Summer Is On Its Way, So, Let’s Talk About Sun Screen

Now that we’re nearly through April the warm breezes of summer are just around the corner.  Spending time outside is enjoyable again!

But, More time outside = More sun screen.

Now, I’ve got to preface any post I do about sun screen with the well known fact that sunscreen should be used year round.  Not only is there skin cancer to worry about, but, the effects of sun damage can also expedite the aging process as well as cause pigmentation issues and more; and these risks are present 12 months of the year.

If you’re going to wear it only infrequently, summer is definitely the season to pick since you’re outside more, but, remember, even in winter the sun is powerful, especially when its reflecting off of the snow.  And, although the rest of you may be bundled, your face is usually exposed.

So, regardless of the season, check out the following sun screens that are proven effective, feel comfortable and light not greasy and gross when you wear them, and have added benefits of all kinds for your skin.

Jan Marini’s Antioxidant Daily Face Protectant With SPF30 ~ Waterproof!

Jan Marini’s Antioxidant Daily Face Protectant With SPF 30 will not only protect your skin from the sun’s damaging rays, but, this wonderful sun screen also hydrates and moisturizes your skin.  It is a delight to wear daily and can be applied as the base coat before your  make up.  Oh, and its waterproof too!

Dr. Schrammek’s Optimum Protection Cream LSF 20

This gentle sun screen from Dr. Schrammek’s amazing skin care line offers a wide variety of benefits for you skin, Optimum Protection Cream LSF20 moisturizes, has regenerative properties, and also smooths and firms skin to help it look younger and healthier; all while offering SPF 20 level protection to the delicate skin of your face and neck.

   Thanks for this post. Very timely as I just ran out of sunscreen and I am still hoping to find that amazing brand that works well and doesn’t feel nasty, and the bottle I just kicked was not yet it – so – in the market for something new.

   I think I’m going to check out Sevani – the ingredient list seems amazing!

   Thanks again
