You’ve probably read it a thousand times: protecting your skin from the sun is the best way to keep it healthy, stave off early signs of aging like wrinkles, dark spots, and loss of firmness and, of course, keep skin cancer at bay. Applying sunscreen every single day at the end of your skincare routine (before makeup) is a great start—but reapplying every two hours is the key to keeping your skin protected. Sticks and sprays are the perfect allies when it comes to refreshing your UV protection, so grab one of these eight picks the next time you head outside.
