On the road to the perfect sun care
Improvements to our mineral sun care
At Marie-Stella-Maris, we strive for natural care products of the highest quality, with a luxurious and fine experience of use. We are currently improving the formulation of our current suncare SPF products. Although our suncare products are completely safe and always tested by external reputable institutes, we are still not completely satisfied with the user experience.
Therefore, we are going to reformulate our suncare, in which we will increase the spreadability and reduce the chance of a light, white haze that can sometimes occur after applying zinc oxide-based mineral sunscreen.
What is a zinc oxide-based mineral sunscreen?
A zinc oxide-based mineral sunscreen is a natural product that works by forming a protective layer on the skin. We chose this because it is not only kind to the skin, but also to the life in the ocean. However, because it is a natural mineral product, it can create a slight white haze on the skin. We would like to improve this experience and we are working hard on that.
About UV filters
UV filters are often divided into two different types: mineral and chemical. What's the difference?
Mineral filters are derived from natural ingredients, such as zinc oxide, and put a layer on the skin, giving you instant protection. A non-mineral filter is made in a laboratory. These UV filters penetrate the skin after which you are protected once a chemical reaction has taken place. Therefore, it usually takes 20-30 minutes for such a UV filter to protect you.
We believe in using non-nano zinc oxide as the basis for our UV filter, and safe, effective ingredients that are both good for the skin and the environment.
Since we are in the process of reformulating our sun care, and of course we don't want to throw away our current stock, we are now offering our current sunscreens at 50% off. If you use our current sunscreens, we recommend that you shake the tube well before use to get the cream optimally balanced and minimize white haze. We want to thank you for your understanding as we work to improve our sun care products!
