NUMBER 1 TOP CHOICE SUNSCREEN 2014


A Lovely Sunny Day On The Beach
 

Sun is shining. It is summer. It is warm. It is summer holiday. It is going to be a fabulous day on the beach.




Sunshine, finally sunshine and time to enjoy it. But, how about the strangers of incoming UV rays from ultraviolet light from the sun? Both UVA and UVB rays have been linked to skin cancer and a weakening of the immune system. UVB rays affect mostly the surface of the skin and are the primary cause of skinburn. However, UVA rays are even more harmful, they penetrate deep into the skin and cause more free radical damage. Our most beloved sunshine causes up to 90 % of the visible skin changes commonly attributed to aging.

Don't worry. Relax. It is summer holiday. It is sunshine. And yes, you can enjoy the day on the beach. Sunscreens protect your skin to some extend by absorbing and / or reflecting UVA and UVB rays. And yes, I am going to make it easy for you to choose the best sunscreen available for your long waited summer holiday and sunny days on the overall. I have done the work for you. You just need to trust me on this one.

What is it then the best sunscreen, sunblock, sun screen, suntan lotion, sunburn cream, sun cream or block out? "A loved child has many names" is apparently an old Swedish and Finnish saying which seems to be true in sunscreen's case. I will tell you what is in my opinion the best sunscreen for 2014 and why. Just a moment.

In general, UV strength is greatest from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. during sunny days. UVB rays are low in morning and evening, high at midday. UVB helps your skin produce vitamin D. However, it is the very same UVB that mainly causes our disliked skinburn. Wearing sunscreen blocks your body's production of vitamin D almost to zero. But yes, you should protect yourself from sun burn. Just make sure to use an approriate vitamin D supplement also on sunny days.

How about the bad UVA rays that penetrate deep into your skin and cause damage even if you do not notice it at the given time. UVA is constant during all hours of daylight and throughout the entire year. That is why most day moisturizers have a sun protection factor in them.

Best protection from the sun is to seek shade and wear clothes and hat.  I know, I promised you can enjoy the lovely sunshine on the beach on a lovely summer day. The best sunscreen protection for 2014 is in my opinion DeVita Solar Body Moisturizer SPF 30+. It comes in a generous 210 ml, 7 oz easy-to-use tube and costs only $22.01 at iHerb.

By the way, as long as I remember sunburn is possible also on cloudy days. Up to 80 % of UV rays pass through clouds. And as long as I remember snow, water and sand increase sun exposure by reflecting incoming UV rays.

But back to Number 1 Top Choice Sun Screen 2014 that is DeVita Solar Body Moisturizer SPF 30+.  It is safe and effective. It is chemical-free = physical = mineral sunscreen which means there are no safety concerns involved. You do not need to worry about potentially harmful chemicals such as dioxybenzone and oxybenzone (benzophenone-3) which are some of the most powerful free radical generators known to man and commonly used in sunscreens. DeVita Solar Body Moisturizer SPF 30+ is an all-natural, non-chemical sunscreen with safe, nontoxic ingredients.

Sunshine, summer and a lovely day on the beach and of course, you carry  DeVita Solar Body Moisturizer SPF 30+ sunscreen at your beach bag. This Number 1 Top Choice Sunscreen spreads on easily, doesn't leave you with a white seen all over your body, rather it absorbs in a few minutes after applying and leaves your skin with a satiny finish. What a lovely feeling. Luxurous, safe and fantastic sunscreen protection!

Two non-toxic ingredients that scatter both UVB and the more damaging UVA rays are titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. These two natural minerals produced through chemical processes form a physical barrier that reflects and scatters away UVA and UVB rays from your body.

DeVita Solar Body Moisturizer SPF 30+ is titanium dioxide free. The only active ingredient in this super revitalizing, softening and moisturizing sunscreen is micronized zinc oxide 19 %. Zinc oxide is considered safest and most effective sunscreen on the market. The SPF Sun Protection Factor reveals the relative amount of sunburn protection that a sunscreen can provide an average user (tested on skin types 1, 2 and 3) when correctly used. Sun protection factor (SPF) is a useful assessment of primarily UVB (290 - 320 nm) filters. The SPF-test does not adequately assess the complete photoprotective profile of sunscreens against long wavelength UVA (340 - 400 nm).


According to the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA), the protection factor against UVA should be at least one-third of the overall sun protection factor. Zinc oxide is effective both in UVB and in the UVA range. According to USFDA Monograph Sun Protection Factor Determination test  DeVita Solar Body Moisturizer SPF 30+ has a broad spectrum UVA / UVB sun protection 32. Sounds excellent. The higher the SPF, the better the protection against sunburn.

This Number 1 Top Choice Sunscreen 2014 is the most effective body moisturizer and natural sunscreen all in one.  DeVita Solar Body Moisturizer SPF 30+ is so gentle, soothing and skin friendly that it can be recommended even for sensitive skin. Furthermore, this amazing product contains a rare Sun Damage Repair System which helps diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and helps prevent signs of premature aging with skin-defending vitamins.

The safety of titanium dioxide and zinc oxide particles in the majority of sunscreens has come under scrutiny from governments and the general public. "Nano" titanium dioxide and zinc oxide formulated in topically applied sunscreens exist as aggregates of primary particles ranging from 30 - 150 nm in size. Multiple studies have shown that there is no evidence of significant penetration of titanium dioxide or zinc oxide nanosized particles beyond the stratum corneum of skin. However, studies have been done on test conditions and further studies must be done on the subject.

Micronized zinc oxide offers greater sun protection than conventional (larger) particles. These small particles do not penetrate skin. The average particle size is 240 nm. No nano technology has been used in  DeVita Solar Body Moisturizer SPF 30+. This Number 1 Top Choice Sunscreen is 100 % vegan and paraben free. It is 100 % natural, but never feels oily or greasy like many competitive natural sun protection products, rather it goes on light, like a lotion and does not clog pores. This Number 1 Top Choice Sunscreen 2014 is not tested on animals and contains no GMO's.

Could it get any better, DeVita Solar Body Moisturizer SPF 30+ and a perfect sunny day on the beach is ready to start!
