Safe Summer Skin Care

Summer is fast approaching!  Soon, neighborhood pools will be opening and people will begin heading to the beach for vacation.  Now is the time to start thinking about how to protect your family’s skin from the sun.  Sunscreen is probably one of the first products that comes to mind when you think about sun protection. There are many different opinions regarding whether chemical sunscreens are more harmful than physical sunscreens.  The Centers for Disease Control recently came out with a report stating that the active ingredient oxybenzone, found in many sunscreens, has been linked to “allergies, hormone disruption and cell damage.” See full report here: http://www.ewg.org/node/26212.  However, the American Academy of Dermatology lists oxybenzone as one of the ingredients to look for in an effective sunscreen 

(http://www.aad.org/media/background/factsheets/fact_sunscreen.htm). 

 

Regardless of which type of sunscreen you choose for your family, there are several other things to do to limit sun damage:  avoid direct sun exposure between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.; wear protective clothing, such as long-sleeved shirts, SPF-treated clothing, hats, and sunglasses; seek shade; make sure you apply (and re-apply) a generous amount of sunscreen 15-30 before going outside, and every two hours after (or more if sweating or going in the water).

 

Visit Moxie Kids (www.moxiekidsonline.com) for all of your sun protection needs.  Find a great selection of swim suits with SPF protection by Floatimini (www.floatimini.com), hats by Sand Cassel Kids (http://www.goorin.com/brands/brands_sandcassel.html), sunscreen (without oxybenzone) by MD Moms (www.mdmoms.com), and UVA/UVB-blocking sunglasses (in-store only).
