| | Whatever your plans are for Memorial Day weekend—aka the unofficial start to summer—they'll ideally involve some much-needed relaxation, joyful activities, and, of course, a heady dose of sunshine. To prep for what hopefully amounts to a fun-filled long weekend, Coppertone has you covered—literally. | In addition to dropping an innovative new sunscreen specially designed with melanin-rich skin in mind (no visible white cast here!), we've teamed up with Coppertone to give you some excellent sun-care content: First off, in the latest episode of R29's Instagram series Skin Deep, board-certified dermatologist Onyeka Obioha, MD debunked common sun-care myths, like "people of color don't need to wear sunscreen" (false) and "SPF-infused makeup provides adequate protection from the sun" (also false). Plus, she doled out useful sunscreen hacks, such as the minimum level of SPF you should be wearing (hint: no less than 30), how much sunscreen to *actually* wear (ever heard of the "shot glass rule"?), and why Coppertone Every Tone SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion, which features vitamin E, broad-spectrum protection, and a formula that goes on clear, checks all of her boxes.
If you missed the episode, don't worry—there's plenty more goodness to be had: See one R29 Unbothered staffer take Coppertone's new sunscreen launch for a road test in our other Instagram series, So, How Is It Really?. And while you're at it, learn how a surfer, a hiker, and a skateboarder stay protected outdoors. Sunburn? Never heard of her. | | | SHOP HERE | |
