Let The Sun In: Springtime Sun May Pack Less Heat, Its Rays Still Have Effects

Protect Your Lips
Our lips are highly sun sensitive. Lipscreen Shine SPF 40 by Supergoop uses antioxidant-rich grape-seed extract with a blend of nourishing shea butter and coconut, sesame, and sunflower oils, $22, at Bluemercury (Town Center Plaza). 

For moisturizing the lips, Lip Sleeping Mask Intense Hydration with Vitamin C by Lineage is not only for bedtime. It’s an effective, soothing balm that’s healing all day, $24, at all Sephora locations.


Shield Your Skin
Mara Sea Kale Mineral Sunscreen Serum SPF 30, $52, is a clean oil made with zinc oxide, which shields skin from UV rays leaving no white cast, plus vitamin C-rich blue sea kale that fights the look of photo aging and fine lines, along with sea aster, which reduces the appearance of skin sensitivity and redness, including sunburns. Available at all Sephora locations. 

Antioxidant-rich Josh Rosebrook Nutrient Day Cream SPF 30, $55, is designed for everyday nourishment and sun protection. It is also powered by zinc oxide and is infused with aloe vera, grape seed, chamomile, green tea, and calendula, providing lightweight protection with no heavy white cast involved. Available at Welwythn (Shops at Prairie Village).


Love Your Locks
Helm Salon hair stylist Kelli Jo Bebermeyer recommends two reliable hair products for smoothing and conditioning. “My go-to is the Ever Oil by Reverie at $52. A little goes a long way, and the added hydrating benefits makes this product a staple for any hair type. 

“For conditioning, the Sweet Spirit Leave In Conditioner by Innersense for $26 is the perfect hair prepping leave-in spray. It is especially effective for finer hair with its lightweight, hydrating formula that protects hair from the sun.” Both available at Helm Salon (Downtown).
