Hello sweet Gorgeous! How is your summer so far? Mine is hot and busy! Last week my son got a bad sun burn ( long story how...) and I didn't have any aloe vera gel with me-but what I did have is the Pevonia after-sun soothing gel. I applied some and he said it felt good and I could see 30 minutes later that the redness was starting to fade a bit. The gel did provide some relief and comfort for him. As for me, I was recently on an long, hot outdoor set and I got a sunburn! Thank goodness I had my blog sample of soothing gel at home to put on: my sunburnt lips, a wee oval shape of burn on my forehead where the swimcap started and the goggles ended! It feels good and helped comfort me too-so far, I'm a fan of Pevonia.

Hello Gorgeous, I am busy traveling for work and today as with many days I will be outside in the searing 113 degree heat of Arizona. The sunscreen I will be wearing, and what I have been wearing for a week now is a sample from Neova in the DNA Damage Control smart sunscreen line. It's called Silc Sheer 2.0-now from my experience, I really like it. It's smooth, does take a bit of blending, gives a hint of tint and color to my face while also providing spf 40 broad spectrum and water resistant sunscreen protection. So for me-so far so good! It's retailing online from $24 to $45 in price point depending on where you shop. Now what I did notice is the reviews: seems many loyal users do not like the new formula (hence the 2.0) or the pump or the tint saying that it's chalky compared to the previous version. Well, I didn't try the previous version and so far, my experience with Neova silc sheer 2.0 is good! Today will test it's mettle as I am in the sun, in the water-all day long! Notes to follow soon!
