Antioxidant Sun Protection Serum (250ml)

Enjoy the sunshine using this luxurious cocoa butter based serum, infused with minerals and exquisite plant and flower oils.  This natural sunscreen protects the skin from UVA and UVB rays while supporting the production of Vitamin D in the skin.  Easily absorbed, non-whitening, non-greasy and water resistant.  (Must be re-applied). SPF 15+

The Ritual

Apply evenly over the body and face before sun exposure and re-apply after swimming and towelling.  The sun is strongest between 11am and 3pm and this is when vitamin D production is highest.  For sensitive, dehydrated and damaged skin avoid the sun at these times.

The Result

Beautifully hydrated, nourished skin that develops a natural, long-lasting tan.  This Serum optimises the absorption of vitamin D for health and vitality. 

Juliette's Top Tip: "I passionately advocate the health benefits of morning and late afternoon sunlight when using a natural sun protection serum.  Minimise your free radical damage by consuming antioxidants within an hour of sun exposure.  Green tea, cold pressed juices or organic fruits are the best choice.  Your skin's ability to withstand the sun is naturally increased by hydration and your alkalinity.  Drink water throughout sun exposure and replace lost salts".
