According to me Rose water with two or three Drops of Glycerine is very good Sunscreen Lotion.

there is a company called Mexitan. i have never used this but i found it on google, the Mexitan SPF 30 is water resistant. the ingredients are: titanium oxide (6%) zinc oxide (6%)
deionized water,sunflower oil, lecithin, coconut oil, glycerine, xanthan gum, green tea extract, jojoba oil, vitamins e & a, shea butter,and eucalyptus oil. (repells insects natually)
this actually sounds good but like i said i never have used it. it is on google if you want to look it up. Hope i have been of some help.

Their SPF 50 is a better product IMO. Much higher levels of zinc oxide which is a good thing. Of course it may or may not be too whitening on your skin. I dont like the oil overload in their products though.

Simply saying, the answer to your question is "No".

I've written an article titled "Do 100% Organic Skin Care Products Exist?" I hope this helps your question in details :)

100% natural... hmmm... You can make it yourself but it does not do much to solve problems or prevent problems... :sick:

For the sun care, wear a huge hat and avoid sun as much as you can!:p

I dont know of any "natural" sunscreens. But yeah.. if you are looking for non-greasy formulations you should try iS Clinical SPF 20 Powder Sunscreen. All you need to do is dab some on the face and you are ready to go!

I am using SPF15 sunscreen spray. I heared high SPF sunscreens do protect your skin better from the sun but it is adding so much stress to your skin. I am not sure if it true but my dermatologist recomemded me to re-apply lower SPF sunscreen often. It can also protect your skin well and is not so damaging to your skin!

Parabens are not used in nowadays' sunscreens.


Here is a list of harmfull sunscreen ingredients (http://www.healthhype.com/harmful-sunscreen-ingredients.html) causing acne, photosensitivity, skin ageing or even cancer.

Here you can read what is a good sunscreen (http://www.healthhype.com/sunscreens-which-one-is-good.html). Good sunscreen should not contain any irritating chemicals and should protect you against UV-A and UV-B rays. Sun protecting factor (SPF) 30 should be enough - SPF 50 does not give any considerable additional protection , so no point to spend money for this.

Here is a list of safe sunscreen ingredients (http://www.healthhype.com/supposedly-safe-sunscreen-ingredients.html) approved in US (by FDA), Europe, Australia andf Japan.

Here is a supposedly independent site with sunscreen ratings (http://www.ewg.org/whichsunscreensarebest/2009report).

On the end sunscreen has to work for you: sunscreens come in different forms (gels, milks, creams, sprays..), some sunscreens are partly "resistant" to water and sweat...
