It may be August, but the sun is still burning hot and long, and it’s powerful. When we’re busy sporting sandals, tank tops, sundresses and swimsuits, it’s smart to lather up the sunscreen – year round, in fact, but especially now.
Your skin is the largest organ of the human body and it absorbs what you put on it. Be sure to choose a sunscreen that is chemical-free. Chemical sunscreens use one or more chemicals including oxybenzone, avobenzone, octisalate, octocrylene, homosalate and octinoxate. These chemicals can pass your skin and move into the tissues of your body, possibly disrupting your endocrine system, thyroid processes and hormones.
Some of our favorite safe brands for use include La Roche-Posay Anthelios, Drunk Elephant Umbra Sheer Physical Defense SPF, and MDSolarSciences Mineral Sunscreen Stick.
Shop smart when it comes to sunscreen. Great skin and health will be your reward, and those are priceless!
