Spring has definitely sprung! I’m so ready for Spring weather to really be here, and then bring summer right on it’s heels. I’m ready for the sun. We are all ready to get outdoors and run around without having to get all bundled up, covered from head to toe in layers. Spring always reminds me that bathing suit season is just around the corner. I can see it now, watching Baby Blue run through thick green grass, with a pink lemonade in my hand, a summer of splashing in the pool and sporting great tans.
Then I realize with all of the fun in the sun comes the dreaded ‘effects’ of the sun on our skin. We’re using Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion, and the great part is it’s perfect to use even now… before the hours that will be spent by the pool… I use it even while dreaming of hours by the pool. The ‘shielding’ part does more than just block the sun rays, it also blocks out other harmful irritants and chemicals while allowing the natural moisture to remain in the skin. We love it. We love our smooth skin after using it, the light feel, and the fact that it’s not greasy. A little really does go a long way and it’s fragrance and colorant free, hypoallergenic and Paraben free! We use it on the entire family, it’s gentle enough for your face, and effective enough for your feet!
Oh, and one more thing! Leave a comment, any comment at all, on this post, and be entered in a drawing to win a full size 4oz bottle of Skin MD Shielding Lotion (a $25 value)!! Plus, I’ll pick two more, randomly selected, lucky, dry skinned FreshMommy readers that comment, and send you a sample size packet.
So, what have you always wanted to say?

AnnD says
I read something recently that said to put sunscreen on your child every day no matter what. In fact, it said just to keep it right next to the toothpaste and make it a part of their routine so they become so accustomed to it by the time they get older, it’s a no brainer for them to put it on. I think that is a great idea!
I love that photo too…did you take it, I can’t imagine that you could get your arm out that far?! hehe
Angela Klocke says
My little fair-skinned beauty always needs sunblock and lotion. I’m entering!

I would love to win this giveaway so much. I have trouble with acne/dry skin and remember a few years ago using Skin MD products and then working fabulous! I had forgotten about it now but would love to start using it again. Due to the medication I am on for acne my skin gets so dry and I would love to find the right moisturizer.
Thanks for the chance to win!!! I am keeping my fingers crossed =)
