Supergoop!'s Glowscreen is my be-all, end-all sunscreen. This is one of the very few products on Earth that I would hoard if it were to ever go out of stock. It delivers the dreamiest, dewiest glow, all while protecting skin with SPF 40. Since it comes in four shades, it can be used on every skin tone, which is a big deal for sunscreen in general. My favorite shade is Dawn, but I also like the OG shade Sunrise on days when I want to look a bit more bronzed.

This is one of those products that I didn't expect to like quite as much as I do. Once I put it on, though, it was game over—this sunscreen delivers the most immaculate glow. It's not tinted, but it rubs into skin easily and looks incredible once it's on. It's a shimmer, but it looks more dewy than anything else on skin, so it's wearable for all occasions.

Hawaiian Tropic's new serum-sunscreen hybrid surprised me in the best way possible. It smells like classic Hawaiian Tropic lotion, so keep that in mind, but it didn't irritate my skin. Instead, the scent brings me back to the pool days of my youth every time I put it on. The sparkle on this one is super subtle, but it gives skin a healthy glow.
