Finally, the summer sun is out to stay! I’m excited about the warmer temps which means that I will be spending a lot of time outside! Unfortunately, my son inherited my white skin along with the propensity to get a sunburn. The kids and I recently tried a new sunscreen called Kiss My Face (Who wouldn’t pick that up based on the name alone?!?!?) I am always on the lookout for great sunscreen that covers but doesn’t feel greasy and waterproof is even better! We tried the SPF 30 and the SPF 40 lotions – I loved that they went on smooth and there was not a strong scent. But I didn’t need to re-apply several times a day. Not only is the sunblock great stuff but I also tried the lip balm – it is made with beeswax, coconut oil, Shea Butter and Vitamin E which means it went on smooth and also offers all the sun protection I need all day. Honestly, I wanted to just Kiss My [kids] Face all day – knowing they would be protected from the sun and sunburn.
