Nice smelling sunscreens?

I hate the smell of sunscreen, but I can’t seem to find a single one that smells good. They all have an underlying sunscreeny scent. I do like the Le Tan Coconut sunscreen, though. Do you guys know of any other sunscreens that smell nice?

  • I have two sunscreens I use and both smell so much better than normal sunscreen (in my opinion). I use the Invisible Zinc range and Le Tan Coconut Mist. You apply the sunscreen and not only is it lightweight but smells good. I hope this helps.

    There is this amazing sunscreen it smells like COCONUTS if you like the smell of that. It’s the le tan coconut sunscreen and retails at around $20. Totally worth it because I too hate the smell of sunscreen and this one smells nothing like any sunscreen! It is also very high spf (you can choose from 15 to 50+) and protects me throughout the day!

    The nivea spray bottles smell really good! I use them all through summer and they give you a really nice brown glow after using it.

    Neutrogena Beach Defence is also good, has a fruity scent and doesn’t smell like sunscreen and also feels nice on your skin, very moisturising.

    Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence Sunscreen SPF50+ PA+++ is my go to – it isn’t in Aussie stores but it available from Amazon with free shipping. I am extremely happy with this product! My skin is combination/oily with occasional hormonal acne. As part of my routine, I use both an AHA and BHA, so suncreen was a must for me. I’ve used several western/American sunscreens, but they always left my skin oily and didn’t play nice with my make-up. Even those sunscreens that are designed for faces with sensitive skin were not good fits for me. This product is a dream!

    It doesn’t smell like sunscreen at all!

    Hi, I recommended the Shiseido’s sunscreen. There is a yellow bottle one that I currently used, I think that smell is good for me.

    Hi All,

    Any zinc/natural sunscreens which smell nice? Tried the Natural Instinct one but still smells weird – esp after actually being in the heat. I am allergic to all chemical sunscreens and have to make do with physical ones (for the face, I use the Kimberly Sayer moisturizer with SPF 30+ which is awesome)

    Any help on this would be fab

    Nutrimetics has a great one 50+ which feels dry to touch and non stick – sand does not stick to you. http://www.nutrimetics.com.au/tracybaker
    I love the products and use on my daughter and friends we have a pool so always have the family pump on hand. Take the spray out with us when away from home.

    I have been using the Dermalogica Solar defense spf 50 + on my face and I reckon it smells great It has a nice herbal scent to it. It is expensive sunscreen but I only use it for my face. It is worth it for me because it does not make me look greasy or does not give me that white cast that most sunscreens give me and I hate that.
