Daily sunscreen for teens: why it matters and how to make it a habit

Daily sunscreen is one of the most important skincare habits a tween or teen can learn. According to a dermatologist at Children's Wisconsin, sun exposure is the biggest cause of skin aging, which makes sun protection the best "anti-aging" step at any age.

How to use it

Follow the directions on your sunscreen label. For Ready Set Sun Broad Spectrum SPF 30+:

  • Apply generously to clean skin as the final step in your morning routine, at least 15 minutes before sun exposure.
  • Reapply every two hours when outdoors, or after swimming or sweating.
  • Use it with other sun protection measures, like hats, protective clothing and shade.

Make it a habit

  • Keep sunscreen next to the toothbrush so it's part of the morning routine.
  • Pick a lightweight formula that doesn't feel greasy, so teens actually want to wear it.
  • Pack a bottle in sports bags for outdoor practice and games.
  • Lead by example and wear it yourself.

A simple summer routine

The Soak It Up Summer Set brings together Wake Me Up Hydrating Toner Mist, Super Nice Mānuka Honey Moisturizer and Ready Set Sun SPF 30+.
