While there are plenty of personal care products that are beautifully packaged, fun and good-smelling, topical bug repellants and [anti-bug sunscreens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buzzie) typically do not fall within this category—except for Sunshine + Glitter's 'Glamour Camper SPF50+'

The all-natural sunscreen boasts a [zinc-based formula that is water resistant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mineral-gel-sunscreen) up to 40 minutes. Some of the soothing ingredients that can be found in the formula include aloe vera gel, coconut oil, green tea extract and other antioxidant-rich additions. Unlike many chemical-laden bug repellants that have strong, unnatural scents, this [DEET-free](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/natural-insect-repellents) one from Sunshine + Glitter smells of a combination of cedar, citronella, lemongrass and peppermint oil.

Sunshine + Glitter makes a range of unique personal care products that are loaded with glitter, including everything from body lotions and lipglosses to after-sun care products.
