  1. Things to Keep in Mind while Choosing the Best Reef Safe Sunscreen

  2. Did you know keeping yourself sun-safe can have a deleterious effect on the marine environment? The truth behind this is that the commodities, including our skin, wash off when we enter the water, and it adds up! Unluckily, this does not spread out quickly or evenly over the entire ocean. It is expected that 90% of snorkeling/diving tourists are concentrate on 10% of the world’s reefs. This means that our most famous reefs. Such as those in our marine parks are presented to the bulk of sunscreens. WWW.ECOGREENLIVING.OM.AU If you think that you are in the clear when your Reef Safe Sunscreen Australiais labeled “reef safe,” but consider it twice. Sunscreens that are labeled “reef safe” are not proved to be harmless when they get into your underwater ecosystems.

  3. What to Look for: • Buy mineral sunscreen that is made from zinc oxide and titanium dioxide and does not contain nanoparticles – i.e., looks for those labeled ‘non-nano. • Always go with non-toxic, paraben-free, and natural sunscreen! This sunscreen may be a more costly choice but if it’s the cost of keeping this earth well. • Make sure your sunscreen is labeled as water-resistant. • Sunscreen alternatives to protect you from the sun. Wear clothing to keep your skin in and out of the water. The more limited surface area you have to utilize sunscreen is fewer chemicals entering our water ecosystems! WWW.ECOGREENLIVING.OM.AU

  4. Have to Avoid These: • Reduce the quantity of sunscreen that ends on the beach and conclusively will end up washed into the ocean. Stick with creams that you can apply directly and stay away from aerosols! • Ignore that sunscreen whose components include a large list of chemicals. • Anything including octinoxate (also known as octyl methoxycinnamate) and oxybenzone (also recognized as benzophenone-3). • Not-yet prevented but also shown to affect corals are Cinnamates and parabens negatively.

  5. You have to be sure to check both the active and inactive components! Inactive elements should be collected from natural, plant-based sources like organic sunflower oil and organic beeswax. You can buy it from the best Zero Waste Store in Australia.
