Celebrate Sun Awareness Week with Aveeno, Ombrelle and Coppertone!

It's National Sun Awareness Week and you will be horrified to learn that 1 in every 10 Canadians has never even used sunscreen - which is crazy, it's just so important it is to wear sunscreen every single day - even on those cloudy days when you think you don't need the protection, you do - 70% of all UV rays penetrate through the clouds! Even those of us who are diligent about applying our sunscreen might still not be using enough of it - to completely protect your entire body it is recommended using 2 tablespoons of sunscreen which is approximately the size of a golf ball - so no more excuses, any one of these sunscreens will not only protect, but also leave your skin feeling great:

Aveeno Active Naturals Sensitive Skin Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50 - 80ml - $15.99 - a gentle and effective, water-resistant up to 80 minutes, oil and fragrance-free lotion designed for sensitive skin that contains 100% naturally sourced sunscreen ingredients that form an effective barrier against UVA/UVB rays. With a moisturizing formula containing natural oat extracts that leaves delicate and sensitive skin feeling soothed and nourished.

Garnier Ombrelle Sport Endurance SPF 50+ - 231ml - $19.99 - an oil-free, non-greasy lotion with a water base that enables it to go on clear and provide uniform coverage, even on wet skin for 80 minutes of water and sweat resistance. The water based formula is important as classic oil-based sunscreens can leave gaps in coverage on wet and sweaty skin which means parts of your skin can be losing out on protection!

Also available in SPF 30 in a 231ml or 50ml travel size.

Coppertone ClearlySheer Spray Sunscreen SPF 30 - 142g - $9.99 - with a lightweight, moisturizing formula that feels clean and light, helps keep skin smooth and soft, is water resistant up to 80 minutes and leaves a matte finish and a fresh, clean scent behind.

All are available at drug and mass retailers across Canada.
