NO-AD Common Sense Suncare Review.

NO-AD Sun Care was introduced in 1962 with the concept of providing consumers with quality sun care products that are twice the size as national brands for the same price – all with “no TV ads”, no hype and no gimmicks. NO-AD has been protecting families for generations with great quality products at a great value.

NO-AD has received top marks from America's leading consumer review magazine. NO-AD has been picked four times, including in 2015, as a "Best Buy" for its exceptional value and once as a "Recommended" sunscreen for its superior protection.

NO-AD is making news again in 2016 by becoming the first mass sun care brand to go Paraben-Free and Retinyl Palmitate-Free! When it comes to value and common sense, NO-AD has no competition.

My Thoughts:

Hearing great reviews about NO-AD over the years, I was very excited to review the line! Usually when summer rolls around, I grab sunscreen infused makeup and whatever brand is on the sale display at the time. Having naturally pale skin that is prone to burning over tanning, having a solid sun care regime is constantly being talked about with me by my doctors.

With the hot and humid weather this season, having NO-AD by my side has been a wonderful feeling. I love the fact that it is a formula that is thick, but goes on smooth. I was so impressed by the size of the products. I had plenty to go around for my family when we were outdoors. Comparing the size and pricing along with other lines, NO-AD is ideal! The Paraben and Retinyl Palmitate free formulas are a relief, on top of the array of options available. No matter if you need a sports or kids line, NO-AD has you covered!

If you are looking for a sun protection product for any occasion, I would highly recommend NO-AD! You skin will thank you!

My Thoughts

I love always loved Banana Boat because it doesn't have a heavy chemical smell so like many other sunblocks and it doesn't leave my skin feeling sticky.  The DryBalance line is the best one I've tried so far.  Rubbing this onto your skin is a pleasure. It rubs in evenly, and feels more like lotion than sunblock. Your skin feels soft after using it and it doesn't leave behind any greasy residue.  For my kids, the Kids Sport is a great option. Even in the spring, I use sunblock on them when there outside at the park or playing soccer. This sun block is tear free and has amazing staying power. Like the DryBalance, it feels like lotion. For quicker coverage when you're in a rush, dry the spray bottles.

The varieties I tried were SPF 50 and SPF 30, and these two formulas are perfect for the summer when we're at the beach. With the SPF 30, I can still get a little color without having to worry about getting burned. For my kids and their more sensitive skin, the 50 SPF is the safer choice. They are also water resistant for up to 80 minutes.  It's a great choice whether you're spending the day at the beach or taking a walk along the nature trail. 

If you'd like to learn more about the DryBalance and Kids Sport line or any of the different options at Banana Boat, be sure to visit their website. Look for these products in store nationwide throughout the spring and summer seasons.

I love Australian Gold because it doesn't have a heavy chemical smell so like many other sunblocks.  Rubbing this onto your skin is a pleasure. It rubs in evenly, and feels more like lotion than sunblock. Your skin feels soft after using it and it doesn't leave behind any greasy residue.

It worked great both in and out of the water.

Being able to apply it wet is a great advantage especially when you're in an out of the water as much as we are.  It works great to keep the kids from getting burned, and they love the Krazy Kiwi  scent.

This Lip Balm is just what I was looking for. While I always use  regular lip balm, my lips would still get burned. This balm has SPF 30, so it protects me from the sun and still leaves my lips feeling soft and kissable. It even has a pleasant tropical flavor. My children  loved it even more because Hello Kitty is on the stick. It's the perfect way to keep your lips protected anytime you're outside in the sun. With these three product, we'll all set for summer fun. 

The First Sunscreen Line to Pass Whole Foods Premium Care

No matter where you like to obtain your information, if you type in "chemical sunscreen", you'll be confronted by a tremendous amount of concern relating to chemicals in sunscreen. In addition, most chemical sunscreens are in aerosol spray form, which the FDA is beginning to review. Studies have not only shown their lack of effectiveness, but there is concern about the particulates being inhaled.

Over the last 5 years, there has been a move to mineral-based sunscreen. As the world becomes more informed on this issue through sun care safety databases like Skin Deep, we wanted to make sure you were aware of our safer solutions.

Thinkbaby and Thinksport were created ten years ago to address the growing concern of harmful chemicals leaching from consumer products. Our founder, having previously worked for a lab funded by the National Institutes of Health on endocrine disrupting chemicals leaching from consumer products, became painfully aware of the expanse of this issue from everything from baby bottles to sunscreen.

Thinkbaby launched the first BPA free baby bottle line and Thinksport followed by launching the first insulated BPA free sports bottle line. Since our inception, we have targeted products that are harmful and provided consumers with safer alternatives. Along the way, we have also been a heavy supporter of health centric non-profit organizations from Breast Cancer Fund to Healthy Child Healthy World.

My Thoughts

Summer is just around the corner, and that means it's time to stock up on your sunblock. Even now, in the spring,  my family spends a lot of time outside. I love hiking along the nature trails and taking the kids on the beach to search for shells.  The weather is just starting to warm up, but your skin can still get damaged by the harsh rays of the sun. This year, I don't want to use the same old greasy sunscreens, but I still want superior protection for me and my children. ThinkSport and ThinkBaby was the perfect choice for me.

These sunscreens come in formulas that work on both the face and body, but they are more than just sunscreen. In addition to providing powerful SPF protection, their mineral based formula is a safer, more natural alternative to other moisturizers. It even has a pleasant scent that doesn't smell too much like chemicals.

