Although the white cream is called a lotion, it doesn’t feel like one.

Instead, Bask’s sunscreen is more like amilky serumfor the neck down.
My skin slurped it up in seconds.
And after a couple of minutes, it barely felt like SPF wason my person.
The only giveaway that I’m practicing safe sun is the old-school coconut-vanilla scent the product leaves behind.
Bask’s founder Michael Huffstetler launched the sunscreen with a similar story to mine in mind.
He even referred to the watery, transparent consistencies ofKorean facial sunscreensas the inspiration for Bask’s products.
I can attest to Bask’s success in this endeavor.
The lotion smooths on just as my belovedNeogen Day-Light Protection Airy Sunscreendoes.
And just as Bask intended, I actually look forward to reapplying the SPF lotion.
My tri-daily dog park visits with my puppy, Scorpion, are prefaced by sunscreen app.
The latter is not to be confused with oxybenzone and octinoxate.
(If you concerned aboutchemical sunscreenusage, I recommend listening tothe SPF episodeofThe Science of Beautypodcast.)
If you prefer to spritz on your sunscreen, Bask also offers an SPF 30 Continuous Spray.
Reaching for the non-aerosol, propellant-free can is like taking a moment to mist on coconut water.
Unlike the SPF sprays of my youth, this one doesn’t leave skin shiny and oily.
It just sinks into skin like perfume.
The only reason why I prefer the lotion is the utility is more intentional and tactile for me.
I like knowing I’m getting every inch of my skin I possibly can, includingmy tattoos.
