As I sit here in my dining room I can see that snow is beginning to fall. All over the news there are snow warnings for our area tonight through Thanksgiving day and OH how I LOVE snow!! For those of you who dislike snow, well, we are going to get a bunch of it here and if you live in the area - you will get some too! JOY! Seriously though, I do love winter and also love the snow. Before hubby and I were married, he took me skiing. I had never been before and was very excited about getting to try it out. All of my coworkers were wishing me luck and telling me not to break anything and it was a huge joke that I would come back from skiing in a body cast. Well, skiing was nothing like I thought it would be and I didn't wipe out too much. One thing that really surprised me was how hot I became when skiing. The sun reflecting off the snow proved to be pretty unforgiving too as I had a mild sunburn when we got home that day. Who would have thought I would have a sunburn in the middle of winter???
So, as you prepare to enjoy these next few winter months I wanted to take a minute and remind you that even though it is not summer time anymore, you can still get sunburned and need to take every precaution to protect your skin. This is where NO-AD Sunscreen comes in. This very popular sunscreen brand just celebrated 50 years of protecting skin and they are one of the oldest sun care companies in the U.S! So neat. Anyway, NO-AD wanted to remind you about some important tips to keep your skin protected this winter season.

Anyway, NO-AD wanted to remind you about some important tips to keep your skin protected this winter season.
- Limit sun exposure, particularly between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. when the sun's harmful UV rays are the strongest and most damaging to your skin
- Use a water-resistant, broad-spectrum SPF sunscreen with a value of 30 or higher
- Liberally apply sun protection 15 minutes before sun exposure
- Reapply every hour as needed, particularly after swimming or perspiring
- Your lips need protection, too—use an SPF 15 or higher lip balm
Those are great tips...I always try to be careful around those times of the day as the sun truly is very hot - whether it is summer or winter. I also really agree with the lip balm tip as well...my lips get so parched in the winter, I carry balm every where I go.
So, for this review I was sent three products from NO-AD that are guaranteed to keep mine and my children's skin protected this winter while we are outdoors enjoying the snow. I was sent: Kid's Continuous Spray Sunscreen, Kid's Sunscreen Lotion and Sunscreen Lotion.
Both of the Kid's Sunscreens water resistant and fragrance free, which is nice. My children have sensitive skin and sometimes using perfumed products on them causes some irritation. The lotion sunscreens are smooth and creamy and absorb nicely into the skin. The non-kids version smells really nice and I have actually used it before! It always works well for me.
My favorite of these three products was the Kid's Continuous Spray Sunscreen. I love this for many reasons: it is easy to apply and applies evenly. It is not messy at all. Sometimes the lotion is hard to use on little ones because it gets EVERYWHERE. This spray is wonderful. It is also hypo-allergenic, non-comedogenic and fragrance-free! I will definitely be using this when the kids go outdoors to play in the next few months and then in the summer too! This particular sunscreen retails for $9.99 for a 10 oz can.
So, this winter please be sure you check out these and all of NO-AD's other products at food, drug and mass retailers throughout the United States. You can also find NO-AD on Facebook, Twitter and also on Pinterest so be sure to visit them there.
NO-AD has offered to giveaway a can of Kid's Continuous Spray Sunscreen to one of you! Here are your entry options...
