Application Tips
Adults
Applying sunscreen should not only become part of your lifestyle, but for your children’s as well. Next time you go outside, just follow these simple guidelines:
- Shake your sunscreen bottle well before using.
- Rub the sunscreen in well to make sure you get even coverage.
- When applying lotion or spray products to your face, rub into hands, then apply to face.
- For highly active individuals, use a waterproof or water-resistant sunscreen, and remember to reapply often. This will ensure you’re safely protected no matter how much you sweat.
Kids
Your children want to go play outside? Here are some guidelines you should look into:
- Before applying sunscreen to children under six months of age, consult a healthcare professional.
- Shake your sunscreen bottle well before using.
- Try continuous spray sunscreen that provides quick application and dries in seconds.
- Rub the sunscreen in well to make sure they get even coverage.
- Choose a waterproof or water-resistant formula. A waterproof formula will keep your children protected even as they perspire. Remember to reapply at least every two hours while children are outdoors.
