If you’ve read anything about skin, the outdoors, or talked to your most skincare-obsessed friend in the past five years, you’re likely aware — we should wear sunscreen every day, regardless of the season. Sunscreen is important for beach days and prolonged sun exposure, of course, but preventing sun damage is also an important part of everyday skincare.

Luckily, there are tons of amazing vegan and cruelty-free sunscreens available on shelves everywhere from your local Target to Sephora. There’s something that’s suitable no matter your budget and whether you’re wakeboarding or just walking to work.
