Their Multivitamin Bodyblock SPF 20 is a deep moisturizing formula infused with skin-nourishing vitamins and anti-oxidants. This silky smooth cream is also free of any artificial fragrances and colors, so it's suitable for sensitive skin.

Natural Sunscreens

People trying to live a more earth-friendly lifestyle usually try to switch their mainstream skincare products to alternative formulas that use natural ingredients. Not only are these natural products believed to be better for your body and the planet, they might also be more effective at protecting you from the sun, because they provide a barrier that guards against both UVA and UVB while most chemical-based sun products provide protection only against UVB rays.

One great thing about natural sun care products is that they're usually safe for children and babies. More often than not they're hypoallergenic and tear-free, so the whole family can enjoy a day at the beach without having to overload the beach tote with multiple bottles. Jason Naturals Family Natural Sunblock provides gentle sun protection and damage prevention for people of all ages with its skin-nourishing blend of green tea, vitamin E and shea butter.

If you're looking for a non-gooey, non-messy sun protection product that suits your active lifestyle, try Mission Fast-Drying Sunscreen SPF 30 + Spray (average price; $9.99).
