Facial sunscreen might have finally earned MVP status in our skincare routines, but what about the rest of the squad? From the back of your neck to the tops of your feet, several parts of the body are prone to tanning and sun damage if left unattended. But this where the best body SPFs step in as your skin’s personal bodyguard. Their only focus? Ensuring that UVA and UVB rays do not crash beyond the velvet rope. But wait, there’s more. Designed with hydrating agents, these playful formulas were made for easy application and touch-ups. As the sun burns bright this summer, glow brighter with this edit of the best daily body SPFs.
Spraying on sunscreen is genuinely one of life's small joys — and this one makes it even easier. A quick spritz covers more ground than you'd expect, dries down fast and gets you out the door without the usual faff of rubbing lotion into every inch of your body. The SPF 80 + PA++++ is the real headline here though — serious protection for days when the sun means business.
No frills, no fuss — just a body lotion that does exactly what it says. It absorbs quickly, skips the greasy finish and gets on with the job of protecting your skin from the sun. The classic Vaseline petroleum jelly woven into the formula adds a quietly familiar touch that feels like home. Sometimes the most straightforward option is also the best one.
If the navy blue tin of Nivea Crème has been a staple in your life since forever, this one will feel like a natural next step. Lightweight enough for daily wear, it brings SPF 50 PA++++ and a dose of Vitamin E to the table — keeping skin protected and hydrated whether you're heading to the beach or just navigating a long, sweaty commute. Nivea doing what Nivea does best.
Turmeric and saffron in a sunscreen sounds like an unusual combination — until you try it and realise it actually works. This Ayurveda-inspired formula brings SPF 30 protection to the mix while quietly working on brightening the skin with every use. It's the kind of product that feels rooted in something familiar while still doing something genuinely useful.
Most sunscreens protect your skin from future damage — this one goes a step further and works on what's already there. With 4% niacinamide and 1% kojic acid in the mix alongside SPF 50+ PA++++, it's actively brightening while it protects. A solid pick if you want your sunscreen to pull double duty.
If applying sunscreen feels like a chore, this one might just change your mind. The fruity-floral fragrance alone makes it worth reaching for — but beyond the lovely scent, it delivers SPF 35 PA+++, niacinamide for tackling tanning and aloe to keep skin comfortable for up to 72 hours. No white cast either, which is always a win.
Give it a shake, watch the formula come together and smooth it on — there's something oddly satisfying about this one's biphasic texture. It sinks in quickly, leaves no trace on the skin and delivers SPF 50 protection that holds up through long days in the sun. Lightweight but genuinely hardworking.
Whether your summer involves long hikes, early morning runs or simply not moving from the beach, this one keeps up. Hyaluronic acid keeps skin hydrated without any greasiness, while broad-spectrum SPF 50 handles UVA and UVB protection. The kind of sunscreen that works as hard as you do — or harder, if you're taking it easy.
