The best coral reef-friendly sunscreens that will help protect your skin AND the earth
Last year, Hawaii became the first (and only) U.S. state to ban the sale of sunscreen that contains coral-harming chemicals oxybenzone and octinoxate. The law officially goes into effect in 2021, at which point the sale of sunscreens that are formulated with the two ingredients will be prohibited.
Below are 14 coral reef-friendly sunscreens to pack on your next vacation, to keep your skin and the oceans safe and healthy.

6 Natural Sunscreens To Have On Your Radar This Summer
We can’t get enough of LASPA’s mineral sunscreens because they are natural and use zinc oxide, which protects your skin from harsh UVA and UVB rays, instead of toxic chemicals. It’s also fragrance-free, water, and sweat resistant, too. But what really makes this Toronto-based company’s sunscreen a game changer is its both lightweight, translucent, and it applies easily onto your skin, leaving behind no white residue or greasy feel.

Confused About How to Care for Your Oily Skin? These Are the Products You Need
Like all skin types, oily skin comes with its own distinct set of needs and quirks that can sometimes be frustrating—especially once humid, sweaty summer days set in. But if oily skin is getting you down, remember that this is a skin type that has many benefits, too: Skin needs oil to be healthy, and people with skin that falls on the oilier side tend to have fewer fine lines and a thicker skin. But there can also be too much of a good thing. Like most things in life, the key to caring for your skin is to find a balance, and this is something that can be achieved through using the right products for your skin and developing good skincare habits. Following a regime that includes cleansing (especially before bed!), hydrating (yes, oily skin still needs moisturizer) and protecting will help your oily skin to find its happy place.
Best Sunscreens for Oily Skin
Forget the greasy sunscreen of your youth. If you’ve ever been averse to applying SPF to your face because of the potential slick factor, today’s formulas are worlds away. Whatever your preference—liquid or solid, mineral or chemical—there’s a sunscreen that won’t add grease as it shields from harmful rays. Be sure to find one with broad spectrum coverage, which means it protects from both UVA and UVB rays.

These Are The 7 Best Clean Beauty Products To Switch To First
Regardless if you’re more of a makeup-free kind of gal or you never leave home without a full-face of makeup, one thing every woman can agree on is always remembering to apply sunscreen. However, most sunscreens are pumped with chemicals, which are major irritants for the skin. Add into the mix the potential endocrine disruptors, like fragrances and synthetics, and other toxins in standard formulas and you’ll realize how unsafe chemical-filled sunscreens actually are. Natural sunblocks filled with minerals, however, calm the skin as opposed to irritating it, and last until you wash or sweat it off.
Product we recommend: LASPA Sunscreen
This Canadian brand has a killer lineup of sunscreens that are both light and translucent and made with 100% all-natural, plant-based ingredients, minerals and essential oils. LASPA’s weightless formulas smooth easily onto skin, leaving behind no whiteness or greasy feel. The best part? This hydrating sunscreen will leave you with a smooth, matte finish.

6 BADASS WOMEN LEADING CANADA’S GREEN BEAUTY MOVEMENT – The future is female and eco-friendly
The Kit by Katherine Lalancette | April 16, 2018
The story of LASPA comes down to motherly love. It all began when Susan Mey couldn’t find a sunscreen that worked for her daughter Alison. “She suffers from allergies and skin sensitivities, so it was extremely difficult finding an effective sunscreen that wouldn’t cause a reaction and was also cosmetically pleasing,” Mey explains. She decided to take matters into her own hands and through good old trial and error, developed a natural formula that’s not only hypoallergenic but also enjoyable to use. The key is high-quality zinc. “Many mineral sunscreens are white and pasty and not very popular with women for this reason. We use a zinc that’s very fine and spreads evenly on skin.” Her products have become a hit with green beauty lovers as well as with her daughter Alison, of course. “She’s still a product screener and our model as well!” Read Full Article

10 Of The Most Underrated Beauty Products To Add Back To Your Routine
Style Democracy
Mineral sunscreens, which use a physical barrier to protect your skin against the sun as opposed to a chemical one, used to leave a pasty white film on your face (think 1980s ski instructor with his nose covered in zinc). But modern mineral sunscreens have cracked the code, and the good ones go on as invisibly as their chemical cousins and are considered more natural, too. Laspa has just launched this hypoallergenic throw-in-your beach bag stick made with zinc, titanium dioxide and 95.5% certified organic ingredients.

When it comes to beauty products, nothing trumps the skin-saving powers of a good broad-spectrum sunscreen, which protects the skin from both UVA and UVB rays. It’s certainly not the flashiest segment of your skincare routine, but it’s a high performer, delaying the appearance of wrinkles, dark spots and other signs of aging while also preventing you from developing skin cancer. With all the good it does, it should be a no brainer to wear the stuff. Except a lot of us don’t.

Three sunscreens to keep your skin safe on a sunny day

Fun in the sun is a key component of any March break getaway down south, but if you’re as fair as I am, you likely have a horror story of getting too many rays on holiday. My worst burn happened in Jamaica when I decided to lie in the scorching tropical sun for 15 minutes before applying sunscreen to “get some colour.” The lobster-red shade I became was certainly not what I had in mind.

My fave part though is that it’s a light formula that doesn’t leave an ashy cast on my darker skin tone like most other mineral sunscreens do (also at select spas and salons). Applied in the morning before breakfast, it also doubled as my day moisturizer.
