Hypothetically Speaking: The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream
Price/Packaging:
18$ for 50ml (1.7fl.oz) or 33$ for 100ml (3.3fl.oz). Unfortunately, this cream comes in a jar, which is not only unhygienic, but also bad for antioxidants in the product (as they will deteriorate within couple weeks after opening the jar).

Body Care: Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30
This is probably one of the most popular sunscreens on the market. It has very distinctive scent, that a lot of people associate with beach or summer vacation. So hopefully this review will be useful for you.
Packaging/Pricing:
8-12$ for 177ml (6fl.oz). Not an ideal packaging, since it features clear plastic. Keep away from the sun.
[Orignialy the product had beautiful stripy pattern inside, but due to heavy use these layers got mixed together.]

Excellent (only beneficial ingredients, proven research)
Good (mostly beneficial, not extensive research or just not quite outstanding properties)
OK (mostly thickeners, emulsifiers, mild preservatives, pH adjusters, all that is necessary, but not a skincare per se)

Bad (irritants and anything bad that shouldn't be in a skincare, usually fragrance)
