A Sunscreen for Everyone

After being cooped up for the past few months we’re all eager to get outside. A solid dose of vitamin D is sure to make us all feel better, but we need to protect ourselves at the same time. Be sure to stock up on plenty of sunscreen this summer. Here are a few of our favorites.

Soleil Toujours Organic Extreme Face and Scalp SPF 50 Sport, $36 – This coral reef safe sunscreen mist delivers superior protection to face and scalp without the weight of a cream. Great for re-applying and for protecting your scalp during prolonged hours in the sun.

Coola Classic Body Organic Sunscreen SPF 50, $28 – This continuous mist sunscreen provides easy application for hard to reach spots like your back. Kids in and out of the water are no match for this spray. No more slathering them every five minutes with lotion.

Skinceuticals Physical Fusion SPF 50, $34 – a tinted sunscreen fluid with 100 percent mineral filters while providing broad spectrum protection. The tint evens out skin tone and sinks into skin without leaving a residue.

Supergoop Glow Screen SPF 40, $36 – a makeup primer that leaves a dewy, glowy finish while simultaneously offering sun protection and hydration.

Dermalogica Prisma Protect SPF 30, $65 – Light-activated multi-tasking moisturizer provides broad spectrum defense while preventing future signs of skin damage. Intelligent drone technology is activated by visible light to help boost skin’s natural luminosity.

 

 

  • The latest from Angela
I have been a beauty junkie for what seems like forever, but before I did anything about it, I went to law school. (Yes, my life is a little like the reverse of Legally Blonde.) Then, I worked as a prosecutor in Sonoma County after which I moved to the DC area with my husband in ’97. I served as Majority Counsel to the Senate Banking Committee followed by a year-long stint at a lobbying firm. You get the picture. It was then that I decided to act on my dream of becoming an entrepreneur. Finding my favorite beauty products proved to be impossible without stepping foot in a mall–the horror. So, I decided to bring my favorites to Alexandria. A few trips to New York and a flight to France and Bellacara was born in March 2000.