I tried both the ThinkBaby and the ThinkSport. Each one offers a smooth formula that glides onto skin, rubbing in evenly and leaving behind no greasy residue.  Each application leaves your skin feeling soft and touchable.  Each one offers SPF 50 protection, which gives you the perfect coverage every time. Each one is is also water resistant. ThinkSport offers the perfect protection. You can trust your skint to it all summer long.

My Thoughts

Pipers Perfumery offers a light and refreshing body spritz perfect for the spring. We got to try the Vanilla Creme and Brown Sugar. Its has an amazing aroma, but it isn't overpowering. Just one of two spritzes and your set for the whole day. There are over eight ounces in the bottle so for one low price, your getting enough body spray to last through the summer. The bottle is also just the right size to tuck in your suitcase for travel. 

SPF

It’s important to protect your skin from the sun’s harsh rays. But, it is even more important to do it in style. With their UVA and UVB protection, the Australian Gold SPF 30 Lotion with Kona Coffee Bronzers and Hello Kitty SPF 45 Faces Lotion will be the most sought after beach products

It rubs in evenly, and feels more like lotion than sunblock. Your skin feels soft after using it and it doesn't leave behind any greasy residue. The variety I tried is SPF 15, and this formula is perfect for the spring when its not too hot out yet. You can still get a little color without having to worry about getting burned. Its a great choice for kids playing outside during spring break.

My Thoughts

The Cherish the Moment Moisturizing Body Cream is a wonderful treat for your skin. Even on the first day of spring, we were still buried in snow, and my skin has paid the price. Before I start wearing shorts, I need to get my dry skin healthy and vibrant again, and this lotion is the perfect way to accomplish that. The lotion glides onto your skin, leaving skin rose petal soft. As an added bonus, the aroma is a truly enchanting blend that is fresh and invigorating.

My Thoughts

 As a green mom, I am always on the look out for chemical free skincare products that are safe to use for me and my children, but still get the job done.  Safe Harbor comes in formulas for both face and body, but they are more than just sunscreen. In addition to providing powerful SPF protection, it's also a non-greasy formula that's actually good for your skin. It helps to prevent age spots and provides superior moisture protection. It even has a pleasant aroma.
  
I tried several different variates with SPF ranging from 30 to 50, and there were lots of things I liked about this product.  Each one offers a smooth formula that glides onto skin, rubbing in evenly and leaving behind no greasy residue.  Each application leaves your skin feeling soft and touchable. In addition to it being a more natural alternative, the sunscreen is not at all greasy or sticky when it's applied. I also like the scent. It was very light and doesn't smell like chemicals. It almost feels like you're applying regular skin cream. And of course, most importantly, it worked perfectly. There was not one speck of sunburn on me or the kids even after a full eight hours in the sun without reapplying.

Protect & Renew with Ocean Potion

Who doesn't remember getting a really bad sunburn as a teen?  Well, it turns out that those burns may have long-term consequences.

A recently released study of data found that found that those who had at least five blistering sunburns when they were 15 to 20 years old had:

·         a 68 percent increased risk for common skin cancers like basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas.

·         an 80 percent increased risk of melanoma by the time they reached middle age.

The results appeared in a publication of the American Association of Cancer Research.   Researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital Channing Lab looked at data from more than 100,000 nurses who participated in the Harvard Nurses' Health study.  Researchers concluded that, "Persons with high host-risk traits, such as red hair color, higher number of moles, and high sunburn susceptibility, should pay more attention to avoid excessive sun exposure, especially early in life.”

Regardless of skin type, the sun causes damage that may lead to skin cancer.  It is important to use sunscreen every day and not just when at the beach or active outdoors.  And consumers don't have to rely on premium priced products. 

A new anti-aging line from Ocean Potion offers excellent protection and is available at many drugstores and mass merchants. Ocean Potion Protect & Renew Face SPF 35 reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with patented collagen-boosting peptides and vitamin E that protects against free radicals generated by ultraviolet light.  MSRP $8.99.

For hands and body, Protect & Renew Body SPF45 brightens and evens skin tone with vitamin B3 and hydrating Pentavitin that lasts more than 72 hours. Both offer broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection, and are supple and natural to the touch, which is unusual for high SPF products. MSRP $8.99.  Learn more at oceanpotion.com.

Sun protection at the beach has never been easier.  New technologies make application a breeze, especially for kids who resist toweling off before applying sunscreen. For example, Ocean Potion's new IntelliSeal technology cuts through water to form a layer of broad-spectrum protection.  It won't turn white when sprayed on wet skin, and leaves skin feeling soft, not sticky.

My Thoughts

Summer may be winding down, but that doesn't mean it's time to pack up your sunblock. In the fall, I spend more time outside than ever. I love hiking along the nature trails and taking the kids on hayrides.  The weather might start to cool off, but your skin can still get damaged by the harsh rays of the sun. I don't want to use the same greasy sunscreens I use at the beach, but I still want superior protection. The Protect & Renew line from Ocean Potion was the perfect choice for me.

The Protect & Renew moisturizers come in formulas for both face and body, but they are more than just sunscreen. In addition to providing powerful SPF protection, it's also a non-greasy formula that's actually good for your skin. Packed with vitamin B, it helps to prevent age spots and provides superior moisture protection that lasts for up to 72 hours. It even has a pleasant scent that doesn't smell too much like chemicals.

I tried both the  body and face lotion. Each one offers a smooth formula that glides onto skin, rubbing in evenly and leaving behind no greasy residue.  Each application leaves your skin feeling soft and touchable.  The body lotion offers 45SPF and the face cream 35SPF, which gives you the perfect coverage every time. The face cream is also water resistant. Ocean Potion offers the perfect combination of protection from both the elements and the natural aging process in one package.
