I love this too because it keeps everything covered as it should so I can wear it to work. AC gives me ear aches so I have had to find appropriate summer wear for work :)

I sometimes wear a zip up hoodie with this or a cardigan, or a t-shirt. Usually a zip up but they are super cute. Might order another colour this year :)

I often pair this with a zip up again, or I have a blue stripped blouse I wear over it too if it's really warm out with a little pair on white sneakers... Super cute summer outfit, can even toss on a ball hat :)

This one too, another great fit for at the office or out and about. When I worked in retail that's one thing I gained was wanting versatile clothing to dress up or down :) Some may call it cheap i call I frugal :)

It doesn't matter if your skin burns or don't burn, it should always be protected from the rays :) Some of my fav Sunscreens for me and the youngsters :) Gotta Protect Ourselves :)

Bought this for one person and one person only and that was Jaxon, so he could have his own not make a mess with lotion and hopefully not waste as much :)
THINK Baby Mineral Based Sunscreen Stick
 
Crystal Watkins profile picture
I purchased this towards the end of the summer last year and didn't use it much as we don't get long or great summers here in Newfoundland. Don't know if it matters if its almost a year old I'm still going to use it and really try it out this summer ...

I always have a spray sunscreen and a lotion sunscreen. I apply a thick coat of the lotion sunscreen on at home and then i will reapply the spray one throughout the day while at the beach or park. Much easier application when out and about :)
Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Body Mist Sunscreen Spray

This gives me such a pretty colour, I'm fair so I always apply a thin layer of sunscreen on before applying this and I get a great colour :)

Ordered these because they were a good price but I could also give everyone their own colour too and no one should need to fight over nothing, so far so good. Might order a second set and then i can bide myself some laundry time hahaha
