Sunscreen. You’ll use it, but that doesn’t mean you’ll like it, right? But maybe you just haven’t found the right one. In my teens and 20s, I admittedly reached for the same completely meh drugstore sunscreen year after simply because it did the job. But a really awesome sunscreen can actually be enjoyable to use. Don’t feel like shelling out big bucks on a product that might not be your perfect match? Let Sephora do the guess work for you with their limited edition Sun Safety Kit ($32), available in-store and online.
For the ninth year, Sephora has partnered with the Skin Cancer Foundation on a fantastic, handpicked set of sunscreens for your every need. From face, to body, to lips, to eyes (my personal new obsession), your whole body will be protected by using a range of formulas like lotion, balm, serum, and CC cream. There’s even a self-tanner loaded with SPF so you can fake a tan while staying safe from harmful UV rays.
Here’s the full list of the 16 deluxe samples that come encased in a handy pink travel bag:
AmorePacific Natural Protector SPF 30
Clarins UV Plus Anti-Pollution Broad Spectrum SPF 50
Clinique Moisture Surge CC Cream Broad Spectrum SPF 30 in Light Medium
Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare™ Dark Spot Sun Defense Broad Spectrum SPF 50 Sunscreen
Dr. Jart+ Premium Beauty Balm SPF 45
Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15
Josie Maran Cosmetics Argan Daily Moisturizer SPF 47
Korres Yoghurt Nourishing Fluid Veil Broad Spectrum SPF 30
Murad Invisiblur Perfecting Shield Broad Spectrum SPF 30
Ole Henriksen total truth eye crème SPF 15
Origins VitaZing Broad Spectrum SPF 15 Energy-Boosting Moisturizer with Mangosteen
Peter Thomas Roth Max Sheer All Day Moisture Defense® Lotion SPF 30
Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protection Cream SPF 50+ WetForce Broad Spectrum Water Resistant
St. Tropez One Night Only in Light-Medium
Supergoop! City Sunscreen Serum SPF 30
Vita Liberata Passion Flower & Argan Dry Oil Broad Spectrum SPF 50
Try them all (or if you’re nice you can share) and discover your new must-haves. I already knew I loved Shiseido, but I was psyched to have a purse-sized version. I also found new favorites in AmorePacific and Josie Maran. Also, $20 from the sale of each kit benefits the Skin Cancer Foundation to help with prevention, detection, and treatment. For me, this is a win-win!
