In todays age of heightened awareness regarding the damaging effects of the sun, no line is complete without a protective product. It's more important than ever that everyone use a protective product during the day and the natural market is no exception. This has been a challenge in the natural market where the use of synthetic sun blocks and sun screens are frowned upon.
