Sunscreens for Water Sports | Swiming, Surfing, Scuba

Water Sports Booster Pack

You could live in the water – you like it that much. Swimming, lifeguarding, surfing, boogie boarding, scuba diving -- you love being in and around lakes or the ocean. The only problem is that your favorite water sports are wrecking your skin. How can you really stay protected when you’re in the water so much?

This Pack provides two different sunscreens geared to your water sports that won’t wear off, are easy to apply, and won’t get into your eyes. You might be surprised that I chose a powder sunscreen, but I have used the powder on myself and children in and out of water, and it stays on extremely well.

If you are in the water for long periods or at altitude or in a tropical place, you should layer the powder sunscreen over the lotion for maximum protection.

Water Sports Booster Pack

All Products: $84.95	I chose these products to protect you when you are spending lots of time in and around the water. The sunscreens can be layered in intense sun or in the tropics. 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!
