Keep Sunscreen On-Hand this Spring

March 28, 2019

 

Spring is here, which means the sun is back out! Just because it is not blistering hot outside does not mean you can skip out on the sunscreen. Harmful UVA rays can pass through clouds and cause damage to your skin. Even if it is cloudy out be sure to lather up on sunscreen. Also, there are sunscreens for different parts of the body. For instance, your face. Use a sunscreen that is specifically designed for your face. Your facial skin can be more sensitive to irritation and face sunscreens account for that. Lucky for you, we carry sunscreen for purchase in all of our offices. Check out some of our best sellers below:
