightweight tinted sunscreen that blends seamlessly and provides a semi-matte finish to the skin. The non-greasy EltaMD sunscreen has a unique rosy tint that creates a luminous glow to dull complexions, hence the name. Pair with your favorite concealer to cover any imperfections, like dark circles, dark spots, and acne, and you’ll have a flawless no-makeup makeup effect.
Just remember, since there’s only one hue available, it’s likely the best bet for someone with fair to medium skin tones.
