Yes, the products only contain safe filters that are not tested for hormone disruption.

Yes, our sunscreen is developed to be environmentally friendly and therefore does not contain any organic UV filters that are known to, or suspected of, affecting aquatic organisms. They also do not contain any of the organic UV filters suspected of being harmful to corals and are therefore “reef safe”.

Our sunscreens contain both titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, the latter of which is particularly associated with environmentally problematic properties. Zinc is a substance that occurs naturally in the environment and is essential for all cells and organisms to function normally. Therefore, only higher levels of zinc can be toxic. Our sunscreen contains a small amount of zinc, which provides a limited spread and addition of zinc to the environment.

Overall, we have assessed that the low amount has a very small impact on the natural amount already present in our environment, and that the positive benefits of zinc oxide in sunscreen products outweigh the risks of its use, and that our product does not pose an environmental problem.
