The subject of sun safety is never far from our summer content calendar, and especially today, with the arrival of National Beach Day.
This year, in pursuit of slightly different slant on the ‘sun, sea, SPF’ angle, we were pleased to partner with mineral sunscreen brand Sett Surf Limited!
The benefits of chemical-free sunscreen have always been an area of interest for us, especially given that avoiding the likes of oxybenzone (a common chemical found in some standard suncreams) is about so much more than end user health.
There’s also an environmental component to choosing mineral-based alternatives, since this suncream chemical, in particular, has also been found to bleach and damage coral reefs.
Mindful of these lesser-known implications of mainstream SPF, it’s clear to see why raising awareness and confidence in mineral sunscreens is so important, and why we were so enthused to jump on the beach day bandwagon!
