I just ordered this and had to share. Whether it works or not is yet to be seen but I'll do anything to lessen mine and my son's sun exposure. My hubby is more difficult to manage-- he fights me when I chase after him with sunscreen before he golfs only to complain when he burns and peels and asks me to fix him (I swear he is the 4 year old in the family sometimes!). The new SunMate promises to measure the Sun's Ultraviolet Intensity (don't be fooled by cloudy days, the sun's most damaging rays penetrate the clouds!) The SunMate will measure the intensity of the Sun's strength, so you know when to reapply sunscreen. It alerts you of possible over-exposure to ultravoilet rays from the Sun by an LED indicator and is super easy to use. Just press the white button on top and you're set to go. SunMate is $20 here.
SunMate - Don't Beach without it this summer!

Do they still do that children's sunscreen that changes colour when it's time to reapply? Or did I imagine that?
omg i went to the website to check my city's uv index and in dallas its a 10 out of 11! thats so frightening!now i feel thats i've got to grab the spf 70 sunscreen now just to drive my car!
They also make wristbands that change color when it's time to reapply sunscreen. Here's the link to them: http://www.spaweekblog.com/?p=1875
