Move over, self-tanner: Coco & Eve has entered the SPF game

Being from Southern California, I take my tanning routine very seriously.Frying in the sun was basically my sport.That was, until I got sun poisoning. Now, tanning involves lathering on sunscreen, hoping the UV rays can work their magic beneath pounds of thick SPF. And, as much as I love self-tanning foam, a natural summer tan always beats a fake one. Thankfully, the self-tan experts at Coco & Eve launched their first SPF line just in time for this season’s summer days. The Sunny Honey Protect line has the glow-forward, lightweight formulas that make protecting your skin while tanning feel luxurious.With three distinct finishes, there’s a formula to suit every tanning style and preference.I put each one to the test to see which SPF deserves a spot in your beach bag before summer comes to an end.The second I pumped on this milky sunscreen, I was immediately shocked.

Unlike other sunscreens that take forever to rub all the way into your skin, this one is actually lightweight and effortlessly absorbs in a matter of seconds, leaving behind no white cast or pale effect.There’s a slight glowy finish, but the best part is that it’s not greasy or sticky and feels completely dry and natural.After applying Coco & Eve’s Highlighter Body SPF, my skin feels and looks hydrated.The sunscreen leaves a dewy finish without being obvious that there’s anything on my skin.

I love that it’s not overly greasy or sparkly like some body glow sunscreens, so I can subtly shimmer while protecting my skin from the sun.This viral bestseller is a tanning essential.

Both a body oil and sunscreen, it boosts your natural tanning effect with a biomimetic peptide that also provides protection against photoaging.I’ve tried lots of tanning oils, but I love that this Tan Boosting Anti-Aging one has a clear finish that won’t get all over your towel and clothes.

It’s fast-absorbing and doesn’t take forever to settle into your skin, so you won’t feel like you’re soa...
