I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Banana Boat®. I received product samples to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for my participation.
Summer is here! Ok, well, actually the official start of summer this year is June 21st at 12:38pm but we all know, summer is already here. Locally school has been out for a few weeks and we have had temperatures in the 90s for weeks. I am more of a pool person than a beach person but I have visited the beach once already and the pool a few more times. For us, summer fun often takes place at my parent’s pool. We always lather on the sunscreen and have a great time. Mom and I were in the pool on Sunday and some times we have 11+ family and friends together enjoying the fun and sun. This weekend we will spend Father’s Day at Aaron & Summer’s house, their first time hosting a family gathering! We are bringing corn hole so I know the party will move to their large backyard as the games begin. However you enjoy your summer outdoors, make sure it begins with applying 2 tablespoons of sunscreen to you and your kids 30 minutes before going outside and then reapplying every 2 hours or immediately after swimming or extreme sweating.
As you can see we love family get-togethers, 12 of us are even going on a cruise this fall! Banana Boat® is hosting an awesome family reunion contest where one winner and up to 50 friends and family will win a trip to a resort to spend time together! I entered and I hope you click that link and enter too.
I’m loving the Banana Boat® SunComfort™ Clear UltraMist® Sunscreen, because it goes beyond sun protection and is great for everyday use. This new formula allows sand to easily brush off and moisturizes to relieve dryness caused by sun, chlorine and salt water. Living in Florida and wearing sunscreen almost every day, this is a great bonus for me. The Dry Oil Clear UltraMist® Sunscreen now includes argan oil. This goes beyond sun protection, leaving skin feeling silky-smooth and moisturized and deliverseasy coverage with a light-weight, non-greasy feel. The Sport Performance®Lotion Sunscreen with Powerstay Technology™ was designed for the sport enthusiast and active individual who doesn’t want to be slowed down when out in the sun. The lotion’s formula is light-weight, sweat resistant, water resistant (up to 80 minutes). Powerstay Technology locks actives in place and boosts staying power to provide heavy duty protection throughout all outdoor activities.

My kids have very fair skin and I also worry about skin cancer so I am always slathering Banana Boat Sport on them in the summer when they’re outside. I love that it protects their skin from the damages of the sun but also works when they get into the water. That’s a great giveaway!

It’s so very important to protect our skin from the suns rays. This product sounds like a great one to use!
Robin Gagnon says
This reminds me I need to pick some up. I generally keep our time in full sun to a limit rather than wearing screen daily, but I am a crazed re-applier at the beach…lol

I’ve become a huge fan of spray sun screens for all my older boys! It’s so hard to get them to come out and have the patience but these make it so easy!

My husband goes through sunscreen like there is no tomorrow. He is fair – his hair was very red when he was a child – so he burns easily.

I’m glad to see the sunscreen being used, and glad that they finally are telling people how much to use. Dont’ forget to apply to the face and ears, and the top of the head if you have thin hair up there.
