Organic & Natural Ways to Protect you from the Sun

We all love the outdoors - nothing makes us feel more alive than having fun in the elements. Whether it be pounding through the salty surf, shooshing down powdery ski runs, or just throwing a ball with the kids in the park; if you're out in the sunshine, you need to protect your skin. We all know that getting sunburnt is not a good idea and that sunscreen is the way to prevent sunburn… but what are those chemicals in commercial sunscreens?

Commercial Sun Screens contain harmful ingredients

Latest research has begun to discover some serious problems:

Octyl-methoxycinnamate – produces free radicals (singlet molecular oxygen) known to be toxic to cells (1)

Titanium dioxide – causes DNA damage (the cells genetic material) due to superoxide radicals, active oxygen radicals and hydroxyl radicals when exposed to light (2) (3) (4)

Oxybenzone – is rapidly oxidised in the presence of light and inactivates important antioxidant systems in the skin (the skin’s natural protection system) (5)

PABA – produces free radicals in the presence of light (1)

Cinoxate – causes DNA damage (sister chromatid exchanges) (6)

Protect with MiEssence Reflect Outdoor Balm

Reflect is the natural alternative. It is a water-free nourishing balm with natural minerals that help reflect damaging ultraviolet radiation. Micro-fine zinc oxide offers protection from harmful rays whilst organic olive oil keeps the skin supple.

Potent antioxidants including natural vitamin E, beta carotene and polygonum extract, protect the skin from premature aging and prevent damage caused by the elements. What type of mineral is used in Reflect? Reflect contains Zinc Oxide which is the active mineral. Zinc Oxide has over a 300 year history of safety with no known adverse reactions (which is why it is often used to treat babies). It protects against UVB and most of the UVA spectrum and is the closest thing to a total sunblock on the market today.
