Summer is here, so we’ve put together a selection of beauty products containing sunscreen to protect you from the sun’s harmful rays. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, more than 3.5 million cases of skin cancer are diagnosed annually. Skin cancer may be the most common cancer in the U.S., but it’s also the most preventable: Shielding your skin with an SPF of at least 30 will help block 97 percent of the damage-inducing solar rays. So never leave home without your sunscreen!
