This is it, my fellow four-eyed friends! These stay on, they're lightweight, and they work. Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Moisturizing Face SPF 60 Serum sure to do its very darndest to protect your skin (without a white cast) no matter how much you're out in the sun this summer.

An adjustable gardening bench designed with over-attentive gardeners in mind. If you end up spending too much time crouched down and stressing out your knees while tending to your seedlings, the padding and handles on this are here to help! This is also adjustable and raises to become a seat, which is great when you need a break from working in the backyard, OR as the perfect portable seat for your next fishing trip, like the reviewer below. A lightweight, fast-drying towel — this repels sand instead of attracting it like most beach towels do, so you won't get covered in sand while lounging on the beach!

She wears them during forest school with her dresses to protect her legs." —RoxAnne C."This shirt is a great alternative to a cotton shirt, especially for humid and hot climates.

We live in New England where there are a lot of ticks, and we appreciate the light colors so that we can easily monitor and make sure nothing's crawled onto our kiddo." —Jacquelyn the leggings for $34.95 (available in two colors and sizes 4T–14Y) and the T-shirt for $24.95 (available in five colors and sizes 4T–10Y); both from Reima.

A Cruiser City from Veer that'll make packing up and heading out the door on summer days SO much easier.

Olay Super Serum Body Wash (the body wash version of Olay's cult favorite facial Super Serum) — this is so soothing it's basically gonna feel like giving your dry skin a niacinamide-forward bottle of red, with notes of shea butter and a whiff of collagen peptides that'll treat your ~full body~ to 24-hour hydration when summer has you feeling dehydrated from head to toe. Ahhh, drink that all in. A cork yoga bundle from 42 Birds for folks who are working hard to embrace outdoor exercise this season. The cork material is non-slip and boasts anti-microbial and self-cleaning properties to help resist mold and mildew (eliminating the bad smells often soaked into our yoga mats). This is super lightweight, so you can comfortably carry the whole kit to the park, where you can enjoy your yoga in some fresh air — rather than smelling the feet of the person doing downward dog in front of you in a cramped classroom. A refillable roll-on sponge sunscreen applicator sure to make putting on sunscreen (both on your kids *and* on yourself) less of a chore. This goes on fast and blends in easily — no mess required! A Java Sock that'll do the two most important things for your beloved iced coffees ( drinks. I know people drink other drinks)! 1) It'll keep that caramel almond milk cold brew cold for ages — hours, according to reviewers — and 2) It'll keep your drink from sweating into your cupholder or all over your desk. It's a cruel twist of fate that iced coffee sweats as much as we do in the summer. A pair of top-rated bike shorts (we're talking 60,000 5-star reviews, folks) with so many available styles you can buy several and make them a versatile staple in your summer wardrobe. Have a pair for working out, a pair for daily 'fits, and some to wear under skirts and dresses to keep your thighs from chafing during sweat season. Burt's Bees sunburn soother made with aloe and coconut oil to soothe and hydrate your skin if, despite your best efforts, you end up with a brutal sunburn sometime this summer.

A Coola scalp and hair sunscreen mist with SPF 30 so you don't get dandruff and dry skin peeling from a sunburned hair part. Not only will it help prevent sunburns, but it's also formulated to protect your hair from sun damage. Use this as the finishing touch on your daily haircare and you're gonna be g2g! Great. Or a lightweight UPF 50+ protective running hat to keep your face and head extra protected while also keeping the sun out of your eyes. Spiffy. And! A UPF 50 protective neck drape you can attach to the back of your new cap and spare the back of your neck from a brutal burn. That spot is the easiest to forget when applying sunscreen. Save yourself the drama and start using this instead! A hip seat sling that'll feel much cooler than having your child against your chest like in traditional carriers. If your kid cries as if the floor is lava when you try getting them to walk on their own, this side sling is a brilliant way to carry them on a hot day. A sand removal bag so you can "dust off" you and your kids before everyone gets into the car after a day at the beach. The bag is filled with a talc-free, reef-friendly powder that will ensure the sand stays outside, where it belongs. An anti-blister balm that'll keep you from feeling de-feet-ed by painful blisters that come from sweaty feet during the long walking tours you have planned during your summer vacation. And finally, a KitchenAid shaved ice attachment (you read that right!!) for giving your KitchenAid a new job when it's way too hot to be baking. Snow cone season is officially in full swing!
