Are you using your sunscreen correctly? Don’t get burned!

Sunscreen

Consumer Reports recently tested 65 popular brands of sunscreen and found out something shocking! That SPF 30 you’ve been buying might actually only really work like SPF 8 if you’re in and out of the water a lot. 43% of the sunscreens they tested didn’t stand up to water and had significantly lower SPF values than they claimed on the bottle.

A full report from CBS News can be found here, but here are the best bets if you need to get out into the sun this weekend:

1. La Roche-Posay Anthellos 60 Melt-In Sunscreen Milk lotion
2. Pure Sun Defense SPF 50 lotion
3. Banana Boat SunComfort Continuous Spray SPF 50+
4. Aveeno Protect + Hydrate SPF 30
5. No-Ad Sport SPF 50 lotion
6. Equate Sport Continuous Spray SPF 50
