One Love Body Soul

A message from Erin Elizabeth Co-Founder & CEO ︎ One Love Body Soul to educate you on why we use reef safe sunscreens in Hawai’i.

"Sunscreens are an important part of your sun protection daily skin routine. The problem is many chemical sunscreen ingredients are carcinogens, hormone disruptors, nano-particles, allergens, harsh preservatives and skin irritants.  These can negatively impact people, the ocean and marine life.  By choosing a MINERAL ONLY sunscreen, it preserves what we love and you skin does not absorb toxic chemicals.  We use a non-nano zinc oxide as our only main active ingredient, which acts as a protective shield on your skin vs. a chemical sunscreen which gets absorbed into your bloodstream.  Our formula has been tested and certified by the FDA to provide full broad-spectrum UVA-UVB coverage and is 80 Min Water Resistant—it is also Maui & Hawai’i County Reef Safe Approved.  Those who live on the islands have witnessed the rapid decline in our coral gardens from the human impact of using chemical sunscreens.  

Be diligent and check your sunscreen label!  These are the harmful active ingredients your sunscreen should not contain:  Avobenzone*, Homosalate, Octinoxate*, Octocrylene*, Oxybenzone*, Octisalate, Parabens, Propyline Glycol, Synthetic Fragrance.  

* Currently banned in the State of Hawaii - https://www.capitol.hawaii.gov/sessions/session2021/bills/HB102_.HTM#:~:text=(b)%20Beginning%20January%201%2C,by%20a%20licensed%20healthcare%20provider.
