This sunscreen formulation provides the most safe and effective hypo-allergenic, nanoparticle-free sun protection available, using only the finest natural and organic ingredients.

The titanium and zinc in this product are micronized particle size, roughly 10 times larger than nanoparticle size. Why is this relevant? Mineral sunblocks with micronized particles take a bit of getting used to because they leave a white film on the skin that nanoparticle-based sunscreens do not. Basically, the white film is what protects your skin and it is where you want it – on TOP of the skin.

Remember to apply the sunscreen correctly by rubbing it in your hands first then laying it on the skin, waiting 20-30 seconds, then stroking it on lightly. Sunscreens should never be rubbed in.

What sense does it make to protect your skin from UVA and UVB rays while at the same time absorbing toxic, harmful ingredients? In recent years, research has indicated that many of the chemicals used in most sunscreens are estrogenic. These hormone disrupting agents should not be on our bodies or in the waters in which we swim, and may very well cause even more damage to our bodies than the sun.

Lotus Moon recommends avoiding the following ingredients in any sunscreen product: Oxybenzone, Homosalate, Benzephenone 3, Octy Salicylate, Methyl anthranilate, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Octyl Methozycinnamate, and Octyl Dimethyl Paba.
