Black Girl Sunscreen

There are so many options for sunscreen out there, but one specific for our melanin? I first heard of this brand this year and ordered right away. There’s even an option for kids! The adult product is SPF 30 and SPF 50 for the kids. Both products are sheer with no white residue, which lets be honest, is very important. You can buy on their website and even shop for their products at Target! Follow @blackgirlsunscreen on Instagram or visit the Black Girl Sunscreen website for more info!
