- As summertime approaches,
it's important to remember to protect your skin.
Let's look at five tips to practice sun safety
while soaking up some rays.
- Tip number one: Protect your skin on sunny and cloudy days.
Remember that UVA and UVB rays can penetrate clouds
and damage your skin, even when it's overcast,
which makes sunscreen essential year round.
- Tip number two:
Apply sunscreen 15 minutes before sun exposure.
Infused with essential oils and other naturally derived
plant and mineral-based ingredients,
Young Living's Mineral Sunscreen Lotion
in SPF10 and SPF50 is a fun in the sun BFF.
This gentle, lightweight formula
helps prevent sunburn with non-nano zinc oxide.
- Our most popular formula is the SPF50.
Wondering what SPF stands for?
This acronym means "Sun Protection Factor,"
and is a way to measure how effective a product is against UV rays.
UVB rays cause short-term damage like sunburn,
while UVA rays cause long-term damage and premature aging.
Typically sunscreens protect only against UVB rays,
but great news, our Mineral Sunscreen Lotion with SPF50
protects against both types of UV rays.
- One thing to remember, SPF value doesn't necessarily
correspond with time in the sun or amount of UV protection.
But as a general rule, we recommend reapplying every two hours.
Let's dive into some of our other favorite features of
Young Living's Mineral Sunscreen Lotion SPF50.
- Our sunscreen uses a non-nano zinc particle formula.
What is a nano-particle?
Nano-particles are small particles
that can be absorbed into the bloodstream,
and can have unknown, possibly harmful effects on our bodies.
These particles are extremely small.
100,000 nano-particles could be lined up
across the width of a single piece of hair.
Since our bodies can absorb things through the skin,
we should always be conscious of the products that we apply.
Our sunscreen's non-nano particle zinc formula
provides a physical barrier to prevent sunburn
without the particles being absorbed into the bloodstream.
- Made with naturally derived ingredients,
our sunscreen is free of:
Avobenzone, oxybenzone, retinyl palmitate,
parabens, phthalates, petrochemicals,
PABA and 1, 4-dioxane, UV chemical absorbers,
artificial colors, and synthetic fragrances.
Traditional sunscreen ingredients like oxybenzone
and octinoxate are known to cause coral bleaching.
So when you use our mineral sunscreen,
you'll be protecting your body and keeping those
harsh chemicals out of the ocean.
- YL Sunscreen Lotion is formulated with a unique blend
of skin-loving essential oils like Helichrysum,
Lavender, Myrrh, Carrot Seed, and Frankincense.
- Did we mention that it's dermatologist reviewed
and formulated for those with sensitive skin,
including children and babies over six months?
It really is the perfect product for the whole family.
We're also very proud that this sunscreen can be used daily.
This makes it a skincare hero you can wear year round,
not just during warm weather.
- Our non-greasy, fast-absorbing formula is made
to smooth onto skin without a white residue.
So day good-bye to that blue tinge
or white cast from your zinc sunscreen.
Plus, those non-nano particles are coated with jojoba esters,
which allows them to blend easily into the skin,
perfect for getting out the door in a hurry.
- Now, for tip number three:
When using YL Mineral Sunscreen Lotion,
reapply after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating,
immediately after towel drying, or at least every two hours.
This will keep your skin happy during long days at the beach.
- Tip number four: Wear protective clothing.
Before you head out the door, remember to grab items
like your hat and your sunglasses for added protection.
Since the skin on the face is especially delicate,
it is important to keep it covered when spending time under the sun.
- Tip number five:
Refresh and recover with LavaDerm After-Sun Spray.
This plant-based, vegan-friendly formula contains
menthol for mint to soothe and cool the skin,
providing immediately relief from the effects of outdoor activity.
Ingredients like Aloe, Lavender Essential Oil,
and Helichrysum Essential Oil provide moisturizing benefits,
leaving your skin feeling soft and smooth.
- Here are some of our favorite features of LavaDerm After-Sun Spray.
This after-sun care soothes and cools skin after long,
hot hours in the sun, and provides immediate relief.
So you can enjoy the rest of your day.
- LavaDerm After-Sun Spray is a must-have for post-beach skin care.
Since it moisturizes skin, it can help prevent peeling,
so you can keep your complexion clear after a day outside.
- With a vegan-friendly formula, made without alcohol,
synthetic fragrances, or synthetic colorants,
LavaDerm After-Sun Spray is safe to use for the whole family
at the beach, on a hike, or during any outdoor activity.
- Best of all, this spray temporarily relieves the pain
and itching associated with minor burns, sunburns,
minor cuts, scrapes, insect bites and minor skin irritations,
making it a skin care essential for every adventure.
