I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream for Sunscreen

Most of us grow up with a few generic brand sunscreen bottles lying around the house, barely touched, and fully toxic. Perhaps our moms packed it in our bags and we pretended not to see it. Or we applied a singular layer before a day-long beach trip, returning home with lobster burns. Sunscreen is an absolute must-have for any outdoor activity… for every age. While it is more common to hear of people starting to apply sunscreen daily later in life as a preventive to aging, it is actually necessary to wear sunscreen from our baby days. It is never too late to start…or too early!

Protect your baby’s skin from sun damage by applying reef-safe sunscreen before any trip outside. Toddlers and young children have very sensitive skin and are prone to sun damage. Applying sunscreen throughout the day will help them avoid any irritation. 

Pro tip: Mineral sunscreen is a healthier, eco-friendly option that is toxin free and less irritating on the skin! 

Better to be safe than sorry! It is super important to take preventive measures from any form of sun damage. From sun spots to skin cancer, sunscreen is a protective agent. Early sun protection should start throughout early teenage years and continue to build into adulthood. Make your habits early--think of applying sunscreen as just an added part of your everyday beauty routine! 

While we have shared that it is never too early to start taking care of your precious skin, it is also never too late to begin! Try out some mineral products to make sure your skin is soaking up the best formulas. Sunscreen is an added accessory to every outfit, pairing perfectly with your favorite hiking leggings to your 9-5 fit. Aging is a natural part of life, but aging sun damage shouldn’t be. 

From crawling to corporate, sunscreen should be a part of every routine throughout your life’s milestones. Show your skin some love by giving it the best present: protection.
