Q What's the difference between water-resistant and waterproof?.

A The difference is minimal, says Perry Robins, MD, president and founder of the Skin Cancer Foundation, so reapply your sunscreen after every 30 minutes of swimming or sweating.

Q I love how tanning oil looks, but I haven't found one with enough SPF. Are there any?

A Yes. Spray on True Blue Spa Island Getaway Miraculous Monoi SPF 20, $16. It's a tanning oil that blends monoi oil, a natural Hawaiian oil, with high-octane SPF to give your skin and strands some serious sheen, minus the burn.

Q Sunscreen makes me break out. What can I do?

A It's simple, says David Leffell, MD, professor of dermatology and surgery at Yale University. Just use an oil-free, fragrance-free potion. We like Good Skin All Right Oil-Free Sunscreen SPF 30, $12.

Q Does sunscreen ever expire or go bad?
