How do Aubrey Organics’ sun protection products work?
The active ingredients in our sunscreens are titanium dioxide plus padimate-O – two of the 17 ingredients approved as sun-protection ingredients by the FDA. Titanium dioxide reflects and scatters UV rays, while padimate-O absorbs UV rays before they can damage your skin. Micronized ingredients are made into particles so small that they are usually measured in either microns or nanometers. The larger the particles of titanium dioxide, the more of a whitish film they leave on the skin. We use micronized titanium dioxide with an average particle size of 202 nanometers (nm), and we are very confident in the many studies and the track record of safety and effectiveness of this ingredient. (For more detail, see the “What about nanoparticles?” section below.) There are differing opinions about the safety and efficacy of FDA-approved sunscreen ingredients.
