What active ingredients do Green People use as UV filters in sun-screens?
Green People use two different sun-screens in our sun lotions. The first is Titanium dioxide, a naturally occurring white mineral that acts as a reflective barrier to UVA radiation. Widely recognised as being non-toxic and inert, this is one of the sun-screen agents approved under European legislation. The second ingredient is an extract from cinnamon leaf with the proper name of Isoamyl P-methoxycinnamate. This is effective against UVB radiation and is also on the approved European list. By using these two ingredients we are able to offer effective, natural protection against both UVA and UVB radiation.
