Don't get burned when having too much fun in the sun
There's nothing better than feeling that first hit of heat on your skin after enduring a long, cold winter. Along with vastly improving our disposition, the sun also plays an important role in physical health. As rays hit our body, receptor cells in our skin convert sunlight into vitamin D, which helps bodies regulate calcium and phosphate, the two essential nutrients that keep teeth, bones and muscles healthy. But too much sunshine isn't good for us either. Ultraviolet (UV) rays can damage the skin, causing it to burn. This increases the risk of melanoma, the most dangerous form of skin cancer. Even with a hat and umbrella at your disposal, using sunscreen goes a long way in preventing sunburn and reducing the risk of skin cancer. (David Goldman / The Associated Press files) It's a tricky balance getting sunlight for the body to generate its own vitamin D while trying to avoid getting burned, which is where sunscreen comes in. But which one to buy? The ones packaged in glossy tubes? Or maybe sticks, similar to deodorant, might be better? Classic lotions are great for the home but not so much when travelling. And can a spray guarantee even coverage? Method of delivery isn't the only thing to consider — decoding labels is a challenge in itself. While most are aware that SPF means Sun Protection Factor, do we all understand what the numbers next to it denote? And what's the difference between UVA and UVB rays? Is broad spectrum the way to go? And does mineral work better than chemical or is it the other way round? (See sidebar) You also have to figure out what it feels like on skin. Is it oily? Greasy? Does it make you look like you've taken a dip in a vat of lard or does it leave you with an ashen pallor, that dreaded white cast that haunts those blessed with an excess of melanin? Do you smell like you've been doused in chemicals or is it so perfumed it makes you choke? As ever, we are here to help. The Free Press team tested five brands of sunscreen to figure out what we like best. SPF 50, $15.49 for 89 ml Blue Lizard Kids Mineral Sunscreen Lotion They say: Formulated with Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide, which offers both UVA and UVB protection. It's also a fragrance-free, paraben-free and phthalates-free formula. But does it live up to the hype? We say: This tube sunscreen has a great consistency — not too thick, not too runny and it was easy to apply without much stickiness. It does take a bit of work to really rub it into the skin, but that's actually a good thing because you can easily see where you've applied and spots you've missed. Once it absorbs, it's totally matte. I put this sunscreen through the ringer with my 22-month-old; two hours at the zoo, a pool afternoon and a sweaty trip to the park. I reapplied as directed — the label states one application gives 80 minutes of protection — and despite being very fair-skinned, my little guy didn't burn at all (note: he was also wearing a hat at all times). The sunscreen was applied to his face and body, and his skin showed no signs of irritation. This brand also has a 'baby' formulation, the only difference being the one for kids is marketed as slightly more water- and sweat-resistant. As mentioned, he was in a pool for an hour or more and it seemed to stand up to the water just fine. I will definitely continue using this product throughout the summer. The only con is the price; at around $15.50 for an 89 ml tube, it's a bit steep. ★★★★ out of five — Erin Lebar SPF 50, $22.99 for 42 g Aveeno Protect + Soothe Mineral Sunscreen Stick for Sensitive Skin They say: Aveno Protect + Soothe Mineral Sunscreen Stick is designed for easy application, even on the go. It's formulated with friendly ingredients for sensitive skin, such as naturally sourced Zinc Oxide and pure oat essence. But does it live up to the hype? We say: This broad spectrum stick is pretty good. The mechanics of it are exactly like deodorant — pull cap, twist knob, slide on — except you're putting it all over your body. I generally prefer an aerosol if I need more full-body coverage — i.e. in a bathing suit — but this is a really good option to have in your bag because it can't leak. This paraben- and phthalates- free formula glides on easily, especially after it has been warmed by your skin, and has a barely-there scent the way most 'fragrance free' items do, which is almost a drawback because I like the smell of sunscreen. The Zinc Oxide leaves a slight white cast which allows you to see missed spots and absorbs easily when rubbed in a bit. Dries clear: not shiny and, crucially, not sticky, so you won't have to experience a sensory nightmare putting clothes over top of it. (Just me?) It makes your skin feel soft and moisturized. Must be that 'pure oat essence.' It's also water resistant for 80 minutes. I didn't wear it in the water, but I wore it on the water during an hour-long boat tour last summer and