Facts About saint solaire
Why Saint Solaire outshines the competitors
HEALTH BENEFITS
Ingredients & UV Protection:
FACT: Saint Solaire features Broad Spectrum SPF 34 with 25% Zinc Oxide, providing powerful defense against both UVA and UVB rays—including the long UVA rays that often slip through other sunscreens. Long UVA protection is essential because these rays penetrate deeper into the skin, contributing to premature aging, DNA damage, and an increased risk of skin cancer. Its nourishing proprietary formula includes jojoba esters, squalane, beeswax, turmeric, and iron oxides (for tint) to care for your skin deeply.
Did you know? Some very popular surf sunscreen brands rely on Titanium Dioxide, which offers limited protection primarily against UVB and short UVA rays but falls short in shielding the skin from harmful long UVA rays—the very rays most responsible for deep skin damage, premature aging, and increased cancer risk. Additionally, Titanium Dioxide is increasingly restricted by regulatory bodies worldwide due to safety concerns, raising questions about its long-term viability and safety in sun care products
Endocrine Safety:
FACT: Saint Solaire sunscreens have undergone toxicological evaluations and have been scientifically justified as not being endocrine disruptors and do not interfere with thyroid hormone function. Specifically, the trace amount of lavender oil used in Saint Solaire’s formula has been thoroughly evaluated and shown not to disrupt hormone function.
Did you know? Other popular sunscreen brands that make baby sunscreens contain salicylates—known to lower T4 thyroid hormone levels by a significant 30%, potentially hampering growth, metabolism, fertility, and even leading to hypothyroidism!
SIMPLE, CLEAN INGREDIENTS
FACT: Saint Solaire is proudly made in Ojai, CA, using many locally sourced ingredients—all harvested from sustainable green farms. This practice results in fewer additives and minimal residual extraction chemicals, ensuring consistent quality and a cleaner, safer product for you and your family’s skin.
FACT: Have you heard about the owners of Saint Solaire? They’re super fans of their own brand of sunscreens and skincare products! They’ve been using them for two whole decades, and they’re absolutely thrilled with them.
Here’s a few reasons why they’re so proud of their products:
• They don’t cause eye burning.
• They don’t contain preservatives.
• They’re great for soothing outdoor rashes.
• They keep bugs away.

Transparency and Effectiveness
At Saint Solaire, we’re all about being transparent about what’s in our sunscreen and elixirs. We use super-effective ingredients like turmeric and zinc oxide to regenerate, preserve, and heal the skin, as well as block a wide range of UV rays, not just the ones that burn. This means we can really protect your skin from things like age spots, wrinkles, loose skin, and even skin cancer.
We don’t mess around when it comes to UVA protection. Our sunscreen products have passed both the FDA and EU tests, and we follow strict rules set by the EU Nature Commission. You know, some sunscreens don’t do enough to protect your skin from UVA rays, and the damage can add up over time, even if you don’t notice it right away. That’s why we take quality, rigorous testing, and high standards very seriously.
