"One of the sunscreens that you guys wanted me to review probably 2 3 years ago that we've ended up making it a staple in our house is the Sun Bum Original SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion. I find this one to be perfect for this category. It's really easy to spread. It has that very nice lotiony texture. It's not greasy. It's very comfortable to wear all day. It is also water resistant, which is going to make it really good option for outdoor days or if you're going to be really active. The key ingredient is the avobenzone, the homosalate, and octisalate and vitamin E."
