Zinc Moisturizers Are Best For Sun Protection

If you are tired of putting chemicals on your face or using products to protect you from the sun, only to find out they irritate your skin, why not try a Zinc Moisturizer?

Zinc Oxide is the main ingredient in the zinc moisturizers and many all-natural sun screens. Unlike chemical versions of suncare that “block” harmful UV (UVA and UVB) rays with a layer of chemicals, Zinc Oxide actually REFLECTS harmful UV rays with microscopic crystalline formations. Since these crystalline formations are found in nature, they are much less harmful to your skin.

You might already be using a form of zinc oxide if you have a small child - it’s the exact stuff that you can find in their diaper cream to prevent diaper rash. So, you know if its safe for a baby, its safe for your face and body too!

New versions of Zinc moisturizers and creams have been formulated in recent years and hardly ever resemble that stuff you saw on the beach in the 80’s.  Unlike the white “lifeguard nose” the new blends are light and fresh, masking them easy to apply and blend in.There are even lighter version being formed today that include “micro-fine” zinc oxide compounds that show little to no white tint at all.

So, before you head out into the sun today, be sure to try a natural zinc cream or moisturizer to protect your face!  As always, remember to use natural sun protection to keep the rest of your body protected too. Protective clothing, including hats, sun glasses and long sleeves can do much to prevent your skin from developing age spots, wrinkles and even harmful skin cancers.

Always remember to wear sunscreen, even when you think you don’t need it, the suns UV rays are powerful and can penetrate even the thickest clouds.
