Note to beauty product companies: When faced with two nearly identical items, I will almost always buy the one that's got sun protection in it, even if it is more expensive.
One of the habits I am most proud of -- but that I wish I had formed at an earlier age -- is my affinity for sunscreen. The first thing I put on every morning is my Coppertone Faces Sunscreen. Before I do anything outside, whether it's hanging out on the beach, riding my bike or rollerblading, I slather on the SPF. And I'm big on lip protection too. I stopped off at Target yesterday to pick up some Soft Lips lip balm because I was running low, and I stumbled upon Vitamin Water's product, Vitamin Schtick. It smells delicious, is a fun product, and it's SPF 20. Win, win, win.
Also among my favorite products are Jergen's Natural Glow moisturizer (fake, but don't bake!) and my Smith Optics polarized Serpico sunglasses -- eye protection is way important, too!
I drive my friends and sisters crazy preaching about sun protection, but I don't care. I'm all for preventing skin cancer and keeping my skin as youthful as possible. So while you're out enjoying your Independence Day weekend, don't forget to wear protection!

Like button! I'd also like to add, sunscreen on the hands is another biggie. When driving, they get a lot of rays up on the steering wheel.
