By now everybody knows the importance of wearing sunscreen, but the choices available on the market don't always instill a lot of health or beauty confidence. That's because the majority of sun protection products are loaded with harsh chemicals like Oxybenzone. Not only do such chemicals tend to dry out the skin, but the long-term medical side effects of using them are rather frightening. So is there a reliable natural alternative, or should you plan on spending the entire summer in the shade? Thankfully, a brand new alternative has come onto the warm weather scene, and that product is Burt's Bees Chemical-Free Sunscreen.

Burt's Bees new Chemical-Free Sunscreen comes in a 3.46 ounce plastic squeeze tube with a flip-top lid and a 99.11% natural formula. Unlike the Oxybenzone-based sun protection lotions on the market, the main ingredient in this product is titanium dioxide. Titanium dioxide is a naturally-harvested mineral that sits right on the skin (rather than absorbing into it) and literally reflects the sun's rays off you like a mirror. And of course in true Burt's Bees fashion, it's paired up with a lush collection of nourishing botanicals. That means you also get a healthy blend of hemp seed oil, vegetable glycerin, vegetable fat, wheatgrass extract, ricegrass extract, stoneroot extract, glucose and sucrose (natural sugars), calendula extract, golden seal extract, witch hazel extract, comfrey extract, lecithin, orange oil, amyris oil, copaiba balsam oil, patchouli oil, sandalwood oil, and guaiacwood oil. All of these extracts and essential oils combine to deeply moisturize the skin and keep it soothed no matter how long you play or work outside. Best of all, the sunscreen is safe to reapply as often as you need it, and can be used on both children and adults without worry.
