There’s nothing like a day of soaking up the sun. Despite the intoxicating feeling of the sun on your skin, it’s important to protect yourself from the harmful UV rays while relishing a day at the beach.
While browsing articles on the best and worst sunscreens, I was shocked, horrified, appalled (the list goes on) to learn I’d been using the 3 worst brands for skin protection.
Enter Sun Putty. A diamond in the rough.
Sun Putty is no run-of-the-mill sunscreen. While it protects the skin from UVA/UVB rays, Sun Putty is a natural, non-toxic, gentle sunscreen that nourishes the skin and makes you feel radiant. With hydrating, anti-aging, and anti-acne properties, Sun Putty soothes your skin and can even reduce dark spots over time.
Did I mention it smells like an orange creamsicle? Delish.
I tested the putty out this weekend, and while I tend to burn in the typical areas (shoulders, feet, knees), I was pumped to be burn free after my post-beach rinse-off. I could bare my shoulders without any shame.
Ad campaigns have taught me to trust certain sunscreens over the years, but I’ve been missing out on the true hidden gem – Sun Putty. Lesson learned – always test before you trust – flashy ads don’t always mean high quality. See: the new People Mag commercial (you guys are better than that!), Old Navy advertisements (please), positive articles about Anne Hathaway (bless her publicist for trying).
