Safe sunscreen: for our skin and the environment

Choosing the right sunscreen that not only protects our families’ skin from harmful UV rays, but also preserves our oceans and marine life, can be confusing and overwhelming. It’s important to know that it is both effective and eco-friendly.  

Created in Australia, Soléo Organics has been protecting our planet and our reefs for the last 14 years since its creation. It is environmentally friendly in every way; from its packaging to its contents. The Soléo packaging material and container vessel are made from 100% recyclable material and the Soléo ingredients are 100% natural and biodegradable too.

With an all-natural formulated lotion using organically sourced ingredients, it is a great alternative to chemical-based sunscreens.

Suitable for the whole family, Soléo is ideal for even the most delicate of skin and for pregnant mothers too. It is water resistant and ocean and fresh water friendly. Using zinc oxide as the active ingredient provides broad spectrum, UVA/UVB protection from the harsh rays of the sun, without the use of chemical UV-absorbers, titanium dioxide or synthetic preservatives. 

The Environmental Working Group (EWG) has given Soléo Organics a number 1 rating, meaning their products contain ingredients that are of low hazard to the environment and your health. The EWG aims to bring awareness and to educate the world about the potential impact different chemicals have on human health and the environment. 

So, when you are next shopping for sunscreen for the family, check the ingredients carefully and think about the environment. The destruction of our coral reefs can be turned around if we all do our bit.
