Coco & Eve is known for its self-tanning and bronzing solutions, and it spotted a gap in the SPF category that prompted the creation of the next-gen Sunny Honey Protect collection. Knowing that consumers struggle to find formulas that feel as good as they are effective, Coco & Eve set out to create a range that delivers high-level broad-spectrum protection and prioritizes hydration, sensorial textures and glow-boosting finishes. "Our customers care deeply about glowing skin–but they want to be protected too," said Alexandra King, Global Brand Director at Coco & Eve. "Sunny Honey Protect is the result of listening closely to our community and applying everything we know about bronzed skin to SPF."
Within this "SPF wardrobe," there's Sunny Honey Protect Coconut Milk Body SPF 50, a lightweight, water-based body milk; the serum-like Sunny Honey Protect Highlighter Body SPF 50; and Sunny Honey Protect Tan Boosting Anti-Aging Body Oil SPF, available in two levels with a water-resistant formula and nourishing tropical extracts.
