Collection: Natural Sun Protection

Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a natural option as a sunblock. It is a white, inorganic compound created from metallic zinc. 
Unlike nano-particle minerals and chemical sun blocks, zinc doesn’t interfere with the health or respiration of the skin. The molecular size of zinc particles is too large to be absorbed by the skin. Instead, it sits on top and absorbs sun rays, protecting the skin.

Topical applications should be the last resort for sun protection. Sitting in the shade, wearing sun-protective clothing and a hat, and limiting your total sun exposure time are vital parts of a good sun-protection plan.
