Soléo in the Galapagos





The Galapagos Islands are considered one of the few wonders of the world and rightfully so. My husband and I headed down to Ecuador with this in mind. We wanted to see the islands before they were lost to tourism and agriculture. The good news is this isn’t the case. The people of Ecuador are preserving this wholesome environment. We took Soleo Sunscreen to help do our part. I felt good putting Soleo on before I went for a swim or snorkeled around one of the many coral reefs. When it rained, I knew I wouldn’t be washing toxins into the soil around the many endemic species. I have to admit, I was a little worried about taking two small bottles of “organic” sunscreen to protect us against the intense sunshine of the Galapagos. Not only was Soleo concentrated enough to last my husband and I for the entire eleven days, but we were well protected. I even used less the last few days I was there so that people back in our home state of Montana knew I had been somewhere warm. After using Soleo in the Galapagos, I want to use it while I work as a whitewater raft guide on the rivers here in Montana. Soleo is helping to protect abroad, here in the States and now in my own home town.

Gracias Soleo!
