Is MelanSol safe for the environment?
A. Yes. MelanSol sunscreens are safe because they are biodegradable and CONTAIN NO HORMONE-ACTIVE UV-Filters OR CHEMICALS that can break down under exposure to the UV rays and pollute the lakes, rivers and oceans. Chemical UV filters behave, in most cases, like strong estrogen and have demonstrated hormone activity in lab tests.
