I am headed to the islands tomorrow for a week! Besides my regular skin care, what else should I purchase to bring along? Most of my time will be spent on the beach. My skin is combo but leaning more towards the oily side (esp. the T zone). Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks! |

A really good sunscreen (along with bug spray)!
Have a good time, wish I could stow along! It's been a year and I really miss it. |

Thanks! I usually use LRP Anthelios SX
Daily Moisturizer with SPF - is that good enough or should I go purchase something else? |

I would think if it protects well in summer yes, but remember it's the tropics and you are closer to the sun, so be on guard and reapply. How easily you burn plays into it also. |

Ooh, an umbrella/parasol too, to help protect from the sun. Have fun! |

And also that you are in the sun longer (or at least I am always am), exept for a some shade now and then. When I am there, all day is out side and on the beach and in the water. The only time I seem to be out of it is in the evening when the sun goes down and we are dancing under the stars! |

Thanks everyone! Went and had a great time. Picked up the LRP SPF 60 last minute for the face. I was worried it may be too greasy as my skin is on the oilier side, but it was great. The matte finish was just as advertised. |
