I am an avid sunscreen user. I wear sunscreen everyday, rain or shine!

I am an avid sunscreen user. I wear sunscreen everyday, rain or shine! My skin is generally clear, but doesn't tolerate thick, greasy lotions or sunscreen very well without breaking out. I've been using the Coppertone Clearly Sheer line for almost a week straight and am happy with the results.


My daily routine usually involves using a sensitive skin moisturizing lotion by Olay that has SPF 15 in it on my face, and then Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Sunblock on my neck, shoulders and arms. For the past week, I have been skipping the Olay lotion and have exclusively been using the Coppertone Clearly Sheer for Sunny Days- a SPF 30 lotion. My skin looks great! It hasn't caused any breakouts or reactions, and it goes on feeling light and clean. I really appreciate the weightlessness of the formula, because I am able to wear my makeup over it without feeling smothered. The higher SPF number makes me feel more secure that my skin is being protected.

On my neck and arms I have been using the Coppertone Continuous Spray, which is an SPF 50. I love that it comes in a spray bottle, which helps with applying it quickly and evenly. I also really liked the light scent to it. I kept the bottle in my purse so I could reapply is every couple of hours. I have used it while gardening, playing in the sun with my daughter, and at our Memorial Day cook out- and I am sunburn free!

I am going to use these two sunscreens for another week to see if they hold up well with continued and extended use!

COPPERTONE® CLEARLYSheer™ Sunscreen



I got my Bzz kit for Coppertone ClearlySheer Sunscreen today! This is a campaign I am actually ery excited for. In 2013 I had several minor surgeries to remove a couple of pre-cancerous nevus. Part of my aftercare is getting routine follow ups and... wearing sunscreen every day! I've been looking for something I can wear under my makeup, but that is stronger than the current sunscreen/lotion combination I'm using. I can't wait to give it a shot and report back!

Here's what the press release says:

Ideal for everyday sun protection
When you’re looking to spend some time in the sun, any reason will do. New COPPERTONE® CLEARLYSheer sunscreens make sure there’s never a reason not to apply sunscreen, whether you’re outside all day or running errands around town. The face-friendly formulas offer lightweight, sheer coverage that absorbs in seconds and leaves barely a trace on skin. Moisturizing formulas help leave your skin soft and smooth and the sunscreens won’t clog pores or cause breakouts (clinically tested on acne-prone skin). Remember to always use as directed.

Fragrances inspired by you

Everyone loves the smell of the beach, but it might be a little out of place while you’re gardening in the backyard or at a kid’s soccer game. That’s why the makers of COPPERTONE® tested a variety of fragrances with women to select the new unique scents designed to complement the overall aesthetics of the lightweight formulas.
