Description
Back 2 Nature ACTIVE ZINC | SPF 30, 50G. Non-nano zinc based sun shield. The combination of natural minerals, oils & waxes nourish & protect your skin whilst exposed to the sun & effectively reflect out harmful UVA & UVB rays. SPF 30 protects your skin for 97% of UVB rays. (SPF 50 is 98%). If your skin type takes 10 minute to burn, SPF 30 provides you with 30 times the protection of no sunscreen. That means 30 times longer before you start to burn, so in this case 300 minutes, provided that you have a generous visible layer applied to your skin. Chemical sunscreens use ingredients like oxybenzone or octinoxate that absorb UV rays & break them down before they reach the skin, but need 20 or 30 minutes to bind to skin to be effective. These chemicals can also be found in the blood stream within 30 min Back 2 Nature has specifically formulated a combination of natural ingredients that are 100% healthy for your skin & healthy for our Planet. We strive to keep our bodies & environment free from any harmful chemicals or preservatives such as parabens, oxybenzone, avobenzone, octisalate & methoxycinnamate, which are found in most conventional sunscreens. Such toxic chemicals contribute to coral bleaching & disrupt a variety of human & marine animal functions. We aim to leave nothing but footprints on our coast lines & soil, giving ‘back to nature’ all the love, respect & protection it deserves.
