Mineral Protection vs. Chemical Sunscreens

Unlike chemical sunscreens that absorb into your skin, zinc oxide works by creating a physical barrier that reflects and scatters UV radiation. This provides immediate protection upon application and is less likely to cause irritation or redness, making it ideal for sensitive skin and darker skin tones.

How to Use

1. Push up product from bottom of the tube

2. Apply directly to the skin, focusing on areas most exposed to sun

3. Rub in thoroughly until the white residue is minimized

4. Apply 15 minutes before sun exposure for best results

5. Reapply every hour or after swimming/sweating

6. Store below 85°F to prevent melting

The Problem With Conventional Sunscreens

Conventional sunscreens often contain chemicals that harm coral reefs and may disrupt hormones in the human body. Ingredients like oxybenzone and octinoxate have been banned in places like Hawaii because they contribute to coral bleaching and reef death.

My Earth Potions takes a different approach. Our mineral-based formula uses non-nano zinc oxide, which means the particles are large enough that they won't be absorbed by coral or marine life. Combined with natural oils that have inherent SPF properties, our sunscreen provides effective protection while respecting both your body and the oceans.

Natural vs. Chemical Sunscreen Comparison

While conventional sunscreens offer a lighter feel and no white cast, our mineral sunscreen provides broad-spectrum protection with added skin benefits and environmental considerations. The trade-off of a slightly more visible application is well worth the health and environmental advantages.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a vegan sunscreen?

Yes! Our My Earth Potions Vegan Natural Sunscreen is completely free from animal products and byproducts. Many conventional sunscreens contain animal-derived ingredients like beeswax, lanolin (from sheep's wool), or carmine (from beetles). Our formula uses plant-based alternatives like candelilla wax instead of beeswax and relies on organic botanical ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, and essential oils. Additionally, our product is cruelty-free, meaning no animal testing was conducted during development.

Does vegan sunscreen work?

Absolutely. Our vegan sunscreen offers effective broad-spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB radiation. The active ingredient, non-nano zinc oxide, creates a physical barrier on your skin that reflects and scatters harmful UV rays. This mineral-based protection works immediately upon application, unlike chemical sunscreens that need time to activate. In addition, natural ingredients like carrot seed oil and red raspberry seed oil provide complementary sun protection properties. The candelilla wax in our formula also enhances water resistance, ensuring the sunscreen stays effective during swimming or sweating.
