Did you know 70% of sun damage occurs during the first 18 years of life? I'm lucky that my girl has inherited some of my olive skin, but that doesn't mean I eschew sunscreen. This latest stint of warm weather gave me the chance to try out Mustela's high protection sun lotion SPF 50. There are two different offerings:

• High Protetion Sun Lotion: Typical body lotion in the basic squeeze tube--slather this on everywhere else!
