What sun filters do you use in your Sun lotions?Updated 13 hours ago

We offer both Mineral only Sun Lotions and Mineral & chemical Sun Creams, giving you the choice of what works best for your skin and preferences.

Mineral Filters (Physical Sunscreens):

Mineral filters work by sitting on the skin's surface and reflecting UV light away. They are often preferred for sensitive skin and children due to their gentle, non-reactive nature.

We use only non-nano forms of:

• Titanium Dioxide
• Zinc Oxide

These are natural, broad-spectrum filters that do not penetrate the skin or enter the bloodstream.

Chemical Filters (Organic Sunscreens):

Chemical filters work by absorbing UV rays and converting them into heat through a chemical reaction. Some chemical filters may release free radicals as a by-product of this process, but we carefully select filters with low reactivity and high skin compatibility.

Our chemical filters include:

• Isoamyl p-Methoxycinnamate
  Derived from cinnamic acid, this UVB filter has a much lower potential for free-radical generation compared to conventional filters.
• Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate
  A UVA filter known for its excellent safety profile. It’s well-tolerated by even sensitive skin and suitable for use in children’s sun lotions.
• Diethylhexyl Butamido Triazone
  A super photostable UVB filter, rated as a ‘Green’ ingredient by the EWG Skin Deep Database (score of 1–2). It is free from known health or environmental concerns.

Antioxidant Protection:

To help counteract any potential free-radical damage, we enrich all our sun lotions with powerful natural antioxidants, including:

• Green Tea
• Olive Leaf
• Edelweiss
• Rosemary
• Avocado Oil

These ingredients help protect your skin on a deeper level, providing both soothing and restorative benefits.
