5 Benefits of Using Chemical-Free Sunscreen

Mineral Sunscreens are Chemical-Free and Provide Safe and Effective SPF benefits

Seasonal changes can affect your skin in so many different ways – especially with conventional sunscreen! You should always try to take the best care possible of your largest organ – your skin. No matter what season it is, you can still get sun exposure when being outside. So take added precaution – especially this summer when stronger UVA rays & UVB rays are more present.

In this post we’ll be discussing the non toxic sunscreen benefits and the LASPA chemical-free mineral sunscreen product line. Here are 5 benefits of using chemical free sunscreen as your next sunscreen product.

Natural Sunscreen and Benefits of Chemical Free-Options

Using safer sunscreen means using less chemical sunscreen ingredients which often times exposes your skin to even more harmful ingredients and can often cause irritation. To combat this, it is best to use organic sunscreen or a natural mineral formula to help add a layer of protection for your skin.

LASPA Naturals offers a mineral based sunscreen with natural ingredients that will benefit anyone. Often, many sunscreens on the market are filled more than just one toxic ingredient and contain many chemical sunscreen formulas that can cause irritation – especially for sensitive skin. LASPA’s sunscreens contain only the good stuff, so you don’t have to worry about exposing your skin to toxic chemicals.

All-Natural

When it comes to sun protection, reach for sunscreens that state all-natural made with minimally modified ingredients found in nature, like mineral-based. Sunscreens use either a physical or chemical filter to protect your skin from the sun’s rays. Zinc Oxide (as used by LASPA) and Titanium Dioxide are natural mineral sunblocks that sit on your skin and stop both UVA rays and UVB rays from penetrating your skin. Chemical sunscreens use synthetic chemicals to reflect the sun’s rays after they have penetrated the skin‘s surface. These chemical options can affect hormones and allergies in humans.

Cruelty-Free

You can feel safe layering on sunscreen and soaking up the sun outdoors knowing that your skin is being well protected with LASPA mineral-sunscreens that are cruelty-free. That means none of the LASPA products have ever been tested on animals, only on humans. This ensures the formulations are efficacious and deliver the safest protection available for sensitive skin while exposed to UVA/UVB rays.

Reef Safe

Making the switch to using mineral-based sunscreens is one easy step that your skincare beauty habits can benefit from to help tackle climate change. Hawaii recently banned some key ingredients in sunscreens including oxybenzone. This ingredient can be found in many chemical-based sunscreens that are known to damage coral reefs, cause coral bleaching and lead to coral death. Sunscreens that don’t include oxybenzone are safe for the environment and coral-reef.

Consider reef safe options like LASPA mineral sunscreen, meaning it will not harm aquatic life, it is free of chemical sun blockers and contains skin nourishing natural plant-based extracts. And most importantly, don’t forget to reapply a very generous amount of mineral sunscreen every two hours and as well as after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating to receive the maximum SPF benefits.

Fragrance-Free and Hypoallergenic

Many people suffer from skin allergies so it is important to read the labels and sunscreen ingredients and look for mineral SPF options that are fragrance-free and hypoallergenic. By choosing sunscreen that is hypoallergenic it means that the product creator has taken the proper steps to ensure its mineral-based ingredients used in its formula cause fewer allergic reactions. One skin-friendly option often used as an ingredient in mineral sunscreens that provides safe yet effective SPF protection is Zinc Oxide. Zinc Oxide found in LASPA Naturals 100% mineral-based sunscreens reduces or eliminates the risk of allergies or skin irritation that can be caused by the chemicals used in chemical sun filters.

Provides Immediate SPF Protection

Upon application, chemical-based sunscreens require you wait at least 20 minutes before sun exposure as it needs to absorb into the skin. The benefits of using Zinc-Oxide based sunscreens (LASPA Naturals) is that it is effective immediately upon application to the skin. This allows you to receive the full benefits of broad spectrum against UVA/UVB rays whereas chemical sunscreens do not provide this function. Summer is a short season so why not squeeze out every ounce of it by using a skin-friendly, fragrance-free and natural mineral-based sunscreen formula that provides immediate protection. Help protect your sensitive skin and the environment by using LASPA Naturals.
