Why Our Sunscreen is Zinc Based

Zinc

 It Protects Skin from Sun Damage Zinc oxide sunscreen provides broad-spectrum protection against ultraviolet rays, including UVA and UVB rays. In addition, this type of sunscreen is more efficient than most chemical sunscreens, which only block a kind of UV light. There is evidence that zinc does not cause cancer; it will decrease the risks of the body developing Myeloma. It also helps with many other things, including helping prevent skin irritations and diaper rashes; our product is made for sensitive skin. 

Zinc is found naturally in the environment and seawater. You might say that many zinc-based sunscreens are promoted to be safe-to-use even for kids, which is correct. Mineral sunscreens don’t cause coral bleaching, but recent studies prove that nano zinc oxide caused disorders in sea life.

Our other passion is helping our Oceans. Coral reefs are in danger worldwide, and besides global warming and rising sea temperatures, harmful ingredients in sunscreen have a significant impact on marine life. Most common sunblocks contain chemicals such as oxybenzone, octinoxate, and avobenzone. These are proven to cause coral bleaching, moreover can be dangerous for the human body too. For your safety and to preserve sensitive underwater ecosystems, make sure to choose eco-friendly sun protection products. In this guide, we explain what ingredients you should avoid and what is safe to use.
