Show Off Your Best Summer Skin: Best Ways to Protect Skin from Sun - Inside and Out!
What's in your sunscreen? Is it loaded with chemicals you can't pronounce? And what are the effects of those chemicals? We know we need to protect our skin from UV rays, but it's still important to be thoughtful about what we use to protect it. That's why NEEDS offers all-natural sunscreen lotions. Badger brand sunscreen uses zinc oxide for UV protection, in a base of organic sunflower oil, organic beeswax, vitamin E, and organic sea buckthorn. It's water resistant, unscented, and 100% organic. Aubrey offers a "kids" (of course, adults can use it too!) sunscreen spray. The spray option is a convenient way to apply sunscreen without the mess. The base is made of natural ingredients such as coconut oil, aloe extract, shea butter, and rosemary extract. Time to ditch those chemical-laden sunscreens and switch to a safe and natural solution.
There is a lot we can do to protect our skin from the inside as well. Antioxidants can help protect skin cells from damage and they can slow the time it takes for skin to redden from UV exposure. One study showed that sufficient doses of beta-carotene and vitamin E together increased the time it took for skin to redden. Lutein and lycopene are also carotenoids that show promise in slowing the rate of sunburn. Another study showed that high-dose vitamin C and vitamin E regularly reduces the risk of sunburn by 34% as compared to those taking Placebo.
