All Natural, Chemical-Free UVA & UVB Broad Spectrum Cosmetic Sunblock
A Year-Round Skin Cancer Protection Product
Ranked the #1 sunscreen by Consumer Reports Magazine & The Environmental Working Group 2008 Sunscreen Report
Keys Soap Solar Rx Therapeutic Sunblock is designed to offer the maximum physical protection from UVA and SPF 30 for UVB burning rays without using a chemical sunscreen. We recommend reapplying at least every two hours* on the face neck and hands. Tropical and intense sun conditions require even more frequent application. UV index ratings of 8 and above for average skin can require application as much as every 15 minutes as tested using a UV meter. This is not a product for sun bathing, extreme hot weather sports or swimming.
Keys Solar Rx is featured on the Environmental Working Group Skin Deep Report as one of the safest sunscreen on the market. Key Solar Rx is featured as the most effective non-waterproof category sunblock for UVA and UVB in the Consumer Reports July issue. It is rare to find a product that is both safe to use and effective.
Keys Solar Rx carries a UVB (UV Burning) rating of < SPF 30 and a UVA (UV Aging) of four stars using the EU rating system. It is important to note that 90% of all visible skin aging comes from UVA. Be very careful of sunscreens with high SPF numbers that do not rate their UVA protection. High SPF rated chemical sunscreens will prevent burning, but often do little to provide UVA protection.
Solar Rx combines the healing soothing properties of our Luminos moisturizer and adds a 16% concentration of uncoated nano-zinc oxide to provide a physical UVA & UVB blocking to protect against UV triggered Melanoma and Skin Cancer. Our nano-zinc oxide (ZnO) is uncoated to provide healing therapies associated with zinc oxide. The uncoated zinc has also proven to be anti-bacterial and antimicrobial and can reduce redness, rosacea, age spots and melasma. Solar Rx carries a EWG Skin Deep Rating of 0 (0 to 10 scale where 0 is best).
* Solar Rx reapplication is recommended at least every two hours in normal everyday situations. We have tested UV levels at noon in Washington DC where type two (T2) skin wearing SPF 30 sun protection can begin to burn in under 15 minutes.
Please note that the EWG report lists Solar Rx as 'old formulation'. This is an error in their system. The current product and the one in the report are identical formulas in ingredients and proportions!
