Benefits of Organic Sunscreen Products to Block UV Rays
As thousands of people each year are diagnosed with skin cancer, we're discovering the importance of protecting our skin from the sun. Sun block and sun screen products are available everywhere and we constantly hear about the importance of wearing these products at all times. But what if we don't want to use sun blocks or sun screens? Are there other, more natural options out there?
Some sunlight is actually important. Sunlight helps promote skin growth, hormone production and can improve our emotional well-being. Of course, sunlight is also linked to skin cancer, so moderation is the key with any sun exposure.
•Shea butter actually contains a chemical that does provide some sun protection, about a 6 SPF. This is a common ingredient in skin care products. •Jojoba oil is a very common ingredient in natural sun protection products. It's a natural sebum (our body's own lubricant for skin and hair) and is a natural lubricant with protective properties for the skin.
