LIVING LIBATIONS EVERYONE LOVES THE SUNSHINE WITH ZINC
You guys know Living Libations have my heart! This product is exceptional too. Ingredients are next level natural, the ethos behind the brand are exceptional and I can’t get enough of them even after years of using these products. Ever heard of a SPF product with frankincense, sandalwood, turmeric, calendula and carrot seed oil? If ingredient list like this does not make your heart sing, I don’t know what will 🙂 There are two variants of these SPF products, the oil with zinc and the beach balm that comes in three different sizes from a lip balm tube to a big tube that looks kind of like a deodorant. The latter is so handy to carry around and for travels. I never want to be without them!
INGREDIENTS: Simmondsia chinensis (Jojoba), Cocos nucifera (Virgin Coconut) Oil, Theobroma cacao (Cacao Butter), Hippophae rhamnoides (Seabuckthorn), Zinc Oxide, Rubus idaeus (Raspberry Seed), Calophyllum inophyllum (Tamanu), Schisandra chinensis (Schizandra), Myrica pubescens (Laurel Wax), Helichrysum italicum (Immortelle), Daucus carota (Carrot Seed), Rosa damascena (Rose Otto), Eriocephalus punctualatus (Cape Chamomile), Boswellia carterii (Frankincense), Santalum album (Sandalwood), Zingiber officinale (Ginger), Lavandula angustifolia (Lavender), Pelargonium graveolens (Geranium), Thyme vulgaris linalool (Sweet Thyme), Curcuma longa (Turmeric), Calendula officinalis (Calendula), and Cymbopogon martini (Palmarosa).
PS. Not only these protect me from the sun, but they also heal my dermatitis outbreaks – say what??! True story bro – just check my review below.

Living Libations Everybody Loves the Sunshine with Zinc Beach Balm Review
EVOLVE ORGANIC BEAUTY TINTED CLIMATE VEIL SPF20
Another one of my favourites and daily must haves! I too can’t get enough of this brand on the whole (search for more than 10 products reviews on my blog) and I loved this since the day it was launched. Well, maybe this was a love from a second sight, but let me clarity – the formula was/is great, but the first product launched was far too dark for me. Now that they introduced shade light, I am a happy gal. This too has a review on my blog, please feel free to check it out if You want more of my thoughts. The consistency is creamy and light, it is a dream to apply and rub in. Sinks in quickly leaving no stickiness or residue and because it is tinted, it is very easy to see where you apply. The finish is dewy but not greasy, the skin looks luminous. It is tinted, but the coverage is light. It is non drying at all, which pleases me to no end, as I find most of the face SPF products drying. It contains caprylic tryglicerides, which is coconut derivatives and sometimes break me out – but this product does not, there’s something magical about this formula. So, all in all, I must say I am very impressed with this product!
INGREDIENTS: Aqua (Water), Zinc Oxide, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Coco-Caprylate, Cetyl Ricinoeate, Polyglyceryl-2 Dipolyhydroxystearate, Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate, Glycerin*, Opuntia Ficus Indica Stem Extract*, Sodium Hyaluronate, Caryodendron Orinocense Seed Oil, Vaccinium Vitis-Idaea Fruit Extract, Crambe Abyssinica Seed Oil, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder*, Tocopherol, Sodium Chloride, Titanium Dioxide, Sodium Dehydroacetate, Sodium Benzoate, Xanthan Gum, Citric Acid, Gluconolactone, Calcium Gluconate, Mica, Sodium Anisate, Sodium Levulinate, Hydrogenated Olive Oil Stearyl Ester, CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499, Parfum (Natural fragrance). *Ingredients from Organic farming
