A Roundup of the Bags You Need for Your SPF

Authored by Drew Carlos

You finally did it — you made plans to go to the beach. Good for you! You deserve a little summer fun. But you are five minutes from leaving and nothing is packed. And suddenly it hits you: Where are you going to put the sunscreen?

At this point, you know SPF is non-negotiable — did you see you can even develop melanoma under your nails? Which means that you have to figure out a way to carry it to the beach.

May I present: The best bags dedicated for holding your sunscreen and keeping it protected from the sun’s heat — they are also safe for the environment.

So, put down the plastic and pick up the straw! Or the canvas! Today, it might have been an old Lululemon bag, but tomorrow? The chicest beach bag this side of the Mississippi.
