Thanks for offering to pick it up, I'll check for it at the store next time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2607125 Fri, 19 Aug 2016 10:39:36 +0000 SweetiePie 2607125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MoonMoon: I was in a pharmacy today and saw this! Looks like it's even lighter.<br /> If you are interested but can't find it and want me to grab one for you let me know! I don't mind sending it. </p> [attach=3764/16/oc5y61.450x600.image.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2599696 Fri, 05 Aug 2016 22:45:40 +0000 MoonMoon 2599696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: used it today for a beach trip, loved it! It's what I look for in a sunblock, it works and actually feels good to put on, and the scent wasn't very strong when out and about, and I love the iridescence. Thanks for the recommendation! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2599000 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 20:38:40 +0000 SweetiePie 2599000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MoonMoon: glad you like it so far! It is a strong smell, I do think that it wears off a bit as the day goes by. But at least it smells like the beach :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2598878 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 17:40:44 +0000 MoonMoon 2598878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought the Hawaiian Tropics Lotion today, my Target didn't have the Jergens in trial size. It feels pretty pleasant, so I'm looking forward to a daily SPF routine. It smells pleasant but strong so I hope the scent faces a bit with wearing. Thanks again for all your responses! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2597304 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 17:20:48 +0000 MoonMoon 2597304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jape14: good idea, thanks!</p> <p>@junebugsmama: I might have to try the mixing, but I'm kind of going for mindless convenience so I'll see if one of the other products might work first! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2597300 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 17:17:48 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2597300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@psw27: I know aveeno used to have one just like it! @MoonMoon: I just take my favorite lotion and mix in half and half with a body sunscreen I like. Try to use higher spf since its diluted. It absorbs so well that way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2597090 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 12:18:13 +0000 jape14 2597090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MoonMoon: I only have a travel size one so I've only used it a few times, but I don't recall any stickiness. It's definitely thicker than the Hawaiian tropic one. I think I got the travel size one at Target so maybe check there instead of the regular lotion aisle? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2597086 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 12:14:16 +0000 MoonMoon 2597086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jape14: have you tried the Jergens one? It seems like what I want, but I'm worried about stickiness! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2597082 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 12:09:59 +0000 jape14 2597082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second @SweetiePie: this is my favorite sunscreen as well. It doesn't feel sticky at all to me! </p> <p>For one that's more of a bb cream situation, there's the Jergens BB Protect with SPF 15 (<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Jergens-Protect-Perfecting-Sunscreen-Spectrum/dp/B00Q23KMKW" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Jergens-Protect-Perfecting-Sunscreen-Spectrum/dp/B00Q23KMKW</a>). Dermadoctor used to carry one at Sephora (called Brazilian Bombshell) but I think it's been discontinued. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2597063 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 11:31:35 +0000 MoonMoon 2597063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: I'll look for it, thank you!</p> <p>Interesting that so many of us are seeking this out. Maybe it's impossible to have the perfect lotion feel and good sun coverage... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2597023 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 10:35:27 +0000 periwinklebee 2597023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Following. I haven't found one that didn't have that sticky sunscreen feel... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2596972 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 09:42:02 +0000 Foodnerd81 2596972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@psw27: aveeno used to make one that had SPF 15 or so, maybe they still do- but it felt like sunscreen. Like I always had that slightly sticky city grime is going to stick to my arms feeling that you get with some sunscreens. I was disappointed. </p> <p>Alba botanica has one that I have wanted to try but havent yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2596962 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 09:28:53 +0000 SweetiePie 2596962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, Hawaiian tropic has a sunscreen that is "hydrating". I loooove it. It goes on like lotion, not sticky or greasy. I could totally use it as an every day lotion to put on out of the shower. </p> <p>I also mentioned it in the "products that live up to the hype" thread.<br /> Hawaiian Tropic Sunscreen Silk Hydration Moisturizing Broad Spectrum Sun Care Sunscreen Lotion - SPF 30, 6 Ounce <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00639DLV2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_E3kOxbHD60FFZ" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00639DLV2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_E3kOxbHD60FFZ</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2596961 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 09:25:26 +0000 looch 2596961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Eucerin makes one, I would probably go with that.</p> <p>Last year there was a company that marketed a daily lotion with SPF but now I can't recall the brand! I thought it was coppertone, but it doesn't seem to be. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2596958 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 09:21:08 +0000 psw27 2596958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Following this... I always wondered why Aveeno or whoever doesn't just put sunblock in all of their daily lotion. I've thought about adding some/making some myself! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-spf-body-lotion#post-2596955 Tue, 02 Aug 2016 09:19:17 +0000 MoonMoon 2596955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been wanting to get a body lotion with sunscreen in it for everyday use, but I was surprised that there weren't any on the shelf at Target or the drugstore. So I'll have to order from Amazon. Do you have a favorite to recommend? Bonus if it has a little tint or airbrushing element to it. </p>
