MIneral Powder Sunscreen Protects Without The Gooey Mess




Sunscreen. If you believe the skin care experts, then you know you need to wear it everyday.

But maybe you are tired of applying the white gooey stuff the old-fashioned way(photo2) and putting it on 30 minutes before heading out in the sun.

We have something a little bit easier, and really not messy at all. Colorscience is proud of their mineral-based powder sunscreen called, Sunforgettable. Cute name.

Sunforgettable is a really unique beauty product. The ingredients contain immediate 8 hour, waterproof protection. And it's a powder base. No more greasies.

And it comes in 3 shades: Perfectly Clear. All Clear. Almost Clear. Application is easy, too. You can put it on with a brush applicator, a roll-on, or a shaker.

We found some Sunforgettable here at SkinCareRX.com for $50.

And the product is pretty amazing if fair-skinned actresses Cameron Diaz and Anne Heche swear by Sunforgettable.

Whatever you do, just play safe under the sun. And even if you're in the car driving, you still need to wear sunscreen. Facial skin cancers develop more on the left side due to frequent driving, say researchers at St. Louis University.

"We tend to see more skin cancer on the left side of the face---drivers need to be aware of the amount of sun exposure they receive behind the wheel," cautions Dr. Scott Fosko.

All the more reason to be smart and put the sunscreen on. And it looks like mineral-based sunscreen powder is high-tech beauty science.
