After a long 4th of July holiday weekend, we’ve become sun fanatics. Moisturizers and sunscreens are a beach bag must. Here, we’re sharing our leading beauty picks.
L’Oréal Paris Advanced Suncare Collection offers the most superior protection in a range of ultra-convenient forms. It’s formulated with an advanced photostable patented UV filter system, powerful antioxidants and luxurious lightweight textures and the complete range is designed for every skin tone under the sun. Available at www.lorealparisusa.com and at mass, food and drug retailers nationwide, SPF 30 $9.99, SPF 50+ $10.99.
Whether your skin’s personality is extremely dry, dry, slightly dry, normal, combination or slightly oily, Erno Laszlo Firmarine SPF 30 will enhance its firmness and bounce. Its ocean–hued formula is equipped with a key bio-marine ingredient, Spirulina Maxima, a fresh water, blue-green algae prized for its health benefits. The silky cream protects with Vitamins E, C and A, Organic Green Tea, Multi-Mineral Complex and mineral-rich Deep Sea Water to boosts the skin’s immunity (anti-viral, anti-bacterial) all summer long. Available at Nordstrom and ErnoLaszlo.com, $195.
If you opt for a sunscreen that’s weightless but offers daylong protection, H2O Plus Total Source UV Defense Fluid SPF 50 PA+++ blocks up to 98 percent of UVA and UVB rays that damage the skin, working synergistically to help reduce wrinkles, firm, brighten and nourish the skin. The powdery, matte finish creates a perfect canvas for makeup and quickly absorbs into the skin to create a transparent veil of chemical-free UV protection. Available at H2O Plus stores and H2OPlus.com, $65.
