We asked the BuzzFeed Community to tell us what one item has improved their summer the most. Here are the products they say have saved their skin:
1. Bare Republic Mineral Face SPF

"It never stings my eyes, doesn’t change the color of my makeup, smells like sweet tarts (!!!), and best of all, it stays matte and never goes greasy on my oily skin." — fullmetalannabelle
Get yourself a tube ($14.99) here.
2. Lush Silky Underwear Dusting Powder

3. ThermaCell Mosquito Repellent

"I live in the woods near two lakes and could never sit outdoors due to all the mosquitoes, but now I can sit outside as long as I want, and I haven’t had a bite in years. I love this repellent not just because it works, but because it isn’t harmful like using DEET and I don’t have to spray anything all over my body every time I go outdoors." — MrsH810
Pick one up ($24.99) here.
4. Piz Buin Sun Lipstick
"I used to get burnt lips on vacation, even when I would apply sun cream over them, but this lipstick has honestly changed my life. It’s so moisturizing, and gets me through the summer with one less thing to worry about!" — alisoni4b0743a2a

10. Banana Boat Coolzone Spray Sunscreen

11. Off! Clip-Ons

"I'm basically mosquito bait, so my go-to repellent of choice is anything with a high percentage of DEET... but when I'm going to an event that doesn't involve much moving around, these clip-ons provide protection without covering every inch of my skin in chemicals." — Laura Lim Prescott, Facebook

12. Gold Bond Friction Defense
