KINeSYS Sunscreen
When I got the chance to try out the KINeSYS Performance Sunscreen, I was very curious. How could something that is good for your skin work to also protect it from the sun? Well, what better weekend to really put it to the test! The 4th of July this year brought us a 3 day weekend full of being outside working in the garden, playing in the sunshine, and generally spending most of our time outdoors.
So, how did it do? Awesome! Not a sunburn to be found. Not only did it protect my very fair skin from being burned, it also felt great to apply, and the spray was a nice way to apply it.
The company was founded in 1994 with the philosophy to be to good for your skin and the planet. KINeSYS Performance Sunscreens are the ONLY oil, alcohol, PABA, preservative and paraben free, photo-stable broad spectrum UVA/UVB sprays on the market. Not only that, they also have topical anti-oxidants to scavenge free radicals. The sprays have been dermatologist tested, and hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic. They are good for swimming, or being active, as they are water and sweat resistant.
Some other awesome facts? The company’s EarthKind(TM) philosophy uses recyclable bottles, sprayers and vegetable based inks. All KINeSYS products are produced using wind energy and all other energy use is offset by the purchase of carbon offsets, making KINeSYS Inc. carbon neutral. They are also cruelty free (which of course, being an animal lover, I was happy to hear). I loved that it was good to my skin, and good to the planet, at the same time.
