Tinted Sunscreen




I really enjoy using product from OZ Naturals and I have to say that my favorite by far is their tinted age defying solar shield 30 SPF. I just mix a little with my facial moisturizer for my face and spread a little on my legs so they don't look so pale in comparison to my arms which see the sun more often.

Easy to use, comes in a nice size tube. When just used for my face this could probably last me a year since I rarely use any other make up other then tinted sunscreen and lip gloss, although I would like to get back into it just a little.

Age Defying Solar Shield





Having Sunscreen year round is very important. As I age I realize this more. I try to make sure the kids have theirs on, but often forget about myself.

Having this OZ Naturals SPF in my purse really helps me remember to put it on. When I reach for my lipgloss it is staring me in the face reminding me "Hey don't forget about me".

I prefer to use tinted SPF on my face but if I forget at least I know I have a backup in my purse.

Taking care of your skin



Part of taking care of your skin is protecting it from heat and cold.  Start with getting enough hydration or water in your diet, as well as a balanced healthy diet. This is the start to healthy skin. Staying away from drugs, alcohol, and smoking can make a big difference in how your skin ages a well looks. Of course you have to take into account the genes you acquired along the way from your ancestors. 

Everyone had different skin and has to find their own personal skin care regimen, but protecting you skin from the sun is a must. Make sure to always put on Sunscreen when you are going to be out in the sun. This is something I don't do as much as I would like to, mainly from laziness. 

I use a face cream with built in sunscreen which I always rub on my neck and hands. Other then that I am not always protected. I am more proactive about protecting my children's skin then I am my own. Why? Simply because they go outside more often that myself. 

When I know I am going to be out in the sun for any length of time such as taking the kids to sports practice, theme parks, the beach, etc. I make sure to slather up but for everyday when I will only be out in the sun for a few minutes I just don't take the time to put it on, but I should really do this because most car rides are over 30 minutes which brings it up to at least an hour of driving in the sun. Even though cars now have UV for the windshields, you really should slather up just on precaution. 

Andre Lorent makes a great sunscreen that is non greasy, paba free, fragrance free, as well as being made without animal testing. My favorite part is that this sunscreen moisturizes and rehydrates so I am not left with dry skin at the end of the day.

You can purchase the Andre Lorent rehydrating sunscreen on Amazon.


What Andre Lorent has to say about their product.
Imagine a heavenly sunscreen that you actually looked forward to using every day. Why? Because it contained anti-aging properties in a unique proprietary formula called Sundrisol7(TM).

This sunscreen is so good you'll want to use it as your daily moisturizer. This is a sunscreen which you've never experienced anything quite like before.

It has a texture which is as luxurious as your favorite daily face moisturizer... yet it's a sunscreen. Hence the name, Andre Lorent daily rehydrating sunscreen. Not only does it work on your face, it works on your whole body!

Here's a shocker for you
 - almost all sunscreens you buy only protect against the sun's "burning rays" (known as UVB rays). However, so very few sunscreens ALSO simultaneously protect against "aging rays" (known as UVA rays).

This Andre Lorent daily Hydrating SPF 30 Sunscreen is the leader at protecting you from both aging AND burning rays.
Women, men and children 6 months or older from all over are benefiting from this daily hydrating sunscreen.

Keeping your car cool


 We are in the midst of summer and if you do a lot of traveling, driving your kids around to camps and activities or even commute back and forth to work then you know how quickly a vehicle can heat up.

Just a quick snap of your wrist, then set this sun shade into the window of your vehicle and you are on your way to a much cooler car when you return after your errand, work, or shopping.

It will be that much quicker for the vehicle to cool down with the air conditioner as well. Gas prices are still high so any savings in my pocket is worth the time it takes to put this sun shade to use.

Love that it comes with a bag to store it in before use. Not sure if anyone remembers the old cardboard car sun shades but they broke down, and took up lots of room in your vehicle. This sun shade by Alpha Shades is much easier to store and use.

You can purchase AlphaShades on Amazon.

Sun Screen in a Pill




 I did a video review about this product on YouTube but wanted to update that I checked out this supplement, and what I am hearing is good including Dr.'s prescribing this for people like me who burn easily in the sun.

Great for those who sometimes forget, and for those busy moms like myself that so often slather the sunscreen on our children while forgetting ourselves.

I see my Dr. in a few weeks and will be checking to see if I can take this with my health issues and see what he and the pharmacist think and will report back with what they say.
