We’ve been spending a lot of time outdoors this summer. When we aren’t on one of the many mini-trips we had planned, we can usually be found at the river whenever it gets hot. The weather has been amazing so we’ve been there a lot! The other day we were at Costco and I picked up some Neutrogena Wet Skin Sunscreen. It came with a face stick which is really convenient and I was curious about using a spray sunscreen on wet skin. It worked fine and I didn’t think too much about it until we ran out and I bought a different brand to replace it.
We spent the entire day tubing with friends. I was careful to reapply sunscreen often, especially since I have some pretty fair skinned kiddos. Since they were in the water most of the day, their skin was wet when I applied it. I had them wipe the droplets away with their hands before spraying and wait a few minutes before returning to the water but the next day it was pretty clear that the sunscreen didn’t work the same way as the Neutrogena Wet Skin Sunscreens and they were left with minor blotchy sunburns.
I learned my lesson! I’m sticking with Neutrogena Wet Skin Sunscreens from now on! These sunscreens are the first ever water-resistant formulas designed specifically for wet skin application while providing broad spectrum sun protection. They are perfect for wet, sweaty or dry conditions and have been proven to provide full strength protection even on wet skin. It practically goes without saying that this sunscreen is sweat and water resistant too! The Wet Skin formulas are oil-free, PABA free and hypoallergenic. The kids spray is SPF 70+ but the original Wet Skin variety is available in SPF 30, 50 and 85. Suggested retail price ranges from $10.99-$12.99.
Did you know that one in five Americans will develop skin cancer in their life? Luckily, skin cancer is one of the most preventable cancers and with early detection, most skin cancer is curable. The Neutrogena Choose Skin Health campaign, a partnership between Neutrogena and the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery, is dedicated to fighting skin cancer and saving lives through education, early detection, and empowering people to follow sun safe behaviors.
Neutrogena is not only the #1 dermatologist recommended sun care brand but through the Choose Skin Health Campaign it has provided more than 11,000 free skin screenings, donated more than $30 million dollars’ worth of sunscreen product to families in need through a Buy 1 Donate 1 program and diagnosed more than one thousand cases of skin cancer in the US alone since it’s launch in 2009.
This year, Neutrogena partnered with a variety of celebrity ambassadors, including Kerry Washington, to help spread the word about the importance of sun protection by sharing personal #ChooseSkinHealth testimonials on social media. Neutrogena believes that each story makes a difference – and can even help save a life!
