The Bite
45...30...15... Our SPF countdown to summer is on. But even when it's overcast, the sun still wreaks havoc on your face. Count on eco-facial moisturizers with sunscreen to count wrinkles and questionable chems out.The Benefits
- Lightening up. A lot of sunscreens are heavy and thick. Not these.
- A 2-fer-1. Moisturizers with SPF mean you have one less product to buy and apply.
- Avoiding nasty chems. Typical sunscreen chem Parsol 1789 has been linked to cancer, liver damage, and Parkinson's disease.
- Effectiveness. Mineral-based 'blocks (which use titanium dioxide or zinc to protect against UV rays) work just as well as conventional sunscreens, but with fewer toxins.
