Lazybones who hate how long it takes to slather on sunscreen will flip for this foaming version, which is not only fun to use but also gets you sufficiently coated in no time. A small dollop of the lightweight mousse can cover a wide swath of skin and quickly disintegrates for easy, even spreading. The nonsticky formula is also loaded with hyaluronic acid, leaving skin feeling hydrated and smooth even though the lotion dries matte.
