This sunscreen body lotion is quite nice.
Style: Piña Colada
This sunscreen body lotion seems to work well. SPF 30 is the highest I could find with moisturizing capabilities. The smell is a bit overwhelming when you first put it on but it then goes away... so why the added scent. I wish it were SPF 50 and unscented. Otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

I freaking love this sunscreen, not only is the smell divine, but a little goes a long way. It doesn’t leave a greasy feeling or residue.

Solid Option for a Sunscreen Spray! Nice Even Mist!
Item Package Quantity: 1
I’ve been using the Naked Sundays Hydrating Glow Mist SPF 50+ and overall I’m really impressed. One thing I was a little concerned about at first is that it does contain alcohol, so I expected it might be drying. Surprisingly, it hasn’t dried my skin out the way other similar products have, which is a big plus for me.
The scent is pleasant and not overpowering. It doesn’t have that harsh sunscreen smell that some sprays do, so it’s easy to reapply throughout the day without feeling like you’re coating yourself in fragrance.
In terms of finish, it’s not completely non greasy, but it’s also not overly heavy. I would call it slightly greasy, but noticeably less so than most sunscreen sprays I’ve tried. It gives a bit of a glow without feeling suffocating on the skin.
One of my favorite things about this product is the spray itself. The mist is very fine and even, which makes application quick and easy without leaving blotchy spots.
Overall, it’s a solid option if you want a convenient SPF mist that feels lighter than most, smells good, and doesn’t leave your skin feeling dried out.

Glowing face with sun protection. No fuss, no muss!
Item Package Quantity: 1
Wow, I love this stuff. It does make your skin hydrated and glow with health while protecting it from the sun. No shiny oil, just glow, and best of all, no need to mess up your makeup reapplying sunscreen. You can use it to set your makeup for extra protection (I still use sunscreen under makeup). The mist comes out so fine and even, no drips or glob. The scent is light and fades quickly. The best I've dried out of all the other brands.
