About the Sunscreen
UVBIO is a French brand and, according to French regulations, it has to say nano on the packaging if you use mineral filters. Previously, the rule was that a mineral filter was considered a nanomaterial (and therefore with [nano] in the inci list), mainly depending on the proportion of nanoparticles in the formula. So in the past, our sunscreen products were not considered nanomaterials. The rule now is that if your product contains a mineral filter, you must put [nano] in the inci list, regardless of the proportion of nanoparticles in the formula. So now our sunscreen has to have [nano] in the inci list, but we haven't changed the formula
UVBIO products are Cosmos Organic certified. They have strict guidelines regarding nano particles:
The particle size distribution (number of particles) below 100 nm must be less than 50%
The mass distribution (weight fraction of particles) below 100 nm must be smaller than 10%
UVBIO uses particles with a size between 185 and 300 nm. At 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.
Use
Shake the sunscreen well before each use.
Before sun exposure, apply the sunscreen to the face and body.
Repeat regularly in sufficient quantities, preferably every 2 hours.
- Apply the cream 15 minutes before sun exposure
- Make sure your skin is well moisturised
- Do not apply the cream to wet skin
- Do not apply too much at once to one area, but put some small dots on an area of skin and then massage the sunburn in well. Then apply another few dots on a piece of skin and massage it in. So don't apply a lot to 1 spot and try to rub in the whole skin from there.
- If a whitish layer is still visible, massage the product into the skin very well to distribute it better.
There are hard pieces in the product, how is that possible?
If the temperature of the product is too low, for example, the sun milk can become hard. But if you put it near a heat source for a few minutes, the sun milk becomes liquid again. This is because certain plant oils, such as coconut oil, are not liquid at room temperature. Heat makes the coconut oil soften and liquefy again.
All products are good even if they contain some lumps. These are still solid bits of oil. By 'shaking before use', as indicated on the packaging, you solve the problem.
Sunscreen can leave stains on clothes or other fabrics. Use only on the skin and leave well to avoid this as much as possible.
