Seven Sunscreens I Can't Live Without



Skinceuticals SPF 45 ($37) - Thick and effective this is THE ONLY sunscreen I will wear to the beach, to play tennis, or to my kids’ soccer game. My kids know that they are required to wear this also. We do not burn when we slather this on. The texture is a little thick, but it works!



Hampton Sun Spray SPF 70 or SPF 55 ($32) - We are all a little lazy – so for legs – I let my kids use this sheer, non oily spray.



Trish McEvoy Spf 40 ($45) or Chanel SPF 50*  ($52) - My sheer, pre-makeup weekday sunscreens, I put this on and then apply primer and foundation. Tinted moisturizers go on beautifully without streak.
*At Select Bluemercury Stores




Skinceuticals Fusion SPF 50 ($64) - in Limited Edition Super Size 125 ml. Pre-beach, on the weekends, or in the morning if I am out running errands, I quickly apply this and run out the door. A hint of tint evens out skin tone.




Not to be missed: the NEW! Kiehl's Men’s Facial Fuel UV Guard SPF 50+ ($34) - Sheer and with a hint of menthol – this is perfect for your significant other or husband. So easy to apply with a nice, light texture and manly scent!

It is also SO important to protect HAIR from the sun.

All of us are aware of the risks we take exposing our skin to the sun, but many don’t realize that prolonged sun exposure can also damage the hair. UVA and UVB rays can inflict damage from the cuticle to the inner structure of the hair.

These effects can cause:

Broken or Split ends
Color Mutation
Frizz
Weak Hair

One of the most AMAZING and fairly unknown products in the market is

CREATIVE HAIRTOOLS
LEAVE-IN DETANGLING COMPLEX.

The detangling formula is also a SUN FILTER. Formulated with botanical extracts.
This light conditioning spray adds body and shine to the hair by closing the cuticle.
It leaves the hair moisturized, full, smooth, shiny, oil free, and SUN SAFE.

As a health tip: I spray it on my part to protect my scalp from itching, peeling, burning, and even worse, melanoma.

Marla, you should try it, it is amazing!!!!

Can also buy Creative Products at Off Saks Fifth Avenue Starting next month, including this item.

By the way back to skin....

ST TROPEZ Tanning Lotion is amazing. I love that it has a remover lotion for the slim chance that you can't manage to lather it on evenly. I think it's close to impossible since the technology of the product provides a color guide making the lather process a cinch :)
