Makeup Bag: Sunscreen

March 16, 2007

It’s Friday, and the sun is shining

There’s nothing like getting 329 spam comments to start the weekend off with an bang. (And this is before we’ve even finished our first soy latte!)

This week the sun has been shining and it’s feeling more and more like spring here in Northern Nevada, which means we need to take that extra step to protect our skin from the sun’s harmful rays. We used to think that foundation or moisturizer with an SPF was enough, but really it’s not. (However, they do give us extra protection, so definitely use them when you can).

For complete broad spectrum sun protection, there’s nothing that compares to La Roche-Posay Anthelios SX. Using a revolutionary formula containing Mexoryl SX and Parsol 1789, Anthelios SX provides the highest daily photo-stable UVA protection available in the US.

Anthelios SX La Roche-Posay

Anthelios SX is a light moisturizer with a non-greasy texture that’s fragrance free and dermatologist-tested. It does not smell like sunscreen, look like sunscreen, or make our face feel like a greased-up sticky mess, as most sunscreens do.

We got ours at our dermatologist’s office for $29. It’s also available to purchase on the La Roche-Posay site.

Seriously, girls. Don’t leave home without it.

The Perfect Pair

Rodan + Fields Perfect Pair

Rodan + Fields Perfect Pair is a wonderful mid-winter booster that delivers serious skin care benefits.

We adore Rodan + Fields Anti-Age Regimen and The Perfect Pair gives us that little extra something-something to make our winter skin glow.

Included in this set is Reverse Exfoliate: Microdermabrasion Paste, a combination of salt, sugar and vitamins C & E that gently exfoliate while reducing environmental damage, and Essentials Protect SPF 30, a lightweight, oil-free lotion that provides ultra protection from the sun’s harmful rays.

The result is incredibly smooth, radiant skin with an even, bright tone.

Definitely a mid-winter must-have.
