summer fun

It is that time again... time to spend the afternoon outside, time to spend the weekends at the pool or lake, time to take trips to the beach... But it is also time to be sun smart.

Being a skin cancer survivor I am like the sunscreen police around here... At my parents' pool I always ask if everyone has on their sunscreen! I'm not pushy, I just don't want anyone to have to go through what I went through (at any age)!

I personally use Neutrogena with Helioplex SPF 70. Yes you read that correctly SPF 70! Hey, I don't take any chances...


I have it in this spray and in the cream form. The spray doesn't even feel like you are wearing sunscreen.

This is the suncreen my dermatologist recommended for me because it covers a broad spectrum of UVA and UVB rays.

I am not saying that you have to go out and buy this sunscreen, this is just the kind I use. Just make sure whatever sunscreen you use covers UVA and UVB rays to get the most protection!

Be sun smart and wear your sunscreen this summer!
