| hwz1's Full Review: Coppertone Sport Ultra Sweatproof Dry Lotion |
Do you enjoy the lobster look? You know the one I am talking about; red as can be and glowing like the hair on Ronald McDonald's head. If so, avoid the Coppertone sunscreen products. The company produces sunscreen products that really do provide protection from the sun.
I use the SPF 15 and 30 products and find that the 15 provides pretty good protection if applied a couple of times over the course of four hours. Why do I use four hours as a basis? I play a lot of golf and most rounds take in the neighborhood of four hours. Hence, the need for four hours of protection.
I usually use the SPF 15 since I like a little color. The SPF 30 will do a heck of job blocking out a great deal of sun. In fact the SPF 30 is a sunscreen that you can utilize to write nasty sayings on your friends back while applying. Yes, it is that good and you will be able to clearly read what you wrote later that evening.
THE PRODUCT:
* Available in SPF 8, 15, 30, and 45
* Waterproof
* Protects against UVA/UVB rays
* Dry lotion- meaning no oily residue
* Works best when applied 15 minutes or more before exposure
THE CAUTIONS:
* Avoid contact with the eyes- product will not run into the eyes, but should beapplied with caution.
* Discontinue use if a rash or irritation develops on the skin
* Keep out of the reach of children
* Seek professional help if ingested
THE DIRECTIONS:
* Apply to all exposed areas
* Apply at least 15 minutes before exposure
* Reapply after prolonged swimming, vigorous activity, or excessive toweling off
THE RECOMMENDATION:
I have used Coppertone products for as long as I can remember and must say that I have rarely been disappointed. I spend a tremendous amount of time in the sun and take a number of precautions. However, I am always sure to apply the Coppertone Sunscreen before heading out. I find that it works well, does not produce an aroma/odor, and when participating in athletics it is one of the few sunscreen products that does produce a slippery feeling. I would recommend the family of sunscreen's to everyone.
