Sun Protection From Head to Toe

Summer in Burlington means sunshine, patios, waterfront walks, and everything outdoors. But it also means it’s time to step up your sun protection game! From shielding your skin and eyes, to keeping your hair healthy and hydrated, Burlington Downtown has everything you need to stay safe and protected in the sun.

Here’s your head-to-toe guide to sun protection this summer, featuring incredible products, all available downtown!

1. Skin first!


SPF is a non-negotiable! Whether you’re heading to a waterfront yoga class or grabbing a latte or cocktail on a nearby patio, daily SPF is essential…and not just any sunscreen will do.

💡
Drop by Dynamic Laserworks and explore their extensive lineup of Dermalogica sunscreens, where there’s truly something for everyone! Acne-prone skin? Check! Or perhaps you prefer a lightweight, primer-like finish? Check! Their range has you covered…literally!.

A few standouts to check out:

  • Matte Defense SPF30 – Ultra-lightweight, shine-reducing formula ideal for breakout-prone skin.
  • Prisma Protect SPF30 – A multitasking moisturizer that uses light-activated technology to boost skin radiance while defending against UV and pollution.
  • PoreScreen SPF40 – A mineral sunscreen with a sheer tint that blurs pores and doubles as the perfect sun-protecting makeup base.
  • Invisible Physical Defense SPF30 – A non-nano zinc formula that melts into the skin without a white cast, and great for sensitive skin types.

Swing by and chat with the team to find your perfect SPF match before your next day out on the town…downtown that is!

2. Dry Eyes? Not on our watch!


Sunglasses are a summer staple, of course, but did you know dry eyes are also more common this time of year? Hot weather, UV exposure, and outdoor activities can all cause increased tear evaporation, leaving your eyes irritated and tired.

💡 Visit Perspective Vision and ask about PRN Omega-3s, a highly purified, clinically tested supplement to relieve dry eye. These aren’t your average over-the-counter omega-3s, they’re made for better absorption and targeted results.

Bonus: Enjoy 20% off PRN Omega-3s for the month of July!

2. Don’t forget your hair!


Bet you didn’t know there’s such a thing as sunscreen for your hair. Well… kind of! Just like your skin, your hair can suffer from UV damage, becoming brittle, dry, and even discoloured with prolonged sun exposure.

💡 Stop by Waters Edge Salon and grab the SU Milk, a sun-protecting leave-in hair spray that helps shield your hair from UV damage while keeping it soft, shiny, and manageable.

And while you’re there, pick up the MOMO Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner. Chlorine, heat, and UV rays can strip your hair of moisture faster than you think. (Trust us, your hair will thank you!)

Soak up the season, not the sun damage!

No matter what summer throws your way, Burlington Downtown is your one-stop destination to keep your skin, eyes, and hair protected.
