"Sport sunscreen is generally a sunscreen with a strong SPF factor compared to regular sunscreen and is usually designed with water resistivity," notes Gonzalez. "Sport sunscreen is great for runners, swimmers, hikers, skiers or anyone who is outdoors for long periods of time."

Waterproof Sunscreen

"When a sunscreen is water resistant, it means the SPF remains effective while you are sweating or swimming," says Gonzalez. "For example, if a sunscreen says 'water resistant: 40 minutes,' the SPF after 40 minutes will decline and you should reapply to maintain the original SPF value."
