Summer is almost here! We’re excited to announce that through July 31, all sunscreen at Manhattan Dermatology is 20% off!
When heading outdoors, remember that the morning sunscreen application is the most important. Try to put it on before you leave the house (especially on the kiddos) so it doesn’t get washed off so easily in the pools or at the beach. You should have to rub it in pretty well —otherwise you are not using enough.
Here are some of Dr. Magovern’s favorites for summer…

- EltaMD UV Daily SPF 40—great moisturizing base, good for normal-to-dry skin. ($24)
