I actually don’t follow the EWG for everything because my favorite makeup Tata Harper is a bad number on EWG and it’s all pure makeup from plants but since there are metals in the Earth, it comes up in the makeup so you can’t always believe what you read. You have to really know where the product is coming from and who stands behind their brand. EWG is amazing but some of the brands that have good ratings on there, I don’t agree with because I know first-hand what’s inside of them. Just be cautious when you’re reading anything, find your own information and trust your intuition. xox

It is recommended to aim for a 2 or lower. These brands all make lower rated options. Badger comes in at 2 and under, but personally I think the badger products go on like glue and leave me feeling goopy. Maybe they have changed that with newer formulas. Staying with unscented is always is a safer bet because fragrance just adds chemicals to a product and the ingredients included in a fragrance do not have to be disclosed, it’s considered a ” trade secret”. Coola and Beautycounter are my go to sunblock brands and don’t leave my skin feeling gross or color tinged.
Here is a link to all the best rated sunblocks by EWG based on their toxicity rating.

Hi Christine, I thought about including them but I’m not a fan. I am not familiar with their products and not sure how clean they are. These are the brands I trust. Hope that helps! oxx

I noticed that your list of sunscreens doesn’t mention KISS MY FACE. I’m using their face factor 50. Do you approve of this company?
Thanks, Christine
