Solar Love Sun Balm
 
This balm is created to bring you deep sun protection on days where you are out in the bright sun for many hours. Combining all the natural sun protection from herbs, oils and minerals within, the sun balm carries an estimated SPF of 30.
 
For daily use, I would use the ‘Bloom Serum’ with natural sun protection.
 
But on days of long exposure to the sun in the summer, I would absolutely call on this deeply protective and powerful natural sun balm for my face and areas of body you are called to protect.
 
This balm is packed with deeply protective herbs of Plantain and Pine needles and resin. 
 
Packed with natural skin healing, protection and waterproof qualities from pure local Irish virgin Beeswax, which also supports cell regeneration.
 
One of the most powerful minerals within this ‘Solar Love Sun Balm’ is non-nano Zinc Oxide.
 
Non-nano Zinc oxide is a mineral powder and is one of the safest forms of sun protectant available.  This mineral powder provides a broad spectrum of protection against both UVA and UVB rays.
 
Did you know that the vast majority of sunscreens available use some form of chemical SPF ingredients? Unfortunately, very few contain mineral SPF, and the ones that do, often include other potentially harmful chemicals which defeats the purpose of protection our skin?!
 
Many sunscreens block the body from absorbing vitamin D, and on top of that, they are loaded with chemicals. The lack of vitamin D can be more dangerous than the actual sunburn. 
 
Studies were also done and found some ingredients absorbed into and remained in the body for weeks even after just one use.
 
Tips on receiving the healing rays of the sun
Spend time outside in the morning and evening when the UV rays are not as strong.
Go outside in intervals. Start with 10 minutes at a time. 
Avoid being in direct sun during the hottest hours of the day or when the sun is directly overhead. During the summer months, this is between 12-3 pm.  
During these hours, try sitting in the shade. 
Wear hats when going out into the sun for prolonged times. 
At the end of the day, spritz nourishing herbal teas or hydrosols such as rose or lavender onto your skin, and apply a deeply healing and nourishing serum onto your face or areas that are calling for some hydration and nourishment.
 
Using ‘Solar Love’ Sun Balm:
 
Reapply every few hours, as you would with any sunscreen. This is especially important after sweating or swimming. 
Use ‘Solar Love’ on days of long exposure to the Sun. For normal day to day exposure in the sunnier months, use ‘Bloom Serum’ with natural sun protection and healing oils.
