Without sun protection, dark skin remains vulnerable to hyperpigmentation, sunburn, and dark spots in Nigeria. And while sunscreen is essential, it’s easy to forget to apply sunscreen on some days, which makes you wish every skincare step could be rolled into one tube. On busy mornings or low-effort days, it’s easy to skip, which is why multitasking skincare is more relevant than ever.

That way, you don’t have to buy so many products or worry about forgetting one step of the routine. While that is a bit futuristic, there are body creams that contain SPF. 

These twelve body creams with SPF deeply moisturise, are gentle on sensitive skin, and don’t leave sticky residue for sweaty individuals. They also shield your skin from sunburn, dark spots, and premature ageing.
