General Protection Tips
1. Choose a sunscreen with advanced protection which provides you with powerful protection. both skin-aging UVA and skin-burning UVB rays. Banana Boat® products with AvoTriplex™ Technology are highly photostable, meaning the ingredients won’t break down under the sun.

2. Sunscreens that contain antioxidants such as Vitamin E condition and moisturize your skin. All Banana Boat® suncare and sunless products contain Vitamin E for healthy-looking skin.

3. Apply sunscreen at least 20 to 30 minutes before going outdoors. If you can do it an hour ahead of time, that’s even better.

4. Know that the sun’s rays are strongest between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM. Protect yourself appropriately. Also know that you should use sunscreen no matter what time you go out to enjoy a bright day.

5. Wear sunscreen even if you are only planning to drive from one indoor location to another. Commonly forgotten exposures include the left arm that sits on the car door ledge when driving, and the rays that warm your face through the sunroof.

6. Winter, spring, summer or fall—sunscreen is needed all year round.

7. Don’t forget to wear protection on cloudy days as well as sunny. UVB rays may be partially blocked by the grayness, but UVA rays are not.

8. Planning to garden or go out for a walk? Wear sun-protective clothing. If you hold fabric up to a light and the light doesn’t shine through, you know you’re safe. Be sure, however, to cover all areas and use sunscreen as well. Make it convenient with a quick spray on like Banana Boat UltraMist Ultra Sunblock SPF 30 Continuous Clear Spray.

9. Don’t forget those often-missed spots like ears, lips, eyes and nose. Banana Boat® Faces Plus Sunblock Stick SPF 30 and Banana Boat® Aloe Vera with Vitamin E SPF 30 Sunscreen Lip Balm can help with this.

10. Tender skin? You can still get sun protection with Banana Boat® Sun Wear™ Daily Sunblock Lotion SPF 30. It’s hypoallergenic, 100% oil-free, non comedogenic, and has a sheer/lightweight feel.
