Say Goodbye to Sunburns With These 10 Best Sunscreens for Men!

Do You Think You can avoid using sunscreen this spring and summer? Wrong, completely wrong. Instead of roaming around town, you’re stuck in your workplace. UV rays may pass through your workplace window and inflict just as much harm—and don’t even get us started on the additional skin damage caused by blue light from your computer. UVA rays cause skin aging and cancer all year round. Period.

10 of the Best Sunscreens for Men

Sunscreen is the one grooming procedure that you should never omit in the morning. There are numerous misconceptions about sunscreen. You may believe that you are secure from UV exposure if it is cloudy or if you plan to spend the day indoors, but this is a grave miscalculation.

We’ve compiled a list of the best sunscreens for men after reviewing data from our most recent round of sunscreen testing, which included more than 250 consumer testers, and researching sunscreen designed with the grooming routines of males in mind.

1. Essentials Face + Body Sunscreen SPF 50

$35.00

This SPF was the winner of the most recent round of sunscreen testing by Good Housekeeping. The application and skin-feel were praised by both testers and online reviewers, with one claiming it was “not greasy, more like a moisturizer.”

We liked how this chemical SPF has an 80-minute water resistance, making it an excellent beach companion. Despite the fact that the bottle is more expensive than some other alternatives, the price per ounce of product is similar to many drugstore sunscreens.

2. Matte Effect Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50

$13.99

Some males are turned off by the greasy appearance of freshly applied sunscreen or moisturizer, which is why we adore this SPF from Hawaiian Tropic. It is gentle on skin, does not leave a white residue, and imparts a matte texture that gives the appearance of wearing nothing. However, the mattifying effect comes at the expense of a lack of hydration, so you will need to use a hydrating emollient underneath.

3. Anthelios Melt-in Milk Body & Face Sunscreen Lotion SPF 100

$26.99

It can be difficult to tell from the bottle alone whether a sunscreen will leave a white cast on the skin after application, making it difficult to find the best sunscreen for brown skin. Fortunately, our vast tester community enables us to comprehend what functions best for a variety of complexion tones. This SPF received high ratings from Latinx, Black, and Asian GH Beauty Lab evaluators for not leaving a white residue after application.

4. Oh My Bod! Body Sunscreen with SPF50

$18.00

Consumer testers scored this Everyday Humans sunscreen highly for not irritating the skin or eyes, making it an excellent choice for guys with sensitive skin. It also contains skincare elements including glycerin and hyaluronic acid, which add to the smooth texture. However, two testers reported a small, short-lived chemical odour upon applying the product, so people sensitive to odors may be put off.

5. Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream Moisturizer SPF 30

$36.99

This Olay moisturizer-sunscreen combo is a Good Housekeeping Seal winner and category leader. According to in-lab Corneometer studies, this moisturizer increased skin moisture by 31%, which is more than any other SPF 30 product examined by the Lab.

6. Mineral Sunscreen Face Gel-Lotion SPF 30

$15.37

According to GH evaluators, this sunscreen performed well in recent tests for not making skin greasy and not causing new acne.

The formula outperformed others in its ability to leave skin matte without causing irritation, making it an excellent choice for acne-prone skin types.

7. SPF 50 Continuous Mist Sunscreen

$32.00

Hampton Sun has achieved this delicate balance with this sunscreen, which received top marks for convenience of application in the Beauty Lab’s most recent testing. Additionally, consumer evaluators observed that it does not impart a white residue or transfer to fabric. However, some evaluators found that it left their skin feeling sticky and that the fragrance was overpowering, with one comparing it to infant powder.

8. Ultimate Sun Protector Lotion SPF 50+

$50.00

10 Best Sunscreens for men's

“The silky feel of the product after application!” One GH tester stated, “It felt luxurious and more like a moisturizer than a sunscreen!” The solution tied for first place in terms of not leaving skin feeling dry and efficiently washing off at the end of the day. We were especially impressed by the fact that it did not leave a white cast.

9. Beach Defense Water-Resistant Sunscreen Stick SPF 50+

$10.69

We enjoy the ease of use of Neutrogena’s stick sunscreen, which makes sun protection as simple as a few swipes. We like how this product can be used on both the face and the body and that it is water-resistant for up to 80 minutes. Despite the fact that the Lab did not test this particular composition with our tester panel, we were satisfied with the high SPF stick shape and the 80-minute water resistance.

10. Sheer Mineral Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50

$18.50

Babo Botanicals’ mineral SPF scored good ratings for application, rinse-off, and garment transfer in the most recent round of sunscreen testing at the GH Beauty Lab. Testers liked the formula’s natural components and how easy it was to apply, however, some said the sticky texture took some getting accustomed to.
