Our partners at the Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty Lab tested the best sunscreens and SPFs and consulted top dermatologists to find the best sunblock to keep your skin protected, healthy and youthful all year long.
For this test, chemists evaluated 61 body sunscreens and surveyed over 5,500 people in a consumer panel. Based on findings, GH chose products with different active ingredients (chemical, mineral and pure zinc oxide formulas), along with different forms: lightweight lotions, easy-to-use sunscreen sprays and gentle formulas suitable for sensitive skin and kids.
