🧴 Best Summer Sunscreens for All Ages

Protecting your skin is a must in summer! Here are top sunscreen picks for every member of the family:

• For Kids:
  Look for mineral-based sunscreens with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Brands like Blue Lizard, Aveeno Baby, and Thinkbaby are gentle and effective.
• For Adults (Face & Body):
  Choose broad-spectrum SPF 30+ options. Try La Roche-Posay Anthelios, Neutrogena Hydro Boost SPF, or Supergoop! for lightweight, non-greasy coverage.

💧 Don’t Forget to Hydrate!

The heat can dehydrate you faster than you realize. Here’s your hydration checklist:

• Carry a reusable water bottle with you
• Set reminders to drink water every hour
• Add fruit slices (lemon, cucumber, berries) to make it more enjoyable
• Avoid sugary or caffeinated drinks that can make dehydration worse

❗How to Tell If You’re Dehydrated:
Watch for these signs:

• Dry lips and mouth
• Dizziness or lightheadedness
• Fatigue or headache
• Dark yellow urine

Tip: If you notice these symptoms, drink water slowly, rest in the shade, and cool down immediately.
