go natural

If you thought trying to get your two-year-old daughter to get dressed was a challenge, try lotioning up the kids every day for camp! Talk about a stressful morning! JASON Naturals Sunbrellas Collection makes it easier with six all natural, non-greasy sunblocks that really feel like they're offering the maximum protection. Try Mineral Based Natural Sunblock SPF 30, Kids Natural Sunblock SPF 45, Family Natural Sunblock SPF 45, Facial Natural Sunblock SPF 20, Sport Natural Sunblock SPF 45 or Lip Balm SPF 25. They go on smoothly and absorb quickly, which means you can get them dressed and off to camp in...well, let's just say quicker than with other brands that take a while to rub in. I throw the tubes in their bags so they can reapply during the day. The best part: You'll have relief knowing they're protected when you're not around. Check out www.jason-natural.com for more info.

let the sun shine

When it comes to kids and sunscreen, what's easiest and fastest triumphs. Slather it on and get them on their way--before they get too antsy and wriggle away from you. So in these challenging days when you're trying to get them off to camp on time, SuperGoop comes to the rescue with some great news delivery systems. My favorite: SPF 30 Sunscreen Swipes ($34 for a pack of 40, or $12 for eight travel packs). They contain zinc, a powerful UV protector, so they're great for sensitive skin and you can use them on their face or body. I also love the SPF 30 Everyday UV Protection Spray ($24) in a convenient pump spray that lets you get to hard to reach places like behind ears and necks. It's water-resistant and moisturizing and has Parsol 1789 which offers broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection. Go to www.supergoop.com to stock up for summer and the rest of the year.

It's unique microSPRAY® mist ensures a silky, even coverage for users of all ages. This non-aerosol ultrafine mist dries quickly, and allows skin to breathe.
