When it comes to essential self-care that needs to happen at Walt Disney World, making sure to use adequate sun protection is nearly as important as staying hydrated, especially during the hot summer months under the Florida sun.
From the best sunscreen options to makeup hacks, accessory tips, and even something as simple as clothing, these are the best ways to keep yourself safe from the sun at the “Most Magical Place on Earth.”
Reapply Often Throughout the Day, Especially After Water Rides
It’s imperative to remember not to just throw on sun protection in the morning and then forget it. Instead, you should be applying throughout the day, especially after riding water rides or sweating. That’s where this product comes in:
Hawaiian Tropic Mineral Powder Sunscreen Brush
Featuring 100% mineral SPF 30 broad spectrum UVA/UVB sun protection without chemical UV filters, this face sunscreen provides coverage that can be used under makeup as a face primer, over makeup as a finishing step, or on its own. Its lightweight vegan sunscreen formula uses sourced sea minerals to absorb excess oils and blend into a matte finish that blends into most skin tones.
Make sure to Cover Any Areas that Get a Lot of Sun Exposure
Whether it’s the back of the hands, forearms, lower legs, or the top of your head, it’s quite important to make sure the areas that are directly in the sun are protected for the duration of the day. Speaking of the top of the head…
