Hawaiian Tropic Island Sport SPF50+ Lotion 180mL
Hawaiian Tropic Island Sport SPF50+ is a high-performance very high protection sunscreen designed for active days. The ultra-light, non-greasy lotion absorbs quickly, feels breathable on the skin and helps protect against UVA/UVB rays while you train, swim or explore outdoors. With a clean, sporty finish and the signature Hawaiian Tropic scent, it resists sweat and water and won’t leave a heavy film—so you can focus on moving, not on your sunscreen. The handy 180mL bottle is perfect for the gym bag, beach tote or everyday use.
