Sunscreen for Skiing, Rock Climbing, Mountain Biking, Boarding

High Altitude Sports Booster Pack

Hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing, skiing, boarding, mountaineering -- you really punish your skin. Sun, wind, altitude – it couldn’t get much worse.

You need a lot of protection. And, it has to be long-lasting because who has time to reapply when hanging off a rock face or trying to stay ahead of avalanches in the back country?

This Booster Pack contains two sunscreens that, when layered, offer as complete UVA & B coverage as you can get without wearing the completely white zinc oxide paste. These stay on in punishing conditions, and the Colorescience powder sunscreen is very easy to reapply.

High Altitude Sports Booster Pack

All Products: $84.95	I put this Booster Pack together to give great sun and weather protection at altitude, without a lot of fussiness. You can use the lotion, or the powder, or you can layer them for maximum protection. You can buy the entire Pack of three products, or browse the individual products below.
$26.00	Sunscreen Fallene CoTZ SPF 58 This sunscreen is a hard-working, high quality product at a great price. It's a mineral sunscreen, with 10% titanium dioxide and 3% zinc oxide, so it gives extremely effective UVA and UVB protection, without all the chemical sunscreen ingredients. It has no fragrances and is good for sensitive skin. Fallene has tinted this slightly, and put the minerals in a lighter base, so it doesn't make you look chalky. It's water resistant and won't sting your eyes.
$50.00	Powder Sunscreen Colorescience SunForgettable Powder SPF 30 - All Clear This is a great invention, and I use it all the time. It comes in a small tube, with a self-contained brush. You just shake the powder down, and brush on the powder. The powder stays on your skin, and the high zinc and titanium content gives you great UVA and UVB blocking. Great for a humid climate (or oily skin), because it goes on dry and leaves no oily, greasy sheen. Expensive, but worth it. Layer it over a sunscreen lotion for maximum protection at altitude or in intense sun.
$8.95	Lip Sunscreen Fallene Lip CoTZ SPF 45 High quality, no frills zinc/titanium lip protection. You don't want sun-burned or wind-burned lips!
