5 Things to Know About Spray Sunscreen

Spray sunscreen works if you apply enough and rub it in. Most people underapply because they can’t see how much they’re getting.

You need to spray until the skin looks wet. A quick mist leaves bare patches and a false sense of security.

Rub spray sunscreen in like lotion after applying. This ensures even coverage and prevents missed spots.

Lotion is harder to mess up because you can feel the coverage. It’s a more reliable choice for kids or quick reapplication.

Don’t trust a light cloud of spray to protect you. Be thorough, or stick with lotion to avoid sunburn.
