If one of your priorities this summer is to get a tan that everyone will be jealous of, then you should follow the beauty advice that Kylie Jenner posted on social media: always use sunscreen, and if it’s a spray, even better! Protecting yourself from powerful UV rays is one of the most important steps to—safely—getting the tan you want, as it helps to protect skin and in many cases also nourishes and moisturizes it.
The beauty businesswoman doesn’t hesitate to say what every star already knows: sunscreen is a necessity. Our favorite celebs don’t leave home without some SPF, not only to get the ideal skin tone, but also to care for their skin, as exposure to the sun without protection is the number one cause of aging, according to Lidia Maroñas from the International Dermatological Clinic. Now, get your notepad ready so you can pick the best spray-on sunscreen for this season.
For those who prefer organic
The Classic Body Organic Sunscreen Spray from Coola ($25) is made from a combination of plant cells, seed and coconut oils, and a touch of peach flowers that guarantee not only effective SPF 70 protection but also nutrition for skin. An excellent option for anyone who wants glowing skin.
Oil-free protection
The Beach Defense Water + Sun Protection Spray by Neutrogena ($11.99) is oil free and promises to protect your skin from water and sun for 80 minutes. It also offers SPF 100, which is perfect for sensitive skin.
Powerful plums
The Resort Collection Sun Protection Mist Broad Spectrum Sunscreen by Amorepacific ($32) has SPF 30 and a combination of botanical infusions and oils, where plum extract plays a key role in complementing the protection with nutrition. This is essential to keep your skin from becoming red and dry.
Anti-photoaging
Great, long-lasting protection, these are the two main characteristics to look for in a good sunscreen. The Ultimate Sun Protection Spray by Shiseido ($40) promises both with SPF 50, in addition to being completely absorbed by your skin without leaving any oily or sticky finish.
It’s all about zinc
The Mineral Continuous Sunscreen Spray by Sun Bum ($17.99) is made from zinc oxide, which efficiently protects your skin, keeping it from becoming red and dehydrated. It is also designed for sunlight-sensitive skin.
The power of Australian botany
If you want to nourish your skin and you love natural ingredients, then you should keep your eye on the Botanical Natural Spray Sunscreen by Australian Gold ($15.99) with SPF 30. Kakadu plums, eucalyptus, and red algae are the main ingredients in this formula rich in antioxidants to rejuvenate your skin while you get the perfect tan and, of course, provide the necessary protection.
Vitamin C concentrate
Mandarin oranges, lemons and oranges are some of the ingredients in this spray that will without a doubt protect you from UV rays, filling your skin with vitamin C. The Play Antioxidant Body Mist by Supergoop ($21.00) with SPF 50 protection promises to give you a natural shine that will make you look radiant and hydrated. If you love these fruits, you can’t go wrong keeping this spray in your purse this summer.
For sensitive skins
Is your skin sensitive or very light? Then you need a product that will protect you from being exposed to the sun for too long. The Sheer Zinc Continuous Spray Sunscreen by Babo Botanicals ($21.99) combines the best of natural oils like jojoba and coconut with flower extracts like chamomile into one product to create a sunscreen that your skin will love that will also help you get a great tan.
All the benefits of aloe
To enjoy the sun during the summer, whether you’re at the pool, the beach, playing outside or exercising, you’ll always need some help to combat the negative effects of the star we all love. Sunscreen Care Oil-Free Lotion Spray by Clarins ($36) with SPF 15 protection not only promises to help you protect your skin, but it also helps you get a movie-star tan, while caring for your skin with aloe vera, which is known for its moisturizing and healing properties.
