Blame it on my sleeve tattoos and pasty Eastern European roots, but I am fanatical about sun protection. My husband jokingly calls me a “beach goth” because I’m the only person he knows who covers themselves head-to-toe in the Caribbean or anywhere else with intense heat and sun. My commitment goes beyond sunscreen though; I also wear UV-blocking makeup, wide-brim hats, and full-coverage swim gear, some of which I discovered while living abroad in super-sunny Southeast Asia. My 17-month-old toddler, Julian, is just as ghostly as I am, so I go to great measures to protect him as well. What follows are an array of sun-shielding products that have served my vampiric family well in recent years, in case you too are on the hunt for more ways to protect your skin from the sun.
