Mineral sunscreens can conjure the image of a lifeguard with a pasty, white nose — for good reason: Finding one that doesn’t leave your skin looking like it’s covered in a chalky film is tricky. We’ve evaluated over 100 sunscreens across 12 years — and this one stands out for how easily it rubs in. Plus, it’s nearly colorless once it’s fully dried down, including on people with darker skin or lots of body hair.

These old-school, horn-rimmed frames could easily pass for designer sunnies that cost three times as much. And they come in two different sizes that fit a range of faces, so they’ll stay put, even on low nose bridges. One smitten tester quipped that he’d like to be buried in them. Though we can’t promise the frames will make it that long, they are built to last for many, many years.

Says newsletter editor Brittney Ho: “I love that I never have to buy another cheap, disposable travel tube destined for the landfill.”
