Vacation Classic Whip SPF: $22
Everyone should be wearing an SPF every day, but for those who love to be outside, sunscreen is even more critical. Sun protection might as well be fun, which is why we adore Vacation and their Classic Whip SPF. It squirts out of the bottle like whipped cream and goes on in a ridiculously light, creamy formula that blocks the sun's rays while smelling like a tropical dream, making anyone way less likely to skip this crucial daily step of their routine.
