May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month... and I'm overdue for my annual trip to the dermatologist for a skin cancer screening.
If you need a check-up too, the Skin Cancer Foundation is making it easy (depending on where you live) thanks to its Road to Healthy Skin Tour. The Tour provides free full body skin cancer screenings and information, as well as sunscreen samples (the Tour is presented by Aveeno and Rite Aid) and coupons.
Speaking of sunscreen, I've always tried to stick to chemical free, mineral formulas for my little one — and let me beat the California Baby drum again and praise the company's fragrance-free sunscreens. But I hate the chalky, Casper-like residue that mineral sunscreens tend to leave, and I confess that lately I've resorted to using easier-to-blend-in chemical formulas, both for myself and my boy.
Not anymore. This summer, I'm trying Lavera Naturkosmetik's Sun 30 spray formula. It's a 100% mineral sun protection formula that's designed for kids and adults with sensitive skin. I'm hoping the spray makes it easier to apply and blend — and thus worth the ridiculous price I paid for it at Whole Foods.
