National Geographic Article on Sunscreen

In a recent article on National Geographic titled Swimmers' Sunscreen Killing Off Coral, the author points to four ingredients found in chemical based sunscreens that awaken dormant viruses in zooxanthellae. Zooxanthellae can provide up to 90% of a coral’s energy requirements.(1) Coral reef's are highly dependent on zooxanthellae.

Soleo Organics Sunscreen does not contain any chemicals. Our product is 100% all natural made with the finest organic materials.
