Sunscreen is our top recommendation, as you may have rightly guessed. We love this specific one because not only is it very effective (broad spectrum against UVA and UVB) but it also provides a little tint, so you don’t have to wear heavy foundations.
How to Use: Use generously to face, neck and chest 15 minutes before sun exposure. Re-apply at least every two hours or after 40 minutes of swimming.
This is a great antioxidant to help protect your skin from all the environmental pollutants and prevent aging. It also gives your skin a beautiful glow.
How to Use: Apply to clean, dry skin in the morning as last step before sunscreen.
This is a great product for hydrating your skin and goes on lightly.
How to Use: Apply 2-3 drops to the entire face, neck and chest (avoid the eye area), using fingertips. Can be used in the morning and night.
It’s important to take care of your skin both inside and out. This means paying attention to your diet in addition to using these products.
Protect yourself from the sun by staying hydrated, wearing protective clothing and avoiding peak sun hours when possible. But also, make sure to have fun!
To reiterate, let’s put it this way: For every ice-cold drink you have in the sun add a layer of sunscreen.
