As Aussies, we know the necessity of having a really good sunscreen in our daily routine. But let’s be real, not all sunscreens are created equal. And don’t even get us started on the greasy, gross, slimy feeling some leave on your body. Absolutely not it. But that doesn’t mean we can just skip the step all together. Fake tan is the only way our skin will be seeing some colour, and so we’ve got the sun safety motto committed to memory: Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek, Slide. Plus, of course, make sure to give the can a good read over before applying.
But back to the fun sun protection we’ve been promising. Because we’ve got two brand new players bringing us some seriously cool sun safety products. Yep, we’re introducing you to whipped sunscreen (and after sun care). So, let’s see what the deliciously promising cans have in store…
Whipped Sunscreen
Allkinds Whipped Sun Care
These total newbies on the block (literally launching as we speak) are here to take their fun, skin-first approach and transform the sun-protection category, primarily with their whipped formulas. But because not everyone loves a lingering scent, they’ve launched their first whipped sunscreen as a totally fragrance-free. However, we have it on good authority there will be more fun things coming (so watch this space). With broad spectrum protection, this sunscreen is seriously easy to apply (and reapply) with its easy-to-spritz whipped nozzle. And there’s no gross greasy feeling either.
But don’t forget: use only as directed and make sure to read the label!
As for the after sun, boy is it a treat for summer skin. With its gorgeous cooling sensation (a must on a hot day), plus the skin-comforting and aloe vera formula, Allkinds are onto a total winner. On top of all that, the scent is 10/10, and it doesn’t stay awkward and sticky on your skin like other after sun products (you know who we’re looking at).
Key Features:
- Vitamin E-enriched formula
- Fast drying
- Two hours water resistant
- Made in Australia
- Dermatologically tested
- Cooling sensation
- After sun is tropical-scented
- After sun includes over 90 per cent aloe vera formula

Sundae Body Whipped Sun Care
It’s a line up of tropical delights. A total buffet of sun-protecting, skin-loving goodness if you will. With not one but two scents of after sun protection, these fun whips know what’s up. With both whipped after-sun cans containing the ultra skin-cooling native river mint, your hot summer skin will be loving the cooling sensations, while you’ll get to enjoy a whiff of melon-y delish-ness or fresh cucumber fun.
But the main star of the show (sorry after care) is the sunscreen. ‘Let’s Get Tropical’ is exactly that, with its seriously delicious scent that’ll have you questioning if you should give it a taste (you definitely shouldn’t BTW, but we totally get the temptation). But you’ll get to enjoy the seriously easy-to-apply goodness of the whipped formula when you coat (and we mean coat people) your body in this delightful, non-greasy formula. But remember what we said before? Sunscreen is just one aspect of sun protection. Don’t forget to Slip, Slap, Seek, Slide as well, and ya know, follow the directions for use. Because sunscreen application is totally more than a one and done kind of sitch, okay?
Key Features:
- Sunscreen fragrances: coconut, mango, vanilla and musk
- Two after sun scents to choose from
- Enriched with skin-brightening Kakadu plum
- Doesn’t leave a white cast
Octinoxate and oxybenzone-free formula - Made in Australia
- After suns boost moisture
- After suns are formulated with cooling native river mint and aloe vera
- Fast absorbing
