The days are getting longer, the sun is definitely getting hotter. The evidence that summer is approaching is everywhere in nature. Floridian heat is no joke and I know in many parts of the country this is the case as well.

My sweet lil men weren't as fortunate as I am to be blessed with beautiful dark caramel complexion. Therefore, when it comes to sun protection I have take additional measures if they must must be in the sun for any length of time. Having said this, all skin tones need to take some degree of precaution when dealing with the sun.

Finding the right sun care protection can be a daunting task. Which brand is most effective? Which brand provides the longest amount of protection? Which brand is best for using in the water? Which brand is better for heavy sweating? Which brand is better for families? Which brand is better for babies & children? Which brand is safer? Which is less toxic? Which brand is made from ingredients that are healthier for our bodies and also healthier on the environment? So many questions.

When I was approached by Vivesana to review their brand new sunscreen, the timing couldn't have been better. I have tried other organic sun care and wasn't completely satisfied with the results so was a bit critical when it came to reviewing Vivesana's sunscreen.

I'll have to say there are a lot of reasons to be pleased with the quality of their products.

Vivesana products are 100% natural. Check out these details about their products:

• Moisturizing and repairing active sunscreens with a potent synthetic-free SPF, UVA protection, water resistance, which also absorb fast and clear.
• Certified organic moisturizers that rely on the best organic botanicals to leave skin astonishingly soft, healthy and moist... and not a bit greasy.
• Products that stay stable on the shelf without worrisome synthetics (parabens, phthalates, BPA, petrolatum, sodium lauryl sulfate).

When Vivesana considers ingredients to use in their products 3 key questions are always kept in mind:

• Is it the safest, least irritating and allergenic ingredient for its purpose?
• Is it the single best ingredient for its purpose?
• Will it react safely with other ingredients?

Unlike other sunscreens, Vivesana sunscreen is greaseless and lasts for quite some hours before reapplication is necessary. The company is completely transparent and wants it's customers to know and appreciate every ingredient put into their products. That says a lot about the company.
