Next time you head outdoors, remember to slather on one of these winning SPFs. (Your skin will thank you later.)
What we said: "Need your makeup to stay put all day? You may have skipped sunblock and relied on your foundation's SPF 8 (or whatever). So makeup wearers hooray for Neutrogena's dry finish (from absorbing ingredient silica) -- it leaves only the tiniest traces on skin. You also get Superman-strength SPF with more longevity; Helioplex is a combo of UVA protectors that degrade slower than others. A winner." -- Beth Mayall-Traglia, Editor in Chief
What we said: "It makes lotioning up fairly easy; you just mist on and rub in. [It's] truly water- and sweat-proof, [has] broad-spectrum blockers and the basic ingredients to effectively fend off sunburn when reapplied every couple hours." -- TotalBeauty.com editorial team
What you said: "I have fair skin and tend to burn easily. I took this with me to Costa Rica. I spent seven days surfing and hiking and came back with a nice glow but no burn! I also use this on my kids because it's gentle and has very little odor." -- Rebecca_S
What you said: "I use this on my body if I am going to be out in the sun all day. I can still get some color through it and it smells wonderful." -- CuteAndFuzzy
