With summer less than two months away, most people are starting to plan their outdoor activities. No matter what outdoor activity you choose, it’s important to wear sunscreen to protect your skin. The American Cancer Society indicates that around 3.3 million Americans are diagnosed with basal and squamous cell skin cancers every year. While it’s impossible to avoid the sun, wearing sunscreen on a daily basis can help protect your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays. Let’s take a look at one of Signa Scents’ all-natural products – Sunsational Sunscreen.
What is Sunsational Sunscreen?
Sunsational Sunscreen is an all-natural sunscreen with SPF 30 that does not contain any preservatives, artificial ingredients, or chemicals. This sunscreen is safe for all ages, including babies and the entire family.
Our sunscreen comes in two versions to suit all your needs. You will love our 2 ounce jarred version that is great for at home use. If you are on the go, your family will appreciate the convenient squeeze tube that makes it quick and easy to apply.
What Are the Ingredients?
Sunsational Sunscreen contains the following ingredients:
- Essential Oils (gives it a fresh, natural scent that even men enjoy)
- Grapeseed oil
- Organic coconut oil
- Raw, unrefined shea butter
- Soy
- Vitamin E
- Zinc Oxide
Is Your Sunscreen Waterproof?
Like most sunscreens, Sunsational Sunscreen contains waterproof properties. If you will be doing water activities, we recommend that you reapply our sunscreen every 20 to 30 minutes to ensure the sunscreen can protect your skin. Also, it’s best to reapply sunscreen at least every 2 hours that you are in the sun.
What Are the Benefits of Using a Natural Sunscreen with Zinc Oxide?
Aside from titanium dioxide, zinc oxide is the only other natural sunscreen ingredient approved by the FDA. Zinc oxide is a mineral that is used in several common products, such as baby powder, sunscreen, and diaper rash cream.
This natural ingredient is known as a natural or physical sunscreen because it acts as tiny shields that protect your skin from sun exposure. Indeed, this is much different from chemical sunscreens, which contain ingredients that absorb UV rays. Since many people are sensitive to chemical sunscreens, physical sunscreens are a safe alternative that offers sun protection without the skin irritations or hormone disruptors linked to chemical versions.
Additionally, natural sunscreens with zinc oxide are a great diaper rash cream. In fact, diaper rash creams contain zinc oxide, which is the ingredient responsible for soothing and healing a baby’s irritated bottom. If you have a baby, you can use our sunscreen as an all natural diaper rash cream!
