I’m half Filipino and love this brand - it doesn’t leave a white opaqueness and my favorite way to apply is with the stick to my face, neck and hands. The cream is great for my chest, back and legs!

I keep 1 in the diaper bag, pool bag and my purse. The stick just makes it so easy to apply to my kids’ faces if we have an impromptu park visit or long walk. They know what it feels like and it’s not a battle to get sunscreen on them. Bonus - it wor...

Seriously, someone was thinking of the mom's when they made this one! It's SO easy to apply, leaves no white-smear (it's a gel formula) and makes me feel good that I actually remembered SPF for myself on a daily basis.

You can tell I love a sunscreen stick - this one is different because it COOLS when you apply it too. Especially nice on hot, humid days when thinking about reapplying makes you sweat - this stick makes it a treat, though!

I trust these the most for covering my kids’ bodies before swimming. I feel good about a thorough first application of Baby Bum before hitting the beach or swimming in the pool.

I know sprays are all the rage but I just don’t trust that it goes on evenly enough on my kids - so, I love this brand because it applies smoothly (no gunky residue left all between my fingers) and rubs in nicely for their skin.

This is what I buy my husband - he’s a no fuss dude so getting him to add sunscreen to his (barely-there!) routine was a whole conversation but this one makes it super easy 🙌🏽

The ultimate hack when putting sunscreen on little kid’s faces 🙌🏽 it helps actually get the sunscreen to sink in and if you make it a game like make-up they think it’s fun AND relaxing, just like a spa facial 🧖🏼‍♀️

Inevitably I forget sunscreen on myself after lathering the kids and this is all the relief I need. I keep it in the fridge for extra cooling power 😎

I love an after sun gel for instant relief but as my burn is soothed I like a lotion for moisturizing my healing skin and this is 10/10 🙌🏽
