Organic Sunscreen Bucks the Nanotechnology Trend Touting a Nanoparticle Free Product

Kabana Skin Care, manufacturer of Organic and Natural Skin Care products and Sunscreen, releases its first organic sunscreen. It is made from 8 edible-grade certified organic and natural ingredients. This unique formula includes the safest mineral sunscreen, 25% non-nanoparticle Zinc Oxide. Green Screen Organic SPF 20 Sunscreen was created in response to customer requests for a higher SPF, non-greasy, consistently creamy natural sunscreen.

Unlike other 'natural' skin care manufacturers, Kabana truly is 100% natural. Kabana uses superbly simple formulas with easily understandable ingredients and does not rely upon the green-washing techniques commonly employed by other 'natural' manufacturers. For example, many companies that only 'market natural' use organic extracts or essential oils at very low percentage levels in petroleum derived bases. Other green-washing techniques include using plant-derived base oils that have been synthetically modified, such as with the capric/caprylic triglycerides that are frequently found in many other formulas marketed as 'natural.'

The only way to tell whether or not a company truly uses natural and/or organic ingredients is by reading ingredient labels to understand each component. Erik Kreider MS MBA, a pharmaceutical scientist and Kabana's founder, chooses ingredients with this in mind and accepts them only if the following is true:

"In order for an ingredient to be deemed natural by Kabana's rigorous standards it must be directly derived from a living organism via a sustainable process and free of petrochemicals, or is a mineral that has a proven safety record for use on and in the human body, such as with our spring water and non-nanoparticle zinc oxide. Kabana's ingredients are of the highest quality, chosen specifically to ensure good health and environmental sustainability."
