# Sunscreen that doesn't sting eyes

Source: HiveTried, https://hivetried.com/beauty/sunscreen/doesnt-sting-eyes/
Category: Beauty > Sunscreen. Updated 2026-10-08. Based on 117 counted first-hand reports from Ulta shopper reviews, May 2022 to Oct 2026.

**Question:** Which sunscreen doesn't sting your eyes?

**Short answer:** La Roche-Posay Anthelios UV Air SPF 50 has the best record: 11 of 11 reviewers who brought up their eyes said it didn't sting, though that is a small group from Ulta. Supergoop! PLAY Everyday Lotion SPF 50 is next at 9 of 14. People tend to mention stinging when it happens to them, so read the low shares further down as a warning more than a verdict.

**What stands out:** The two sunscreen mists sit near the bottom: Naked Sundays Hydrating Glow Mist SPF 50+ and Kopari Sunglaze Sheer Setting Mist SPF 50 have 4 of 20 and 2 of 18, with stinging or burning in 76% and 89% of their reviews.
