At the risk of sounding like Baz Luhrmann or your mother, we’re going to say it: wear sunscreen. We know you know, but you might not be aware that not all sunscreens are the same. The new trend in SPF is physical; as in creams containing microscopic minerals which act to physically block the sun’s rays, rather than chemically blocking them like the Banana Boats and Coppertones of the past. Feel free to forget about technicals such as UVA and UVB, because Elta MD’s multiple formulations of luxurious sun-proof potions have got you fully covered (pardon the purposeful pun).
With formulas for acneic and sensitive skin types, those of us who prefer a little tint, and for equestrians who spend long, sweaty days beneath the sun, Elta MD has a concoction for every need. Our tackrooms, trucks and trailers are stocked with this stuff. However, with luxurious ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, Vitamin E, and alpha hydroxy acids included in many of its products, we stock our suitcases with Elta MD as well. Because, like champagne, no trip to the French Riviera would be complete without it.
