How to Stylishly Protect Your Face from the Sun

This is a sponsored post on behalf of Blue Lizard Australian Sunscreen.  As always, all opinions are my own.

Have you ever been to the beach and found people completely covering their faces up as if they were going snow skiing in a blizzard?  First of all, those face masks look ridiculous.  Secondly, people might get the wrong impression and think you’re going to rob them or something.

Thankfully, you don’t need to look like a burglar on the beach this summer thanks to these practical and stylish tips for protecting your face from the sun

Get a Stylish Wide Brimmed Beach Hat

Aside from sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat is essential for protecting your face from the sun – plus, they’re super chic.  If you are traveling, try looking for a packable beach hat so you can stuff it in your carry-on bag or checked baggage.  One of my favorite hats is this black and white striped hat.

Sunglasses

I really try to keep my eyes out of the sun as much as possible.  This is much safer for your eye health and it helps prevent aging and wrinkles.  I personally like sunglasses with reflective lenses like the Oakley Feedback sunglasses.

When I’m not wearing my Feedback sunglasses, I go for a larger pair for even more coverage.  Shown in the image up top are the Oakley Pampered sunglasses which are no longer available.

Something that is unique to the Blue Lizard brand is the fun color changing packaging.  Depending on the sunscreen you have, the bottle or the cap will turn blue when exposed to the sun to remind you to use your sunscreen.
