In terms of the most well-known, popular sunscreen brands, it's hard to deny that Coppertone, Banana Boat and Hawaiian Tropic are often staples in everyone's beach or pool bags. Other really good sunscreens are made by Neutrogena and Aveeno, too (both of these companies offer a lot of different sunscreens for the face, as well). Some of these brands offer waterproof sunscreens that allow wearers to swim longer or sweat more without constantly having to reapply. Keep in mind, however, that it's always best to reapply sunscreen as often as you can, to ensure the proper protection.

Organic sunscreen brands are also included here. The organic sunscreens are becoming more and more popular, as people seek out products that contain fewer potentially harmful chemicals, yet offer good solid protection from the sun's damaging rays. Popular organic sunscreens include California Baby, Badger and Aubrey Organics.
