Now that summer is officially in full swing, it’s time to up our skin cancer awareness as well as our diligence about suncare and SPF protection, so I have partnered with Neutorgena to tell you about their #ChooseSkinHealth Campaign as well at to host a fabulous summer giveaway that supports this important message.
Did you know that one in five Americans will develop skin cancer in their lifetime? Yet skin cancer is one of the most preventable cancers and with early detection, most skin cancers are curable. Skin cancer typically occurs where sun damage has been accumulated over time. So in order to help spread awareness about the importance of protection and early detection of skin cancer, I have partnered with Neutrogena to encourage you to tweet/post your personal #ChooseSkinHealth messages and take a simple step torwards spreading the word about how everyone can take small steps towards decreasing one of the most preventable forms cancer. Throughout the summer, you can also check out Social.ChooseSkinHealth.com, which will show all of the buzz and ways people are getting involved in this worthwhile cause.
One of the simplest and best ways that I know how to prevent skin cancer is by staying out of direct sunlight whenever possible as well as diligently applying sunblock whenever you are going to be in the sun. And honestly, ever since I can remember, Neutrogena Suncare products have always been my go-to SPF products because they are available everywhere, lightweight and very effective.
Since I love spending time outdoors exercising, I am especially excited about Neutrogena’s latest suncare innovation, CoolDry Sport Sunscreen with MICROMESH™ technology. Finding inspiration in the sweat-wicking fabric of athletic apparel, the scientists at Neutrogena developed this brilliant new suncare technology which creates a breathable barrier on your skin and allows sweat to pass through the sunscreen and evaporate without making your skin feel sticky or greasy. CoolDry Sport allows your skin to breathe and makes it feel cool as you sweat, and better yet it stays in place even when you sweat during the most intense activities. That’s a pretty innovative SPF, especially for those athletic types.
So how would you like to be armed and ready for the summer sun and win a fabulous assortment of Neutrogena’s best Suncare for yourself? Here are the details of this amazing Summer Giveaway:

Stay hydrated and use a sunscreen lip balm:)
My advise is sun screen protection even on cloudy days.
Wear sunglasses and moisturizer with sunscreen
My favorite skincare tip for summer is to stay hydrated inside and out. Also, apply sunscreen any time you will be outdoors.

Use sunscreen all the time and remember to reapply if out long or in the water
I have learned to put sunscreen on the ears. My son blistered last year because we never think about all of the areas that are exposed to the son. Thank you
Use sunscreen everyday, even if its cloudy! You can still get burnt when the sun is hiding!
Always wear sunscreen when you go out of the house.
Try to remember to wear sunscreen on top of your ears. Find a wide brim hat and wear it often.
Buy a sunshade umbrella and keep it in your trunk so you have it at all times.
I love the sun I don’t love skin cancer
My best tip is to use lots of sunscreen and wear makeup with spf.
My best summer skincare tip is to apply the first layer of sunblock right after my shower before going out for the day. After a steamy shower my pores are open and will better receive the lotion. This also ensures that I do not miss any areas where I might (and often do) miss spots because of bathing suit fabric- I prefer all over and even coverage.
I have 2 favorites for summer skin care sunscreen it is a must and water drink lots of it you will keep you skin hydrated
Don’t forget SPF lip balm! people seem to always forget your lips can burn just as easily, as well!
I would have to say moisturizer and sunscreen works best. Also a hat can help.

My tip is to wear sunglasses and a hat to protect your eyes and skin, and to always wear sunscreen outdoors even when it’s a cloudy day!
Do not forget to suncscreen your lips! I also use a facial moisturizer with at least a SPF 30 built in so I won’t get burned while out and about.
Use sunscreen daily and reapply often.
Put on sunscreen when you’re getting ready for the day so that it becomes a habit. Always carry a travel size sunscreen in your purse.
Neutrogena suncreen is my favorite, the Ultra Sheer Dry touch is what I have been buying for years. My tips are to apply before you leave the house. Keep covered when near reflective surfaces like the pool or ocean. Stay under the shade of an umbrella when at the beach. Thank you so much for this giveaway…I wish the price of Neutrogena suncreen was not so high. Thanks for sharing.

I use sunscreen before going to the beach, I reapply while i’m there, and if I do get a sunburn, I apply aloe vera gel or aloe lotion.

The best summer tip anyone can ever give you is to wear sunscreen. The couple minutes it takes it so much easier than months and months of chemo treatments for skin cancer!

I always use a facial moisturizer with SPF. Instead of heavy foundation, I use a tinted mosturizer with SPF. Don’t forget chapstick & sunglasses which are a must.
Sunscreen labeled with “water resistant” indicates that the product will stay on the skin even if it gets wet. Most water resistant labels are followed with “40 minutes” or “80 minutes” and this indicates how long you need to reapply the product again.
mine would be stay hydrated and in the shade too and use aloe plant for sun burns
Use sunscreen every day, year round. It’s worth it!
a lighter moisturizer and lots of sunscreen, so this is a great giveaway. i love neutrogena products, use them every day.

Apply sunscreen liberally 30 minutes before you go outdoors.

Sunscreen must be reapplied throughout the day. Read the label to see how often. Some products only last 80 minutes or less!
Wear a big hat to cover the face. I don’t need to be aging any faster than I already am. And of course lots of sunscreen.
Sunscreen yourself, moisturizer for the lips
Just because it is Summer does not mean that this is the time of year to wear sunscreen. We must wear it 365 days a year to help fight skin cancer and premature aging of the skin. Use a Salicylic Acid Cleanser to get rid of dead skin, but use only at night because it makes you sensitive to the sun. And my last tip is to use a Daily Antioxidant Serum! Serums are nutrient packed and really help decrease wrinkles.
Myself and my kids all use sunscreen outdoors and many times, they put on a hat as well to protect their face
Stay hydrated, use lots of moisturizer after sun exposure, and always use sunscreen outdoors.
