JANE'S ADDICTION

Everyone in the Pool

W’s beauty director has found the ultimate waterproof sunscreen

La Roche-Posay Waterproof Sunscreen

I try to go Kayaking every weekend, but being under the sun and surrounded by—or, very likely, falling into—the water has always meant glopping a thick sunscreen onto my pasty, alabaster skin. This new super light spray from La Roche-Posay is formulated with something they call micro-shield technology. Translation: It feels silky on skin but it protects even wet skin for 80 minutes—just about as long my average kayak outing.
