Wondering when to reapply sunscreen? There’s an app for that.

Not surprisingly, we’re huge fans of sunscreen.

But we’re also the first to admit that after the first application, it gets a little tricky… when is it time to reapply? After lunch? After the next round of swimming? After just one more chapter of that wonderfully trashy novel? Tough call.

Wouldn’t it be cool if your iPhone would nudge you a bit to let you know? Or maybe give you real-time UV index numbers? Well, it can.

Here are a few apps dedicated to sunburn protection. All of them link to the Apple store, showing complete descriptions and screenshots.

Retrieves near-real-time data of the UV radiation for your location,  calculates the time you can safely expose to sun and more.

Offers local UV index forecasts, custom sunscreen reapplication reminders, individualized product recommendations for Coppertone products (of course), coupons and sun protection tips.

Gives you the UV Index for your location and any location in the United States.

Pretty cool, huh? Of course, this all depends on having some good quality sunscreen at the ready, so make sure you’re stocked up. A great place to start is at Dean Essentials Skin Care.
