Even though it's common knowledge (and we hope practice!) that you should wear SPF all year round, sunscreen understandably gets more attention when temperatures heat up. Consumer Reports just released its annual Summer sunscreen guide, which is a roundup of SPFs that impress based on a combination of effectiveness, price, and user reviews. Though you'll need a login to see the full list, the folks at the nonprofit rating organisation gave POPSUGAR a copy of the results. Ahead, you'll see the 10 best lotion and spray sunscreens ranked by safety. Read on to see if your favourite made the cut — and if it didn't, consider heading to the drugstore to pick up a new one!
