Winter is coming to North America and Europe. And soon it will be summer in Australia and New Zealand. In either instance, people with rosacea or sensitive skin should be protecting themselves from exposure to the sun and to environmental insults like cold and wind. A sunscreen is all-important, and the new Rosacea Care Sunscreen “30” is the most modern and scientifically-proven sunscreen in the world.

To maintain an SPF rating in actual use, a sunscreen should be applied more often and more liberally than most people do. To encourage this level of usage, Rosacea Care is offering its Sunscreen "30" in a generous 6 ounce (177 g) size. Effective in mid-July of this year, Sunscreen "30" is also available in a convenient 4 ounce (118 g) tube.
 

SUNSCREEN "30" - The ultimate sunscreen for rosacea and sensitive skin.

Sunscreen "30" 6 oz

Sunscreen "30" 4 oz

With the introduction of Sunscreen "30", Rosacea Care is proud to be the first international company to offer to the world of rosacea the extraordinary benefits of ZinClear™, the most advanced form of Zinc Oxide and the primary ingredient in our new Sunscreen "30".

Developed by research scientists in Western Australia, ZinClear provides remarkable protection against the ultraviolet rays of the sun, and in conjunction with the other ingredients in Sunscreen "30" provides a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of 30, the recommended level of protection for people with rosacea or sensitive skin. Sunscreen "30" has been tested and approved by the FDA.

We are always interested in responding to requests from our customers, and so we have released our popular Sunscreen “30” in a convenient, easy-to-carry 4 ounce (118 g) tube in addition to our regular 6 oz. (177 g) tottle. While users appreciate the economy of having the larger container, they have also asked for a smaller packaging that could fit easily into a handbag or pocketbook.

Zinc Oxide has long been used as a primary topical agent in protecting against skin damage from the UVA and UVB rays of the sun. It is safe and non-irritating. But it has always had the disadvantage of covering the skin in whiteness. Now in Sunscreen "30" that problem has been solved.

Skin whitening is caused by visible light scatter, which is a function of particle size. The bigger the particle the greater the scatter and skin whitening. The nanotechnology of ZinClear creates zinc oxide particles so small as to be invisible - smaller in fact than the wavelength of light. These tiny particles in ZinClear protect the skin but do not scatter the light and thus leave no white marks on the skin.

But Sunscreen "30" is more than just a sunblock. It also contains Willowherb Extract and other antioxidants to protect against free radicals and active oxygen species in a formula that not only feels good to your skin but will also keep it healthy. The elegant base includes jojoba oil, wheat germ oil and squalane to provide a perfect degree of moisturization. A doctor at the Mayo Clinic who tried the product said: "It is an excellent sunblock that does a great job as a sunblock but feels like a moisturizer. It is lovely!"

As a general rule, apply Sunscreen "30" once or twice daily and repeat when necessary. But when in open sun, at the beach, skiing or cycling, apply frequently and cover all exposed areas of the body. Since this has been designed as a non-waterproof product, please be sure to reapply after going into the water. Sunscreen "30" is ideal for children.

One extra word of advice: A cloudy day – think UVA. Don’t neglect your Sunscreen when the sky is overcast, because up to 80% of UVA rays can pass through clouds, fog and haze.
