When hitting the beach, it’s important to remember a few items to keep your skin and body healthy.  Here are some beach bag must-haves:

• Just Add Water – Keeping your skin and body hydrated is even more important in the hot summer sun.  Aim for a minimum of 8 glasses per day.
• Stock Up On Healthy Snacks – Don’t let your blood sugar dip while you’re busy playing beach volleyball or swimming.  Try refreshing frozen berries, almonds, or a healthy bite bar to keep your energy levels up.
• Bring Your Own Shade – It’s important to get 15-20 minutes of sun exposure during off peak hours, but that’s not an excuse to let yourself bake in the sun for hours at a time.  Bring a hat or use a sun umbrella to give your skin a much needed break from the sun.
• Skip the Chemicals – Many sunscreens are filled with chemicals that can aggravate sensitive skin.  Opt for a non-chemical sunscreen to protect your skin and avoid irritation.
