SAVIOURS Enjoy stress-free sunshine this season with these picks for head-to-toe protection, including mineral, oil-free and hydrating formulas By Lora Grady
FOR ON-THE-GO PROTECTION Toss this handy little stick into your purse or beach bag for SPF touch-ups throughout the day. Made with 21.6 per cent zinc oxide and vitamin E, this formula is suitable for sensitive skin, too. It leaves a dry finish without any white cast, and it’s water-resistant for up to 80 minutes. NEUTROGENA Mineral Ultra Sheer
Dry-Touch Face & Body Stick SPF 50, $17.99, at Shoppers Drug Mart.
FOR OIL-FREE COVERAGE Made with spirulina energy essence, this new formula visibly improves the look of wrinkles over time. It’s also oil-free and controls excess sebum, which makes it ideal for acne-prone skin, and contains moisturizing ingredients like hyaluronic acid. The result is a comfortable, matte finish. Bonus: It’s water resistant, too. SHISEIDO Urban Environment Oil-Free
Sunscreen SPF 42, $60, at Shiseido.ca.

FOR AN INSTANT GLOW Watermelon extracts, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid and aloe come together in this sunscreen for a sheer, blendable application. The fast-absorbing formula works to
visibly brighten skin, reducing the look of hyperpigmentation, and minimizes the appearance of pores. It also soothes and hydrates while providing antioxidant-rich protection against environmental aggressors. GLOW RECIPE Watermelon Glow
Sunscreen SPF 50, $45, at Sephora.
FOR BEACH BABES & SWIMMERS Protect your skin against UVA and UVB rays with this water-resistant, zinc-based mineral formula that’s perfect for a day at the beach. The continuous spray makes it easy to apply, and it’s safe for sensitive skin, since it’s hypoallergenic, fragrance-free and non-comedogenic. SUN BUM Mineral Sunscreen Spray Broad
Spectrum SPF 50, $24, at Well.ca.
FOR SENSITIVE SKIN Clinically shown to calm and soothe sensitive skin, this new formula from Burt’s Bees is formulated with a gentle blend of aloe, rice milk and honey. It protects your skin from harsh rays while working to reduce visible signs of redness and helping to restore the skin’s moisture barrier. BURT’S BEES SPF 30 Gentle Day Lotion,
