Sunscreen Challenge - The Best Blocks for Burn-Free Skin

- 09/21/2009
I just got back from Belize. It was hot, ridiculously humid, and very sunny. I refer to myself as pigment-deprived -- meaning I am very fair-skinned and prone to sun damage -- so I needed the best sunscreen known to man that could withstand the tropical environment. I put a bunch of them to the test. Here are my top skin-saving picks! "Most Convenient: …I love the very portable Mission Skincare Anti-Sting Sunscreen SPF 30+ Facestick for my lips, ears and around my eyes (my mom uses it on her whole face)…" more

GLAMOUR Magazine: Do You Ever Get Rubbed The Wrong Way?

- 09/21/2009
You guys know I'm into running. But sometimes my favorite hobby (obsession?) hurts. I'm not talking about the sore muscles, bruised toenails (just lost one on Friday, oops) or achy joints. I'm talking about chaffing, people. Usually a long run leaves with me with painful red marks in the oh-so-sexy spots where my sports bra and sweat like to mingle. But I'm happy to report that yesterday's jog around the city (literally, I ran around the island of Manhattan) was chafe free. The genius product that made it possible: Mission Skincare High Performance Anti-Friction Cream. Word on the street, it was designed by pro athletes Amanda Beard and Serena Williams and ultra endurance runners Charlie Engle, Kevin Lin and Ray Zahab (they ran across the Sahara desert together). On top of that it's full of great natural ingredients and doesn't have any parabens. Go team! My mileage yesterday definitely puts me in the rock star category (feel free to tell me how great I am in the comments below). But that's nothing compared to my buddy Matt Long. He's come a long way to overcome a major set back and this weekend he completed the Lake Placid Ironman 2009. I'm so proud of him! Check out his foundation to learn more about his phenomenal accomplishment. (And leave him some comments below while you're at it!) Were you a rock star this weekend? Got any product advice for the ugly side of working out: chafing, blisters or sweating? more

SHAPE Magazine 2009 Beauty Awards: Winner: Best Newcomer!

- 09/21/2009
shape of beauty awards 2009 BEST NEWCOMER Mission Skincare High Performance Anti-Friction Cream. Shape readers and editors loved this new line designed by athletes (including tennis star Serena Williams, soccer player Mia Hamm, and gold medal swimmer Amanda Beard). It includes 8 innovative products, such sunscreen, lip balm, and foot gel, all made to stand up to the demands of an active lifestyle. But our testers deemed the Anti-Friction Cream the standout star. The multipurpose, silicone-based balm stops chaffing and irritation caused by rubbing. "I slathered it on my feet before a long day of walking around the city in brand-new strappy sandals," reported one. "Not only did the product stay on for hours, but at the end of the day, my feet were blister-free." more



New Beauty Magazine: A cleanser that scores points with sporty women!

- 09/21/2009
A cleanser that scores points with sporty women If there's anyone who knows the importance of a great cleanser, it's an athlete. All that sweat can knock skin out of whack, so a face wash that detoxifies without dehydrating is an absolute must. Therefore, when someone like Serena Williams puts her signature on cleanser, we trust that it lives up to some pretty high standards. Mission Skincare has won over winners like Serena Williams due to their "athlete-engineered" products, including Active Daily Facial Cleanser. This highly hydrating formula thoroughly removes dirt and makeup from any skin type as it softens, protects and nourishes with antioxidant extracts like that of grapeseed, tea leaf, aloe and grapefruit, not to mention vitamin E. Perhaps the coolest characteristic of Active Daily Facial Cleanser is how it works. You spread the gel over your face, and in about a minute, it turns into a rich foam. This lather indicates that your face is fully cleansed, and you didn't even have to exert yourself by scrubbing or rubbing. After all, athletes deserve a break at the end of day-and so do you. more



MISSION Skincare Named Official Sunscreen Provider of the PGA TOUR Superstore World Am Championship!

- 09/21/2009
Mission Skincare Named Official Sunscreen Provider Of The PGA Tour Superstore World Amateur Handicap Championship Athlete Engineered Sunscreen Will Protect World Amateur Players From August Heat August 25, 2009, Myrtle Beach, S.C. - Mission Skincare, which counts Sergio Garcia, Serena Williams and Mia Hamm among its many devotees, is the official sunscreen provider of the 2009 PGA TOUR Superstore World Amateur Handicap Championship. The World Am, which will be held August 31 through September 4, is the world's largest single-site amateur golf tournament, attracting golfers from 45 states and more than 20 foreign countries. Mission will provide each of the tournament's 3,000+ participants with sunscreen, an essential item to protect them from the South Carolina sun. "Mission is the leading maker of athlete engineered sunscreen," tournament director Dave Macpherson said. "As much as we want PGA TOUR Superstore World Amateur Handicap Championship players to have a good time, we also want to protect them from the sun and there is no better product on the market than Mission." A 72-hole stroke play tournament, the World Amateur attracts golfers of all skill levels, grouping them in tightly bunched flights based on handicap and age (there are six different divisions). Players play under PGA Tour-like conditions, though carts are allowed, competing to win their flight and a spot in the World Championship Playoff at the famed Dunes Golf & Beach Club. At night, players gather at the Myrtle Beach Convention Center, better known as the World Largest 19th Hole. All tournament participants and a guest can attend the 19th Hole where free food from some of Myrtle Beach's best restaurants, free drinks and live entertainment are provided. The 19th Hole is also home to a golf expo, demo areas, instructional clinics from some of the game's leading teachers and more.

Health.com: The Best Spray Sunscreen Ever

- 06/26/2009
Summer may quickly be coming to a close, but that doesn't give you an excuse to slack on your sunscreen routine. Long weekend afternoons spent at the soccer field or working in the yard still put you at risk for sun damage. After all, skin cancer is the most common cancer in the United States, with more than 68,000 cases of melanoma diagnosed each year. Need another reason to slather on some sunscreen? I may be diligent about applying it in the hot summer sun, but once the temperature starts to fall, there goes my sunscreen routine. Who likes smelling like the stuff once the season has passed? Not me. That's why I love Mission Skincare's fragrance-free formulas. Although I normally shy away from sprays-I always wind up with sunburn blotches-I swooned over Mission's Fast-Drying Sunscreen 30+ Spray ($10; missionskincare.com). It's quick, easy, and non-greasy, so I don't wind up sticking to my clothes. I plan on toting a bottle in my purse every weekend this fall. Mission is endorsed by top athletes like Serena Williams, Sergio Garcia, and Mia Hamm, so while I may be more of a sideliner than an all-star on the soccer field, I can at least feel like a skin-care pro. more
