Applying sunscreen isn't exactly fun. Lubing up with sticky, uncomfortable SPF is usually the last thing you want to do before heading outdoors. Yet, it is such an important step in our skin care regimen in order to keep ourselves healthy, sunburn-free and looking as young as we feel.

Luckily, brands totally get it and are now creating sunscreens that make you actually want to apply them. Whether it's uniquely comfy formulas, multipurpose products or sunscreens that have a little extra something special, you no longer have to settle for run-of-the-mill creams. Try one of our favorite new SPFs with benefits and start enjoying your sunscreen.

Why: Do you have those days where you're out in the sun, rocking some beautiful braids and you have to choose between burning your part or putting a bunch of greasy sunscreen all over the top of your head?
