15 Natural and Organic Sunscreens That Actually Work

This lightweight sunscreen is formulated with brightening vitamin C and soothing green tea extracts, making it gentle enough for even the most sensitive of skin types.

Technically, all sunscreens help prevent the wrinkles caused by sun damage, but this creamy formula is also filled with vitamin D, an antioxidant that hardcore protects against fine lines and inflammation.

This soothing formula does it all: Hyaluronic acid and squalane leave your complexion hydrated and plump, the sheer tint (available in 18 shades) evens out discoloration, and the SPF 40 ensures you're protected along the way.

You're heard it time and time again: reapplication is key to sun safety. But really, are you actually doing it? This pre-loaded powder brush makes on-the-go protection easy and has subtle mattifying effects for sweaty summer days.

A little dab of this moisturizing sunblock goes a long way, thanks to jojoba and sunflower seed oils, aloe, and grape extract. Your skin will feel lightly hydrated but never greasy or sticky. Use it on your face and neck and apply the excess on the back of your hands. 

This non-irritating, invisible cream formula from upstate New York absorbs quickly and works well under makeup. And if you have oily or combination skin, you might even skip your moisturizer step. 

Formulated with babies and kids in mind, this scent-free clear zinc stick offers supple protection for sensitive areas like eyes, lips and noses.  

Perfect for making a statement on eyelids or lips, this pocket-size bright blue block is ideal for (virtual or irl) festival season.

We love this formula for its undetectable finish. It's lightweight for acne-prone skin, and boasts winter cherry and blueberry extract for added environmental protection. 

An oil-free formula that dries quickly with a slightly matte finish—a perfect substitute from primer, or even foundation, all summer long. To add a flattering tint, we like to add a few drops of our favorite foundation before applying. 

A soothing mineral block ramped up with a nourishing botanical blend to keep your skin barrier strong from the neck down.

Loaded with aloe, shea butter and rosehip oil, this nourishing water-resistant body blend keeps burns and peeling at bay. 

Another baby formula we love for bodies, this creamy sweat-resistant block boasts calming oat extract to soothe redness and irritation. 

This Australian formula is formulated to keep you—and ocean life—safe, without any oxybenzone or octinoxate. Take a cue from the bottle: It turns blue in strong UV light and serves as a useful reminder to reapply.
