Description
Alphanova Sunscreen for the face is chemical-free and 99% natural. The cream smells great as it is enriched with the wonderful scent of Monoi. The sunscreen provides instant protection after application and contains no oxybenzone.
With natural oils that protect against UV radiation (Aloe Vera, Jojoba, Tamanu oil). Moisturises the skin and provides broad-spectrum protection against sun-induced skin ageing. Contains no nanoparticles, Phenoxyethanol or chemical UV filters.
NOTE: Mainly if applied too much, the sunscreen can leave a white haze. The trick is to use a little, massage it in immediately, use a small amount on the next patch of skin, massage it in etc.

WHY USE A MINERAL SUNSCREEN?
Firstly, for your health and that of your children. Secondly, because they can be used in water without causing pollution. Every year, 25,000 tonnes of sunscreen are dumped into our oceans. This has a direct ecological impact on marine life. By using ALPHANOVA SUN® mineral sunscreen, you protect coral reefs, fish and shellfish...
About the Sunscreen
Alphanova's products are Cosmos Organic certified. They follow strict guidelines regarding nano particles:
The particle size distribution (number of particles) below 100 nm must be less than 50%
The mass distribution (weight particle fraction) below 100 nm must be smaller than 10%
Alphanova uses titanium particles with a size between 185 and 300 nm. With this size, the particles are far too large to penetrate the epidermis; they remain on the skin surface to fully perform their role as a screen against UV rays.
The reason it says nano on the packaging has to do with specific French regulations (it is a French brand) which have different rules than the rest of European countries. In the rest of European countries, a guideline for what constitutes nano particles is maintained between 1 - 100 nm.
In France, mineral sunscreens have been labelled [nano] since 1 January 2022.
The reason? Several measurement techniques have been validated at the European level, but the French
authorities are currently using a new measurement technique (the CBG), which measures the
aggregates to measure internal particles. This measurement technique is currently only used in France. International measurement methods allow us to:
do not write [nano] on our packaging.
KEEP IN MIND :
1 - Our formulas have not changed.
2 - French measurement techniques have evolved.
3 - Even if we write [nano], there is no skin penetration (supporting evidence with the study), so there is no risk of our sunscreens being found in the body.