didn't burn. As with all sunscreen, you have to make sure you're wearing more than you think you need. I originally bought this for travel because, top tip: much like non-gel stick deodorant, stick sunscreen is not considered a liquid (it's measured in grams) and therefore does not have to be Tetrised into your clear, one-litre liquids bag in order to ride in your carry-on luggage. Of course, you are at the whims of any given security personnel, but it's been no trouble for me. ★★★★ out of five — Jen Zoratti SPF 4011, $49 for 50 ml Vasanti Sun's Up! Tinted Mineral Sunscreen They say: This 100 per cent mineral sunscreen for the face promises broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection to protect and combat against sun damage, as well as target and fade dark spots over time. But does it live up to the hype? We say: Sunscreen and I are not friends. There are countless lotions around purporting to leave no white cast but it's not true. I have tried so many to no avail. Both chemical and mineral formulations stain my skin a ghostly white and no amount of rubbing in helps. So imagine my delight when I spotted this dinky little tube online by Canadian-owned cosmetics and skincare brand Vasanti, whose products are created for those with diverse skin tones. Mineral sunscreens are infamous for making everyone, not just those of us blessed with brown skin, look chalky, but this number did nothing of the sort. Much to my initial alarm, the cream is tinted at least five shades lighter than my skin. However, it requires hardly any rubbing in and sinks in beautifully to my moisturized face. It feels rich but not heavy, and my face felt protected when out and about. In fact, I can't find anything wrong with it other than its eye-watering price tag. At $49 for such a tiny amount this isn't the most wallet-friendly option. Best I start saving up now in case they're thinking of making a version for the whole body. I would've give this five stars but for the price. ★★★★ 1/2 stars out of five — AV Kitching SPF 30, $20.99 for 141 g Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Body Mist They say: A non-greasy spray available in SPFs 30, 45 and 60, this is an effective broad-spectrum protection spray against sun's aging UVA and burning UVB rays, in an ultra-light, non-greasy finish. But does it live up to the hype? We say: This sunscreen is a dream to apply. The mist feels refreshingly cool on a hot day and the nozzle angle creates good coverage, making application simple and speedy. There is some inevitable product waste due to overspray. I've used this and other spray sunscreens in the past and find the canisters run out much faster than their cream counterparts. The 'ultra sheer' in the name is apt. It's very lightweight to the point of being imperceptible. This screen goes on clear and dries quickly to a light matte shimmer. There's also no offensively tropical or even notable aroma. Despite the light touch, this spray is effective. I've had minor redness from missed spots (the clear application can make it hard to see), but no major burns while wearing Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Body Mist. ★★★★ out of five — Eva Wasney SPF 30, $15 for 177 ml Sun Bum Original Sunscreen Lotion They say: This moisturizing sunscreen formula will protect your skin from harmful UVA/UVB rays while enriching your skin with Vitamin E, an antioxidant that helps to neutralize free radicals, which are the main cause of premature skin aging. Broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection, hypoallergenic, oxybenzone and octinoxate free, cruelty free, vegan, oil free, paraben free, gluten free, PABA free, water resistant (80 minutes). But does it live up to the hype? We say: I always go for a lotion as as I've been burned (literally) before by sprays, whose application feels dodgy to me. This is quite a creamy, thick forumla that looks as if it's going to take forever to soak in, but it actually goes on very smoothly, absorbs well and leaves your skin with a nice glow — not entirely matte, but not greasy (an improvement on my usual Hawaiian Tropic, which has faint sparkles, so you look like Edward in Twilight). It has a mild but very pleasant banana scent; the company actually makes an air freshener for fans of the fragrance. I am prone to burning, especially on my chest. I wore this all day at the beach (about six hours in the sun, reapplied once after swimming) and not a hint of a burn, not even on my nose, which often gets red. It's more expensive than what I usually buy, but you get what you pay for in this case. I will be trying the face formula, as I really like the texture and smell. Note: When they say not to apply near your eyes, they are not joking. I did sweat some off into my eye and it watered for the entire day and was visibly irritated — but that's on me. ★★★★ 1/2 out of five — Jill Wilson AV KitchingReporter AV Kitching is an arts and life writer at the Free Press.

