3. Beach Defense Water + Sun Barrier Spray Sunscreen 

Protects from excessive heat and direct sun. Waterproof for 80 minutes. Beach-strength UVA/UVB sun protection. Oil free.  

 

4. Leave-in Conditioner 

Create soft and smooth beach waves after you get out of the water:

 

 

  • Soy and Tri-Wheat Proteins penetrate the hair, while moisturizers detangle for softness. Soy also cannot over proteinize the hair
  • Cocoa Replenishes hair’s moisture, has intensive repairing qualities, provides deep conditioning and strengthening properties and promotes soft and manageable hair.
