The Most Important Step – Sun Protection for Your Face

Australia is subjected to some of the harshest conditions on the planet; the sun is particularly strong and unrelenting. With this exposure comes an incredible risk of skin-ageing concerns, and worse. Skin cancer is the major cause of illness in Australia

With the face is constantly exposed to the sun, it is vital that a high quality sunscreen is included within the daily ritual. To protect your skin from UV damage correctly a sunscreen should be your most utilised daily skin health tool, all year round

Hunter Lab has formulated an effective, innovative and lightweight formula which protects from both UVA and UVB rays with nature’s most powerful and safe sun protector – Zinc Oxide

Previously, the majority of chemical sunscreens exposed the skin to a long list of harmful synthetic ingredients like Oxybenzone. Great at absorbing the sun’s rays, but unhealthy for our skin and for the environment. These chemicals can be absorbed into our bodies through the bloodstream and have been linked to a number of health concerns, skin allergies and sensitivities, as well as having a negative impact on our environment

Zinc Oxide has been used more recently in sun protection as an incredibly effective broad-spectrum reflective sun filter; it protects against UVA, UVB and even UVC rays. Unlike chemical sun blocking ingredients, Zinc oxide won’t release harmful free-radicals when it absorbs the UV rays. Instead it absorbs UV and releases comparably harmless infrared, which dissipates as heat

In addition to Zinc Oxide, he Hunter Lab SPF50+ Facial Sunscreen is carefully crafted with the perfect blend of natural ingredients to maximise your skin care. Vitamin E, Aloe Vera, Beeswax and Coconut Oil will feed and nourish the skin, while the Zinc Oxide will block out the damaging UV rays, making it a crucial final step in any skin health regime

Hunter Lab’s SPF50+ Facial Sunscreen is two-hour water resistant and available in an easy to use glide on stick which is best applied as the last step in your daily skin regime, the ideal primer to makeup and should be worn all year round

The lightweight, non-greasy convenient roll-on balm makes it ideal for travelling, offering smooth and easy application with a satin-matte finish, perfect for daily use and as a primer under makeup