How Lifeguards Avoid Sunburns (and Treat Them When They Happen)
Wearing sunscreen is an extremely important part of sun safety, but if you plan to spend long stretches of time outside, reapplying it multiple times throughout the day is just as critical as putting it on in the first place. 'Many individuals apply sunscreen when they first arrive at the beach but forget to reapply after swimming or prolonged sun exposure, which leaves them vulnerable,' Bernard Fisher, the director of health and safety for the American Lifeguard Association, told me over email. 'Sun safety is an ongoing habit, not a one-time action.' On average, King spends anywhere from eight to 10 hours a day out in the sun. At the beginning of her shift, she slathers herself in the same sunscreen she's been using for the last ten years: Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion. King opts for the physical sunscreen by Blue Lizard for her skin, which can be easily irritated by the chemical sunscreens she's tried in the past. It goes on thick and can leave a bit of a white cast behind, but King said she doesn't mind because it reminds her that she's protected. During a typical shift, she'll reapply three to four times, depending on the length of a shift and the day's UV index. (Check the National Weather Service website to see your area's UV index.) To ensure her sunscreen doesn't turn into a soupy mess, she stores it in a pouch that she keeps tucked out of direct sunlight. 'Sometimes, I'll even throw it in my lunch box so that it stays cold,' she added. King swears by the tinted Vertra Sunscreen Face Stick SPF 38, which she says provides a skin-smoothing finish and uses it as her main source of face coverage. (We've previously reported that it's trickier to get full protection from stick sunscreens than lotions; the American Academy of Dermatology recommends four passes back and forth if you're using a stick.) 'Honestly, it kind of looks like I'm wearing makeup when I have it on,' King told me during a phone interview. 'If I have to go somewhere right after work and I still have sunscreen on my face, I don't even care because it makes my skin look amazing.' King says the brand is a staple in the California surf community. 'Pretty much everyone that I work with uses it,' she added, regardless of their gender. The Vertra face stick comes in a handful of shades; King likes to start the season with ehukai beige, eventually switching to the kona gold later on as her skin develops a bit of a tan. On her lips, she likes to use Vertra's Coconut Sunscreen Lip Balm SPF 15 unless 'it's a crazy high UV index day,' in which case she'll swipe her sunscreen stick directly over her lips for more protection. Dubinski's go-to body sunscreen is Supergoop Play Everyday Lotion SPF 50, a longtime Wirecutter pick. She likes that it doesn't feel tacky or greasy on her skin, and, most importantly, she loves the way it smells. She used to dread smelling like traditional sunscreen — now she doesn't mind Supergoop's scent at all. She wears sunscreen every day, even if she's not working. To remind herself to apply it whenever she leaves the house, she likes to keep an 18-ounce pump bottle of Supergoop Play by her keys. 'For sensitive areas — like around the hands, the tops of the knees, the backs of the ears — zinc oxide is really the way to go,' Dubinski said of her go-to Badger lotion, which is one of our sunscreen picks for physical and reef-safe protection. It still leaves behind a slight white cast, but Dubinski said that's the sacrifice she makes for highly effective zinc oxide sunscreen. 'It's not about vanity,' she said. Dubinski finds it helpful to carry a selection of sunscreens when she's working on film or television sets as an EMT. Tommi Dubinski More often than not, the type of sunscreen that works best for any given individual comes down to personal preference. When Dubinski is on a TV or film set as an EMT, she likes to keep an array of physical and chemical options in her emergency kit, including Sun Bum Original SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion, Neutrogena Sheer Zinc Face Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50, and Banana Boat Sport Ultra Spray SPF 30. 'I always have a selection of different types of sunscreens on hand because I know first-hand how long it can take to find a sunscreen that you actually want to wear,' she said. 'And even though I don't find spray bottle sunscreen as effective, I know that some people prefer it, so I always have [a sprayable option] because something is always better than nothing.' Werneth also keeps spray sunscreen on hand to use in a pinch. 'I put the stuff in my hair — I fill my palm up and I scrub it into my scalp as if it were hair gel,' he said of his hack, which he employs mostly as a last resort when he knows he'll be in the water without a hat. 'My hair will come out all spiked up and I'll look like Billy Idol, you know, but I don't care.' (The Skin Cancer Foundation says hats and 'any type of sunscreen that works for your face' are your best bets for scalp protection.)

20 Best Mineral Sunscreens Reviewers Love
A Sun Bum sunscreen that reviewers say absorbs super quickly, which can be a rare find in the mineral sunscreen world. The fragrance-free formula is safe for sensitive skin and it's even designed to be used as a matte primer under makeup. The wildly popular Shiseido Clear Sunscreen Stick, which might just be THE gold standard in the solid sunscreen department. No really, it's the top-selling sunscreen stick in the US! So why do people love it? Reviewers say it's truly invisible once applied to the skin, and it's formulated to never leave a white cast, even when you sweat! It also includes the high-end ingredients Shiseido is known for, like soy lecithin and licorice extract to help brighten and even out your complexion. Cetaphil's Sheer Mineral Sunscreen Face Drops — it's truly one of those Sephora-quality at drugstore-prices products. It has the lightweight, serum-like texture you'd expect from a high-end formula and also packs in some vitamin E to lock in moisture. It's also sensitive-skin friendly and dries down to a matte finish, so you won't have to worry about an overly shiny look. Or Cetaphil's Sheer Mineral Sunscreen Stick, which is super convenient for swiping on when you're in a hurry to take a walk before the sun goes down. The thicker balm-like formula makes it especially great for areas like the lips and eyes — because tasting liquid sunscreen and rubbing your stinging eyes are not on the summer agenda. Thinksport's mineral sunscreen is perfect for any hikes or biking trips you have planned — it's designed to stay on your skin even when you're sweating up a storm! One reviewer even called it "the best body sunscreen," and more than 5,000 other reviewers seem to agree. Plus, the fragrance-free formula is made with sensitive skin in mind! Blue Lizard's mineral sunscreen that includes organic aloe to help soothe sensitive skin. It's also water-resistant for up to 80 minutes, so you can splish and splash like a carefree lizard for more than an hour. That's the kind of summer you deserve!! Or Blue Lizard's sunscreen stick that's also made with sensitive skin in mind. Aloe is the very first ingredient, which will help keep it from getting irritated — because greasy, red, itchy skin will certainly ruin a perfect beach day. A lightly tinted sunscreen from dermatologist-fave brand Cerave, which might be one of your best bets in the drugstore price range. There are only three shades to choose from, but each is designed to seamlessly blend into a variety of skin tones, so don't worry if it looks a little too light or dark out of the bottle. Like almost all CeraVe products, this one includes ceramides to help restore the skin barrier and hyaluronic acid to keep your skin from drying out while you're frolicking in the sun. Or the CeraVe sunscreen stick that comes in an ultra-portable tube that's practically begging for a spot in your pocket. It's formulated with a micro-fine form of zinc oxide so it spreads easily and remains undetectable on your skin. It's also oil- and fragrance free, so those with sensitive skin can swipe it without worry. A lightweight sunscreen from popular Korean beauty brand Innisfree that packs in an amazing bonus feature — a green tint to help neutralize redness! This ~satin~ finish also makes it a perfect base for makeup, so you can go ahead and skip the primer. An SPF 46 EltaMD face sunscreen, which reviewers say is a game changer for acne-prone and sensitive skin since it absorbs super quickly without any residue. The inclusion of niacinamide helps reduce redness and irritation, and it's also a perfect base for makeup, thanks to its fast-absorbing formula. Supergoop! Mattescreen with a buildable tint that's so mattifying and blurring, many reviewers say they skip makeup when wearing it (although it does work perfectly as a primer!). It goes on whipped and airy, so it'll basically feel like there's nothing there. SPF: 40Promising review: "Finally a MATTE sun product from Supergoop! — A brand that really works for me. I am so happy with this — it feels like NOTHING and mattes down like a primer, but it's SPF and tinted. I am very fair-skinned, burn easily, and so far (one week of using daily) nothing but clear matte skin." —truth alwaysGet it from Amazon for $24+ (available in two sizes). Tatcha's The Silk Sunscreen, which will make you forget everything you knew about the thick, pasty mineral sunscreens of yesteryear. Reviewers say this is downright luxurious thanks to its silky-smooth finish, fast-absorbing formula, and a slight tint that helps to minimize any white cast. The Anthelios Tinted Sunscreen from beloved French pharmacy brand La Roche-Posay. This one is oil-free, so it's super duper lightweight and extra friendly to your pores. Some reviewers have even had luck using it to cover redness from rosacea and irritation. Lightweight with decent coverage?? I believe we've finally found the actual definition of je ne sais quoi. Dr. Jart's Every Sun Day is a must-try if a matte finish is at the top of your list for sunscreen must-haves. Reviewers say this one looks white when you first apply it, but don't be alarmed — if you use the recommended dime-size amount, it should blend in naturally after a few seconds of massaging it in. We love a less-is-more formula! Or! A Dr. Jart+ SPF 40 sunscreen stick that's not only super convenient, but also glides across your skin without ruining your makeup. 🤯 It's also mattifying and pore-blurring (oh, and moisturizing thanks to the hyaluronic acid!), so this is basically the ultimate touch-up companion. Eucerin Tinted Mineral Sunscreen, enriched with five antioxidants that'll help protect your skin from any long term sun damage. It's also formulated with hypoallergenic zinc oxide, perfect for sensitive skin and daily usage! InnBeauty Project's Mineral Sun Glow that truly delivers on the glowy promises in its name. If you're tired of sunscreens making you look matte and flat, this was basically formulated just for you. You'll even get a dose of vitamin C to help brighten your skin tone and some peptides to plump and firm. A water-resistant ~Face Shield~ from Colorscience, which features tiny beads of pigment that "bloom" when you rub the product between your hands. The four shades are designed to be flexible to adapt to a variety of skin tones, and it's easily buildable if you like fuller coverage. Neutrogena's Mineral Ultra Sheer stick that's designed specifically with sensitive skin in mind, so it's perfect for anyone whose skin breaks out at the mere mention of SPF. The zinc oxide-based formula is designed to absorb super quickly and is made without any added fragrances that might lead to irritation.
