Celebrate the Beauty of Summer Suncare with Neutrogena

This is sponsored post in collaboration with Neutrogena® and Latina Bloggers Connect. However, all opinions expressed are my own.

SUMMER IS COMING... LOL If you watch Game of Thrones you saw what I did there... But yeah with the brink of Summer around the corner it is that time again, to talk about sun protection. Last year we busted Sun Care Myths with Neutrogena to encourage the use of sunscreen. This year I want to share how and why taking proper suncare steps is important as well how to practice sun safety!

One in five Americans will develop skin cancer in their lives. Yet skin cancer is one of the most preventable cancers and with early detection, most skin cancers are curable. That is why it is imperative to take the proper steps necessary to protect our skin.  

I love my children mean more than to me than I could ever attempt to express, being around for them is my utmost priority so if Mama is healthy and looking fabulous so will her babies. Because skin cancer usually occurs where sun damage has been accumulated over time, here are a few of the things that I do for myself and my family to protect our skin to make we will be both looking and feeling good for our days to come...

• Use a facial moisturizer that comes with spf included 
• Use a foundation that comes with spf included
• Wear sunglasses
• Not stay in the sun too long
• Make sure the children have sunscreen on before leaving the house
• Reapply sunscreen often during outdoor activities, especially on hot days
• Try to stay away from the 12o'clock sun as it can be that strongest
• Use specific sunscreen for different activities. For swimming and outdoor sports/activities like playing volleyball on the beach, building sand castles, or at a water park use NEUTROGENA® Wet Skin or the New Cool Dry Sport to ensure it lasts longer and is more effective. 

Being active outdoors requires a powerful sunscreen to stay protected, but most sunscreens leave a greasy and sticky feeling that makes skin feel hot and suffocated. The scientists at Neutrogena have created an innovative technology that eliminates the “glazed” feeling sunscreens can create with the launch of CoolDry Sport. Superior, breathable protection with HELIOPLEX® and MICROMESHTM technology HELIOPLEX® technology offers superior UVA/UVB protection that is broad spectrum, photostable and cools skin down by 1-2 degrees!

To help spread awareness for this important cause, NEUTROGENA® wants you to share why and how you practice sun safety with the hashtag #ChooseSkinHealth. The more people tweet, post and share their #ChooseSkinHealth stories, NEUTROGENA® will unlock exclusive content from our celebrity Brand Ambassadors on why they’re joining in this effort. Each story, picture or post is a simple step forward in the fight against skin cancer!

On May 19, NEUTROGENA will take over Twitter to spark online discussions with Brand Ambassadors, dermatologists and experts with helpful tips and practical advice on how to practice safe suncare. Throughout the summer, people can also check out the Choose Skin Health hub on Social. ChooseSkinHealth.com, which will show all of the social buzz and ways people are getting involved. Twitter Party RSVP.
