I'm Calling It: Summer Fridays ShadeDrops Is Going to Be My Go-To SPF This Summer

Sunscreen is the one skincare product I go through the quickest, which is why I have a handful in my medicine cabinet at all times. Typically I rotate between them depending on what's in the cards on any given day, whether I need a lightweight SPF that layers well under makeup or a formula that will hold up on a sweaty, late spring, hot-girl walk.

Summer Fridays' first sunscreen works in both scenarios, which is why I've found myself reaching for it every day since I received a bottle of it a few weeks ago. ShadeDrops is a mineral SPF 30 with soothing and nourishing skincare ingredients like camomile, squalane, and antioxidants. The milky, serum-like texture has a slight yellow tint that blends seamlessly into the skin and leaves a soft, natural glow that is in no way goop or greasy like many physical SPF formulas are.

The sunscreen works well under makeup as it doesn't leave any residue on my skin or cause my foundation and cream blush to oxidize mid-day. And when I wear it on a bare face, I don't sweat extra when I'm out in the NYC humidity.
