⛔Health concerns about sunscreen ingredients
Chemical Filters and Health Concerns Table
Chemical sunscreen | Health concerns | Environmental concerns |
---|---|---|
Oxybenzone (Benzophenone-3) | Easily absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream; such as hormone disruptors; can cause allergic skin reactions; associated with reproductive harm, thyroid tumors in animals, and potential endocrine disruption; higher risk in children. | Harmful to marine life, including coral reefs; banned in Hawaii and many other countries. |
Octinoxate (Octyl Methoxycinnamate) | High absorption rate; endocrine disruptor, affecting hormones such as testosterone and progesterone; causes allergic reactions; associated with delayed puberty and metabolic effects in animals; genotoxicity concerns. | Harmful to marine life; banned in Hawaii and many other countries. |
Homosalate | Penetrates skin; hormone disruptor; insufficient safety data, concentrations limited in Europe (maximum 0.5-7.34%). | Although not specifically mentioned, chemical filters are generally of concern to aquatic environments. |
Octisalate (Ethylhexyl Salicylate) | Highly absorbed; associated with allergic contact dermatitis; weakly interacts with estrogen receptors. | Not specifically mentioned. |
Octocrylene | High absorption rate; often contaminated with benzophenone (carcinogen); potential hormone disruptor; endocrine effects uncertain. | Associated with ocean toxicity and coral damage. |
Avobenzone | High absorption rate; unstable, causing allergic reactions; disrupts the endocrine system, blocking testosterone; lowers hormone levels in animal studies. | Not specifically mentioned. |
Note: This table is based on data from an EWG report. Common concerns with chemical sunscreens include systemic absorption into the blood, breast milk, and urine; potential for inhalation or ingestion; and the fact that most have not received GRASE status from the FDA (only zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are GRASE). The European Commission has imposed stricter restrictions on many sunscreens due to safety uncertainties.
Q: What type of sunscreen is KYRIA THERAPY MARE GLACIER AQUA SKIN FIT SUN CREAM?
A: This is a hybrid sunscreen that combines physical and chemical UV filters to provide broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays. It offers high SPF protection and is formulated as a 4-in-1 product for sun protection, pollution prevention, brightening, and wrinkle reduction. The only physical filter is Titanium Dioxide, and the only chemical filters are Ethylhexyl Triazone, Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, and Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine.
Q: Does this sunscreen contain chemical sunscreens with known health concerns?
A: This product uses only next-generation chemical sunscreen ingredients: Ethylhexyl Triazone and Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, which are highly photostable, and Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, which is broad-spectrum, photostable, and non-estrogenic. These filters are of low concern and pose no high risk of systemic absorption or endocrine disruption (like oxybenzone). It is hypoirritant and suitable for sensitive skin, without alcohol or artificial lighteners. If in doubt, choose a fully mineral sunscreen or consult a dermatologist.
Q: Is this sunscreen suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?
A: Yes, it's designed for sensitive skin with a slightly acidic, hypoirritating formula. It contains soothing agents like marine collagen and baccutane to help calm redness and balance moisture levels. Its lightweight, non-greasy texture reduces the risk of pore clogging and is suitable for combination or acne-prone skin types. When using new products, always test them on your chin first.
Q: What are the benefits of using this sunscreen?
A: It provides comprehensive UV protection while moisturizing and soothing the skin with glacial water and hyaluronic acid. Benefits include improved moisture balance, reduced redness and heat sensation, a natural toning effect for brighter skin, and anti-aging support through collagen synthesis and wrinkle reduction. Suitable for daily use, it absorbs quickly without leaving white marks or a sticky feeling.
Q: How do I use this sunscreen?
A: Apply to clean skin as the last step of your skincare regimen, 15-30 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply every 2 hours, or after swimming/sweating. Use approximately 1/4 teaspoon for your face. Suitable for daily wear, use with other KYRIA THERAPY products to complete your regimen.
