Active Zinc SPF30

Back 2 Nature's Active Zinc is a non-nano zinc based sun shield. The combination of natural minerals, oils & waxes nourish & protect your skin whilst exposed to the sun & effectively reflect out harmful UVA & UVB rays. Active Zinc has a high sun protection factor of SPF 30. SPF 30 protects your skin for 97% of UVB rays. (SPF 50 is 98%). If your skin type takes 10 minute to burn, SPF 30 provides you with 30 times the protection of no sunscreen. That means 30 times longer before you start to burn, so in this case 300 minutes, provided that you have a generous visible layer applied to your skin.

Active Zinc as a (non-nano) mineral sunscreen acts as an actual physical barrier that works immediately, blocking both UVA (sun rays that lead to premature aging & wrinkles) & UVB (rays that cause sunburn). Chemical sunscreens use ingredients like oxybenzone or octinoxate that absorb UV rays & break them down before they reach the skin, but need 20 or 30 minutes to bind to skin to be effective. These chemicals can also be found in the blood stream within 30 min.

We're not sure if you've noticed, but there are a great many different products on sale today.

That means each of 'em will need their own witty blurb, and well, that's really way more than we'd like to write.

So we're doing what any motivated slacker (talk about paradoxes) would've done and figuring out the easiest route to keeping everyone happy.

We're effectively combining the excitement of writing words with just sitting here.

Is it working?

We'll take that as a yes.
