Whether you never forget to wear sunscreen or could use a daily reminder, that’s only half the battle. We sometimes forget there’s an art to applying it, too; especially when it comes to sunscreen spray, which is undoubtedly the most time-efficient option. When you’re constantly on the move or simply prefer a no-fuss morning routine, a mist is way easier to apply than rubbing and blending in a lotion. The best sunscreen spray is also less likely to leave behind a white cast on the skin like most mineral-based options.
Still, the application is key. In the past, experts have told me that the amount of sunscreen needed to properly coat the body should fill a standard shot glass (and a teaspoon-worth for the face). And if you’re in a setting that leaves you prone to sweat or humidity, reapplication should be done every two hours. But that’s just for sunscreen lotion. If you’re using a spray, you’ll want to hold the applicator close to your skin for more than a couple seconds to get that same amount.
So while sunscreen spray is easy to use and carry in your bag on a busy day, remember that just a little won’t do. I’m not saying you should use the entire can in one day, but don’t skimp yourself either. (If you’re wearing makeup every day, ensure your skin is doubly protected with SPF-infused products.)
