It's About to Be Hot and Sunny—TG—So Allow Me to Introduce You to 2025's Best New Sunscreens

As a beauty editor, I've been burned (pun intended) by bad sunscreens more times than I can count. I'm talking about pilling, smudging, chalky texture, greasy residue, ghostly white cast… the list goes on. But here's the thing: There are far too many brands and new product launches for me to even consider continuing in this way. In 2025, I outright refuse to settle for a subpar SPF.

While I have editor-approved sunscreens I keep close at hand, I'm excited to get into new (or new-ish) formulas that do double, even triple duty. Some incorporate self-tanner so you can look sunkissed without sun damage. Others reduce redness, smooth texture, or provide serum-grade active ingredients. These formulas are so good, you'll actually *like* wearing them. Imagine that. So, without further ado, allow me to introduce you to the 10 best new sunscreens of 2025 (so far).
