SUN CARE
Clean beauty UV protection Today, the need for products that combine wellness, safety and sustainability all in one are more important than ever. Aprinnova, represented locally by Savannah Fine Chemicals, now offers mineral sunscreen dispersions for clean beauty sun care products with its new Neossance CleanScreen range of dispersions.
T
he clean beauty trend is no different when it comes to sun care. As with all personal care and cosmetic products, consumers are paying closer attention to label claims and ingredients. Consumers want sustainable sunscreen products formulated with effective ingredients – the adage ‘less is more’, is highly relevant. It’s said there is also a lot of confusion among consumers around the distinction between mineral and chemical formulas. Physical sunscreen ingredients, including the minerals titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, block and scatter UV rays before they penetrate the skin. Chemical sunscreen ingredients, like avobenzone and octisalate, absorb the UV rays before they can damage skin. 4
