Coppertone® Whips Up a Whole New Way to Love Sunscreen

Experience the interactive Multichannel News Release here: https://www.multivu.com/players/English/8113551-coppertone-sunscreen-clearlysheer-whipped/

The Whipped line, available in both CLEARLYSheer® and WaterBABIES® Pure & Simple formulas, transforms the sunscreen application process from an ordinary task to an experience people can look forward to before they head out into the sunshine. While many other sunscreen lotions can feel heavy or sticky, Whipped has a rich and creamy texture, yet it absorbs quickly and feels light on skin. Plus it won't clog pores and leaves skin feeling soft and smooth while helping to protect it from the sun's harmful UV rays.

"At Coppertone, we're dedicated to championing a worry-free life in the sun for everyone, focusing solely on developing innovative and expert sun protection. That's why we're approaching this year's Whipped launch in a new and different way," said Lisa Perez, Marketing Director, Suncare at Bayer. "Sunscreen lovers will have a chance to interact with and learn all about Coppertone Whipped through creative content, in-store product samplings, trusted beauty influencers, and more on-the-ground experiences."

This season's activities demonstrate the brand's commitment to helping people enjoy their favorite outdoor experiences while assuring them their skin is well protected with Coppertone. Check out some of the ways the brand is bringing Coppertone® Whipped to outdoor enthusiasts this summer:

• Promoting the ProtectMy Social Media Sweepstakes and Contest, in which people have the chance to win multiple prizes, including a $5,000 trip! ProtectMy encourages people to share what they want to protect most this summer through social media channels.
