Splurge or Save Thursday: Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen

Sunscreen has come a long way from the heavy, greasy goop I used to slather on for camp. There are countless options, but my favorite for everyday use is Neutrogena’s Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion.
This water-resistant, non-comedogenic, broad-spectrum sunscreen goes on like your favorite lotion and absorbs quickly. It feels sheer and light — I almost forget I’m wearing sunscreen. Since I’ll be spending more time socializing outdoors, I’ll be sure to stock up on this drugstore bargain.
This sunscreen is available at many retailers, including Target for $9.99. It comes in SPF 30, 45, 55, and 100.
P.S. Happy Eid to those who celebrate!

- The concept of “backup care” is so stupid…
- I need tips on managing employees in BigLaw who have to leave for daycare pickup…
- I’m thinking of leaning out to spend more time with my family – how can I find the perfect job for that?
- I’m now a SAHM and my husband needs to step up…
- How can I change my thinking to better recognize some of my husband’s contributions as important, like organizing the shed?

Help! My 17 month old has 104 fever. I’m about 99% positive he has the stomach bug that his sister just got over. But we can’t get him to take any medicine. What do we do if he refuses medicine? He did drink a bit of juice so not as worried about dehydration, just the high fever. Doctor’s office hasn’t opened yet . .. .
goggle recommendations for my 3 year old who is about to start swim lessons for the first time?
Has anyone been to Oahu with little kids? Going next month with my mom and 3 year old. We have a condo on Waikiki and will probably spend most of our time on that beach, but if there are beaches or other activities your toddlers or preschoolers loved I’d love recommendations.
My family is growing and I think it’s finally time for a mini-van. Anyone have any recommendations on vehicles or must-have features? I’m going to have car seats in both rows, so I’m worried about logistics!
Unsolicited jean recommendation – Old Navy’s OG High Waisted Straight Ankle Jeans are very similar to the Levi’s Wedgie fit and about $30. They also have them in Talls so you can get a 32″ inseam if you don’t like ankle jeans like me (or Petite for 26″ inseam; regular is 28″). I’m a little short waisted and these aren’t unbearably high for me – they just cover my belly button – and they fit my very healthy thighs well. They are also 99% cotton and available in several washes.
Did someone post a site that had a quiz about division of labour? Can anyone repost the link?
Ugh this CDC guidance about vaccinated people not needing masks anywhere. I get that vaccinated people are unlikely to get or spread Covid. That’s cool. We’re vaccinated and we see other vaccinated people that we know and trust (and their kids) indoors without masks on. But this seems like it’s just going to open the floodgates to *no one* wearing masks in public, and since almost half the adults and the vast majority of the kids in this country are still unvaccinated, it’s going to lead to a lot of unnecessary Covid cases.
I’m also really confused about schools – so we’re going to tell vaccinated teachers they can stop wearing masks but kids will keep having to wear them? And what about all the other school restrictions like cohorting and classroom quarantines – are we just cool with all that stuff sticking around forever as long as we can ditch our masks? It just seems so backwards to me. Masks aren’t fun, but they’re so much less burdensome than all the other restrictions.
