A couple of years ago, I realized that I was slathering my kids with some chemical filled goo and I had no idea what what in the ingredient list. I am sure you, too, have given hours of your life to reading labels. I already have to do it since we are a gluten-free house. If it isn’t the labels it is the hours on Google trying to dig through the ad filled reviews. I wanted a brand or company I could just trust. Honestly, I just wanted to be able to spend more time on life and less time reading labels. Sunscreen was the reason I found BeautyCounter. Now, I have a whole line of products that I never have to worry about again. The images in this post are what we are using.
Why is it safer?
- No chemical SPF filters
- Uses non-nano zinc oxide
- No Octinoxate or Oxybenzone
- Non-aerosol mist
On top of formulating great products, BeautyCounter has also been instrumental in helping Hawaii pass legislation restricting environmentally damaging ingredients in sunscreen ultimately protecting marine life and coral reefs. You can check out this Allure article for more info…
There are also a couple of options for your face. There is a CounterSun Daily Sheer
Defense for Face or a Dew Skin Tinted Moisturizer with SPF. Last year, I spent most of my summer at the farm so I just went for the Daily Sheer Defense, but the Dew Skin is another great option that received the 2020 Byrdie Eco Beauty Award.
