Last year the FDA set new regulations on sunscreen safety.\u00a0 Rather than looking only at UVB protection, they focused on broad spectrum protection.<\/p>\n

Broad spectrum sunscreens protect against both UVA and UVB rays.\u00a0 What the difference?\u00a0 UVB rays cause sunburn, UVA rays penetrate to deeper layers of skin and are responsible for longer term damage, like premature aging and skin cancer.<\/p>\n

So, it is a good thing that FDA stepped up to the plate and set higher guidelines for sunscreens.\u00a0 This also meant that many sunscreens on the market no longer met broad spectrum requirements.<\/p>\n

With summer fast approaching, how do we know which sunscreens to choose?<\/h3>\n

A few weeks ago Love True Natural sent me some samples of True Natural Sunscreens <\/a>to try.\u00a0 Last year True Natural made the EWG Skin Deep Sunscreens of 2012 <\/a>list as top rated sunscreens, and these new sunscreens meet the UVA requirements.\u00a0 They are all natural, nontoxic mineral sun protection that you are going to love.<\/p>\n

How do I know?\u00a0 I\u2019ve used them, on myself and my kids, and they don\u2019t have any of the negatives of most mineral sunscreens.\u00a0 Sure, mineral is safer and provides better protection than chemical sunscreen.\u00a0 We all know that by now.\u00a0 The catch is; people will not use a sunscreen if they do not like it.\u00a0\u00a0And glaring white skin and a thick greasy coating turn most people off.\u00a0 Myself included.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll be happy to know that the True Natural Sunscreens I tried are not sticky or greasy in any way.\u00a0 Plus, TN keeps the nasty whiteness to a minimum in their sunscreens with non-nano zinc oxide and titanium dioxide.\u00a0 Right on!<\/p>\n

The Specs:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Caribbean Coconut <\/a>\u2013 This sunscreen may appear just the teensiest bit white when first applied but absorbs quickly. \u00a0Read:\u00a0 you\u2019ll look awesome and your new bathing suit won\u2019t get ruined with white streaks.\u00a0 It is also very light and feels good on skin.\u00a0 The added bonus to this baby is the scent.\u00a0 Who doesn\u2019t love to smell all coconut-y at the beach or pool?\u00a0 And no fragrance has been added, just the pure scent of real coconut.\u00a0 Sweet!\u00a0 This product is gluten-free, vegan, and cruelty-free.<\/p>\n

Broad Spectrum SPF 30 for Baby & Family <\/a>\u2013 When shopping for a sunscreen that suits the entire family you have to be choosy.\u00a0 This one does the job.\u00a0 It is water resistant, gentle on sensitive skin, and does not feel sticky once applied.\u00a0 It goes on a bit white-ish but is not a problem once you rub it in.\u00a0 No slippery babies or kids, and your car won\u2019t get trashed with greasy white gunky either.\u00a0 This product is gluten- and cruelty-free.\u00a0 It is not vegan only because it contains beeswax to provide the\u00a0water resistance, just so you know.<\/p>\n
