Whether you are heading to the lakefront, pool or even a local festival being out in the sun requires you to pick a good sunscreen to protect your skin from the damaging sun rays. Consider these quick tips to help protect your skin this summer.
· Grab a sunscreen that protects from both UVA and UVB rays, although the sunscreen's SPF shows the amount of protection you'll receive from UVB rays, the sunscreen will need ingredients like Titanium Dioxide or Zinc Oxide to protect against UVA rays.
· For longer protection try a water-resistant sunblock or waterproof sunscreen, if you'll be wearing the sunblock at the beach, pool or while participating in sporting events where perspiration will wash regular sunscreen away. Sunscreens in spray form may also last longer and, as an added bonus, won't run into your eyes in the water or when you sweat. Many waterproof suntan lotions are oil based to make them last longer, so you may want to avoid them if you're prone to breakouts.
· You may also try a moisturizer with sunscreen if you want a two-in-one application. Be sure to look for types with broad spectrum protection to shield your skin from UVA and UVB rays. Some brands also include antioxidants to protect and combat fine lines and even wrinkles at the same time.
Some of my top picks for sunscreens for this summer-
Coppertone Sport Clear Continuous Spray Sunscreen SPF 50 around $10 @local drug stores. http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/coppertone-sport-clear-continuous-spray-sunscreen/ID=prod2992947-product
