Why physical sunscreen?
Using a physical sunscreen (mineral sunscreen) is beneficial for both you and nature. It is a clean and natural alternative to chemical ones (also known as synthetic sunscreen) and differs in how it protects you from the sun.
The chemical blocker absorbs the sunrays in the skin and converts the dangerous UV rays to non-dangerous rays. The physical blocker works like a mirror on the skin and reflects the UV rays for them to not get absorbed by the skin.
Founder story
I have always loved spending time in the sun. Never wanting to miss a chance as soon as the sun is out. I think most Scandis can relate to the feeling of guilt when staying inside as “one should take the chance to enjoy the sun as you never know when you can enjoy it again".
Even though the sun is much fun one must also be careful. Back in 2015 my interest in natural skincare grew and sitting at the beach one day I started to read the INCI list on the back of my sunscreen bottle. The list of ingredients was long, and it appeared to be a lot of weird stuff in it. I decided to look into more natural alternatives and ended up in my kitchen making my own natural sunscreen. As I could not determine the level of SPF I finally found a natural alternative online and ordered it. What surprised me the most was that when I replaced my chemical sunscreen, with the physical one, my constant sun eczema was gone and has been ever since. It became clear that it was not sun eczema that I had been struggling with, it was the chemical sunscreen making my skin react in a negative way.
From there my passion for natural skincare grew and my own journey in the skincare industry began. From experimenting in my kitchen to finally finalizing a natural sunscreen ready to be sent to production, Sunbop was founded.
