skin care products, organic skin careOver here in Southern California, a person would have the best luck betting on sunny afternoons. While there have been spring showers that brought grey clouds into the area, they never last more then a couple of days. This past weekend I sat poolside at a friend’s apartment while the smells of BBQ chicken and skin care products wafted around the patio deck. I was sure to apply sunscreen as my family has a history of melanoma but for some reason I still after coming home realized how burnt my arms were. My face had a nice tan line from where I had been wearing a hat but apart from my outer arms, the rest of my body escaped being burnt. Next time I’ll have to try stronger sunscreen products.

My friend’s girlfriend turned me on to a retailer she has been using for organic skin care products called Beauty and Fitness at http://www.beautyandfitnessproducts.com/. There I found a section housing what looks to be a quality sunscreen. Pictured above, the Elemis Sun Protection by Elemis Women Ice Cool Sun Lotion Europe SPF 8 / USA SPF 12 4.4 oz is designed for the opposite sex but could work great for me too. It is sort of embarrassing to admit but I have extremely sensitive skin for a guy. Over the years, I have found skin care products popular with women to work the best because they have a more sensitive makeup then men.

I have always believed that you get what you pay for. This sunscreen looks to be very high grade. And for my skin which reacts insane this time of year with all the pollen in the air and UV rays dropping down, having the right skin products is really important. Part of the reason I buy these sorts of products online is the time savings but also the cash savings and the fact I don’t have to go through the occasional weird looks teen cashiers give me while buying a woman oriented skin care products.

I have many more BBQs, days at the pool and beach trips planned over the next few months. The sun is shining now and it is making me extremely happy to get out of work early to experience all that spring time fun. I’m sure there are many other people who also can’t wait to get outdoors. This is such a wonderful time of the year. Skin care products are even more important to me now then they were in the winter or fall.
