4. BIOTHERM Hydra-Detox Detoxifying Cleanser for Men is a foamy facial cleanser that flushes out sweat and oils embedded in pores, removes dead skin, and softens the face for shaving. The vitamin E inside helps provide further relief from both UVA and UVB rays. ($16; 888-246-8437, www.biotherm.com)

5. Sun damages your hair, too. REDKEN Sun Shape Shampoo uses vitamin A and natural oils to soften up the brittle strands that come from sun exposure, sweat, and chlorine. Then it coats your hair with a sunscreen. ($9; 800-733-5368, www.redken.com)

6. As for the rest of your body, rub in a big healthy dose of MURAD's Age-Proof Waterproof Sunblock SPF 30, which takes a two-pronged approach to sun protection. This face-and-body lotion uses several sunscreens to block out UVA and UVB rays. Then antioxidant vitamins C and E, along with something Murad calls "collagen-strengthening formula," soothe the skin while also repairing it. ($25; 800-336-8723, www.murad.com)
