Eco-Sunscreen

Beach Week - Eco-Sunscreen

Want the right stuff to ward off summer sunburns?

The Bite:
Skip the reunion tour with conventional lotions and slather eco-sunscreens on your kiddos. With mineral-based blocks, you'll protect them from harmful UV rays (but alas, not boy bands) and hang tough against cruddy chems. 
The Benefits: 
  • Taking a safe step (by step). Conventional UV blocker chemoxybenzone allows other toxins found in standard 'screens to seep into your bloodstream through your skin. These picks block rays using nontoxic minerals zinc oxide and titanium dioxide.
  • No false(tto) fragrances. Conventional sunscreens often contain perfumes, a source of VOCs and hormone-disrupting phthalates. Eco-'screens use essential oils for scent.
  • Oh, oh, ohhhh so much better for marine life. Common chems in regular sunscreens wash off swimmers and destroy our coral reefs. These steer clear of the stuff.
Wanna Try: 
Cash Saver:
