Sunny days: we love them, but what about protecting our skin from the harmful UV rays?
Today we are writing about our favorite sunscreen products because although we are almost at the end of Summer in the Northern Hemisphere, in the Southern one, Summer is just around the corner and in some other parts of the world like Dubai or South East Asia or Central America is Summer all year round.
These are our favorites not only because they shield our skin from the sun but also protect it from the chemicals that we find in the most popular brands of sunscreen lotions.

ALL GREAT BRANDS HAVE A GREAT STORY
Hot & sunny in Phu Quoc - Vietnam We said that before, and we love brands that have a story, especially when the story is really personal.
Not long ago, we covered the story of Taiwan based brand O'Right where its CEO Steven Ko told us how his personal experiences affected the birth and development of the brand and products that were not harmful to us or the Earth and some of today's sunscreen products come from brands that were also affected by life changing events.

SUNTEGRITY SKINCARE
Check out Tricia and Suntegrity Skincare story covered by TV Network ABC.
Suntegrity Skincare products don't contain harmful chemicals. More in detail, 3 points that make the product stand out are:
- The active ingredient is 20% zinc oxide which absorbs UV wavelengths more than the popularly used Titanium Dioxide, thus providing better protection. In addition Titanium Dioxide and you should avoid products that contain it because it's a toxic heavy metal that creates more free radicals that oxidate the skin cells and contribute to skin aging.
- It can be used on babies aged 6 months +. Uncoated zinc oxide is very therapeutic to the skin and is the main ingredient used in Calamine lotion and baby diaper rash creams.
- Suntegrity Sunscreen products are not tested on animals and are vegan.

Our editor tried the Josh Rosebrook Nutrient Day Cream earlier this year and this is what she said: "I instantly loved it! As I'm travelling the last thing I want to do is stuff my face with make up so I have hardly been wearing any, but something I religiously use is a moisturizer This is perfect as a primer to moisturize the face and provide a sun protection factor of 30" and if you don't wear make up as I am at the moment, it still leaves your face radiant and it absorbs easily without leaving a oily texture".
The Josh Rosebrook skin products focus on the following 3 points:
