WHY IS SUN PROTECTION IMPORTANT?

Wearing a facial SPF every day is the key to healthy (and healthy-looking) skin. A good sunscreen blocks the harmful effects of the sun’s UVA and UVB rays, which wreak havoc on the health of our skin and its cells, leading to decreased collagen and elasticity, fine lines, pigmentation (and an increased risk of skin cancer if an SPF is not used).

DO I NEED TO WEAR SUNSCREE YEAR-ROUND?

80-90% of external skin ageing (wrinkles, dullness, sagging, pigmentation and brown spots, red veins and more) is caused by exposure to UV rays.

Living in New Zealand, we are actually exposed to 40% higher UV radiation than similar latitudes in North America, which is why there is such a high incidence of skin cancer here (skin cancer is the most common cancer affecting New Zealanders). Studies show that wrinkles and sagging can appear 20 years earlier in women in the Southern Hemisphere compared to our Northern Hemisphere sisters!

The best skincare you can purchase and use daily is a sunscreen.

We all need to be wearing sunscreen every day. Even on cloudy days, and even when we are inside.

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A CHEMICAL AND MINERAL SUNSCREEN? 

Chemical sunscreens act like a sponge, absorbing UV light, whereas mineral sunscreens act more like a shield and deflect the sun's rays (mineral sunscreens are sometimes referred to as physical sunscreens).

Chemical sunscreens can be detected in the bloodstream just 2 hours after application, and many of the ingredients used are harmful to our coral reefs.

For those reasons we always prefer a mineral option. But mineral sunscreens have traditionally been very greasy, quick to clog pores, and prone to imparting a white cast (or a grey hue over darker skin tones).

RAAIE's Sun Milk Drops employ revolutionary new technology to make an ultra lightweight mineral sunscreen with no white cast.
