School is out for the summer! I figured it’d be a great time to let you know all about sunscreen that maybe you had no idea about! I’m a total geek when it comes to learning because I’m a believer that knowledge is power and once we know better, we can make a difference by trying to do better.
Sun = wrinkles. Here is what your sunscreen should be protecting you from:
Now let’s talk about SPF. I think many are mislead. Many assume because their sunscreen has a higher SPF, then that means their sunscreen will block so much more UV rays. Not really. Using sunscreen with a higher SPF also doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t reapply sunscreen that’s stated on the bottle.
Oxybenzone and octinoxate are active ingredients in sunscreen with the potential to contribute to the damage of coral reefs
Mineral sunscreen vs Chemical sunscreen:
This article from Time.com is worth reading! “…researchers found that some of the active ingredients in sunscreen are absorbed into the body and into the bloodstream.”
I’m a huge fan of Beautycounter‘s sunscreens! I love a brand that has the consumer’s health in mind, but also they make sure the performance of their products is top notch! Beautycounter offers mineral sunscreens that use non-nano zinc oxide, a mineral (physical) blocker that sits on the surface of the skin and bounces sun’s rays away.
Here are the various kinds of sunscreens that Beautycounter offers:
I love using the stick and the mist for the kids. I love how the stick is small and can fit in my purse or back pocket! This is perfect to apply on the face! The mist is another favorite. I love how it goes on white so I know where I’m applying it on the kids. Plus, it blends easily!
These tinted sunscreen mists have been a fan favorite! It comes in 2 different shades. Many physical sunscreens can leave a chalky residue. These innovative formulations match a wider range of skin tones—and also help camouflage imperfections and even skin tone. For my friends who have a lighter complexion, the light-medium will be more of your skin tone. The medium-deep will look like you have a nice bronze glow. Keep in mind, these aren’t self tanners. These are tinted sunscreen!
