Many of us don't even think twice when applying sunscreen before hitting the beach or pool, but not everyone follows this practice before an outdoor workout or activity. Just because you're not lying out on a towel doesn't mean it's any less important to protect yourself from harmful UVA and UVB rays [1]. In addition to using a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher, you should also look out for products that are water-resistant. Even if you aren't going for a dip, chances are that you'll probably sweat off your application. Whether you're going for a run or a hike outdoors, shop these seven sweat- and water-resistant sunscreens that won't melt away.
