Plant-based sunscreen without nanoparticles and emulsifiers
Gentle UV protection with purely plant-based power – without mineral filters, nanoparticles, or emulsifiers. Sunshine Day Oil protects and strengthens your skin's natural UV protection.
Sun protection is important – no question. But many people want more than just protection from UV radiation: They want products that are natural, skin-friendly, and environmentally friendly.
With the Sunshine Day Oil line, myrto Naturkosmetik offers a clever solution for all those who consciously want to avoid chemical or mineral UV filters, nanoparticles and emulsifiers – and instead rely on the power of plants.
Why mineral sunscreen is not automatically safe
- Environmental pollution from nanoparticles: Nanoparticles accumulate in the environment and are harmful to aquatic organisms and sensitive aquatic systems such as coral reefs.
- Misleading labeling: According to EU regulations, products containing up to 49% nanoparticles are considered "nano-free." This regulation creates a false sense of safety and downplays warnings that nanoparticles can penetrate the skin and cause inflammation, organ damage, or tumors in the body, as demonstrated in animal studies in 2019.
- Vitamin D deficiency due to high sun protection: Vitamin D strengthens the immune system and protects against diseases – but high sun protection filters almost completely block the body’s own vitamin D production.
Possible consequences of deficiency:
- Low moods
- fatigue
- Dry skin
Tip: If you expose your face and hands to the sun for 15-20 minutes a day, this is often enough for the body to produce vitamin D – depending on your skin type and sun intensity.
The emulsifier problem: Invisible stress for the skin
Mineral pigments require emulsifiers to remain stable in the product. However, these have unpleasant side effects:
- Emulsifiers attack the skin's protective barrier
- Emulsifiers dry out the skin and promote irritation
- Emulsifiers increase skin permeability – which makes it easier for nanoparticles to enter the body
This is particularly critical in the following cases:
- acne
- Rosacea
- Atopic dermatitis
Conclusion: Even “natural” sun protection with mineral UV filters is neither skin-friendly nor environmentally friendly when used daily.
