    It happens every year, we get the first few sunny, hot days and we bask in the sun, drinking it up like we have been shut-in all winter (which we have, by the way).

    Then, at the end of the day, we come into the house and realize we have farmer’s tans and ouch-y shoulder tops.

    The game is to be prepared for the sun!

    Every year, I see it coming and forget, as if, subconsciously, I am trying to get a sunburn.

    Let me tell you, people, sunburns are over-rated and downright dangerous.

    Why not bask in the sun, like a #boss, smartly protecting your skin because it’s the only God-given skin you got in this life and that’s worth protecting!

    6 Favorite Items To Pack for Summer Vacation Skin Protection

    1. Sunglasses

    Protect your beautiful eyes!

    You won’t have to squint in the sun if you have some lovely shades on.

    I love my sunglasses, an anniversary gift from my husband Eric.

    These are my favorite sunglasses and I never leave home without them.

    I have had these for 3+ years now and they are really a staple in my wardrobe.

    2. Hat

    The fashion choices are endless here.

    I am always loving fedora-type styles. People always look put together when they have a hat on and so stylish.

    My mom got this hat for me and I love it! Why not try a unique and different style hat?

    I have this tightly woven straw hat with linen detail in my hat collection and will be rocking it this Summer vacation.

    I love this hat!

    Special thanks to my mom who found this hat for me!

    3. Halter Tank Swimwear

    I love clothing that gives you options.

    Why not have a break from matchy-matchy swimwear and have different top and bottom combinations?

    Don’t forget your sun protection essentials!

    Nothing says, I know what I like and want to wear like 2 different pieces that you put together!

    I love the hipster shorts for more coverage to protect against the sun and the long, shirt-style top.

    By the way, I found this combo to be awesome for my post-baby body.

    4. Board Shorts

    I know, I know, don’t board shorts a little late 90’s Delia’s catalog in terms of style?

    Um, like what’s wrong with that? I still want those clothes! 

    These are a great cover-up post-swim and dry off fast.

    I’m ready for the luau with these shorts!

    Why not have a bold hibiscus print while we are at it?

    5. Hawaiian Tropic® Silk Hydration Weightless Sunscreen

    I love the silky-soft feel of Hawaiian Tropic® Silk Hydration Weightless Sunscreen.

    This is your home base in terms of sun protection.

    Hawaiian Tropic® Silk Hydration Weightless Sunscreen is one of my Summer vacation Sun protection essentials

    I kid you not, the scent is like the ocean!

    I want to wear this as my everyday lotion because the scent just takes me away to a tropical paradise!

    As in the photo below of the beach in Cancun, Mexico where Eric and I went on our Honeymoon.

    I am talking about this kind of paradise! Cancun, Mexico.

    The scent of this lotion really reminds me of that amazing time there!

    #Throwback to when I had long hair, lol! Hmm, looking at this picture makes me miss it – a little.

    Look at that smile in the picture!

    Could I be any more jubilant that I am basking in the tropical sun? Remember it is possible to enjoy the sun and be protected.

    I share another photo below from our honeymoon to tell you why…

    Here is more information on Hawaiian Tropic® Silk Hydration Weightless Sunscreen:

    • It’s nice because you can barely feel the sunscreen
    • I learned that it is the newest sunscreen in the Silk Hydration line and it gives 12-hour moisturization. It has a unique, new breathable formula and its signature ultra-luxurious hydrating silk ribbons and it provides broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection, leaving your skin silky smooth.
    • It is recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation to protect against the sun’s harmful rays and it’s available in SPF 30.
    • It is blended with exotic island botanicals and the signature feels incredibly lightweight and smooth on the skin.

    Hawaiian Tropic® Silk Hydration Weightless Sunscreen at Target

    Above is a photo collage showing where at Target you can find Hawaiian Tropic® Silk Hydration Weightless Sunscreen.

    I found it near the Cosmetics section, near the Health and Beauty section, and adjacent to the Pharmacy.

    Who’s that handsome couple? Oh, that’s Eric and I on our honeymoon in Cancun, Mexico!

    Hmm, looks like Eric and I could have used some Hawaiian Tropic® Silk Hydration Weightless Sunscreen when we had our honeymoon in Cancun!

    I remember the day this photo was taken, I was sick from too much sun exposure, I recovered in time for dinner (of course, no surprise there!) but that was a good lesson in skin protection.

    6. Hooded Cover-up

    Why not feel nice and breezy in a cover-up like this white, breathable and sporty number?

    The hooded cover-up is a great addition to my Summer vacation skin protection line up.

    It’s a light color, so it doesn’t absorb the sun’s rays and breathable.

    I love this piece because it’s packable for throwing in a tote bag and heading off to the beach.

    Speaking of the beach…check out some of the places that I will be heading to this Summer with my family below!
