Damage due to harmful UVA/UVB rays is the most common cause of dry skin, damaged moisture barriers, and aging concerns. If you want healthier and better looking skin, then you must have a good all-natural SPF cream and/or lotion in your routine. The SPF product protects your skin from UV ray damage, helps to heal already damaged skin, works with your moisture barrier, and is non-comedogenic/non-clogging to prevent breakouts. So, how do you decide what product is the right fit? In this helpful guide we’ll walk you through how SPF works, what to avoid, and recommended products that work with your specific skin type.
A Quick Understanding of SPF
SPF is a measure of how much UV radiation is required to produce sunburn on protected skin relative to the amount of solar energy required to produce sunburn on unprotected skin. As the SPF value increases, sunburn protection increases. So, if you have super sensitive skin that burns easily after 5 minutes of exposure, then SPF30 will give you adequate protection for 150+ minutes. SPF ratings are the guaranteed value for the most burn-prone skin. You will find that SPF30 & SPF50 ratings will provide lasting protection far exceeding the minimum time frame.
Natural Mineral Sunscreens vs Non-Natural Sunscreens
Whether you’re wearing a natural sunblock or drug store spray on sunscreen, it’s important to know the benefits and draw-backs of the different types of protection.
RSC Natural Mineral Sunscreens:
- Safer for sensitive skin
- More moisturizing
- Occasionally heavier and may some white cast. RSC solves this with a unique blend of zinc and titanium whilst including other natural sun protection ingredients allowing it to soak into the skin so it feels light and breathable
- Non-comedogenic/Non-clogging
- Can wear underneath makeup!
Non-Natural Sunscreens:
- Chemical sunscreens last longer when swimming
- Much lighter on the skin
- Oil-Free
- Can cause irritation to skin, lungs, and can be formulated with environmentally harmful ingredients.
Harnessing Nature's Defenses: Natural SPF Ingredients
Zinc is the most active factor in our formulations for mineral sun screens and day creams. It is a natural and vegan-friendly ingredient with a versatile range of benefits. It is antimicrobial and non-comedogenic. Sun protection products formulated with zinc are especially helpful with those struggling with sensitive skin issues, rosacea, and acne-prone skin. Zinc is very helpful in healing damaged skin and preventing breakouts.
Part of our philosophy of protecting your skin is actively healing it. Using nutritious oils, herbs, and butters like shea, rosehip, jojoba, and green tea to aid in rejuvenating damaged skin, heal burns, reduce sensitivity, and increase the rate of healing within all layers of your skin.
