Summer Must Haves #2: Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen


Product # 2:  Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen SPF 30
$8.99 for 6 oz. bottle, also available in SPF 12, 30, and 50


Living in Florida calls for sunscreen, lots of sunscreen.  Whether you are planning on having a beach day, taking a quick trip to the community pool, or simply just mowing the lawn - protecting your skin against harmful UVA and UVB rays is a must, especially with hearing so much about skin cancer these days.  What I loved about Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration sunscreen was that it really didn't feel like sunscreen...allow me to clarify: You know how traditional sunscreen seems to give you a pasty look?  How it feels greasy, oily,  slimy, and gross?  This stuff doesn't do that in the least bit.  It feels more like a daily-use lotion with it's impressive 12-hour moisturization technology that still activated when you are in the water.
Now call me weird, but I love the smell of sunscreen.  I actually once bought a rather pricey perfume from Victoria's Secret solely based upon the fact that it smelt like sunscreen, so needless to say I may not be the best judge of how "sunscreeny" this UV blocker smells.  I can tell you, though, that it had a nice tropical/coconut kind of scent to it.  Not the fake bake lotion kind, just a refreshing tropical smell.  I will definitely be purchasing this product, but this time in SPF 50 - take that UVA and UVB rays!

I received this product complimentary for testing and reviewing purposes courtesy of Influenster.
