MelanSol All Natural Sunscreen for 2010
There have been changes afoot for MelanSol in 2010. We have updated our SPF-10 and SPF-25, and have finally released our newest creation--MelanSol SPF-30! The SPF-30 is truly unique in that it is the only 100% natural sunscreen to meet the EU's strict new standards for UVA protection. Stated simply, the rule says that the tested UVA rating of a sunscreen must be equal to 1/3 the SPF rating.
We are proud that we have been able to offer an all natural sunscreen that meets the world standard for both UVA and UVB protection.
The SPF-30 is more water resistant than our other formulas, so it will stay on longer while you (or your children) play in the water during the hot summer months. Its also a great selection for avid sport enthusiasts who spend extended time outdoors, and very fair skin that burns easily.
Take a moment to see if this powerful formula is right for your skin type and purpose. Shoot us an email if you need to experience it before you buy. we'll send you some to try.
If you have one or more infants with fair skin and want a great baby sunscreen, don't take chances. The SPF-30 formula is what you need.

Vitiligo and MelanSol All Natural Sunscreen
With the death of Michael Jackson, stories abound about the many different aspects of his life. One story line has centered around his skin condition called vitiligo. Its suspected that Michael created his famous glove as a way to hide the vitiligo on his hand. In a recent interview Deepak Chopra, one of Michael's close friends, said Michael's vitiligo might have been triggered as a result of his childhood abuse. What we know for sure is that many people have to deal with this skin disorder everyday and any light that shines on it should be used to heighten awareness so more of an effort is made to find a cure.

Sunscreen and Dark Skin
During my media tour, I appeared as a sunscreen expert on Good Day Sacramento, in Sacramento, CA. Courtney Dempsey, the host who was African American, asked me what kind of sunscreen people of color should wear. As a person of color, what you want to remember is that darker skin tones have a higher capacity for filtering UV rays. Very dark skin tones can filter as much as 99% of UV rays. If this is the case, using sunscreen is pointless. Giving your skin nourishment and potent topical antioxidants like those used in MelanSol 100% Natural Antioxidant Moisturizer, can make a big difference.

Another Extreme Test for MelanSol All Natural Sunscreen
http://www.PureSunscreen - October of 2008, a team of eight European high-altitude mountaineers attempted a climb of Mt. Satopanth, in the Himalayas of northern India. Here is an update on the effectiveness of MelanSol during their climb. Hansruedi Wirth, a daily MelanSol user, is responsible for its being chosen to protect the groups skin for the second time, during a climb of this magnitude.
I have had a telephone conversation with Hansruedi over the weekend. The team went up to an altitude of 6,300 meters or 20,669 feet of the Satopanth. They could not go further due too much snow.
Regarding the MelanSol Hanruedi repeated what he told us two years ago, during his climb of Annapurna IV, in the Himalayas of Nepal:
- All the participants love the smell of the lotion
- Those members with light skin report: At an altitude of 6000 meters, their skin turned into a light shade of red that was gone the next morning.
- Hansruedi's skin accepted the lotion well: No red skin at all during this climb.
- The biological composition of MelanSol, with its all natural ingredients, was very well received (they liked it a lot)
- The members found the package size (our 2 ounce bottle) very convenient.

There is no way we can get you to understand how well MelanSol can protect your skin. You simply have to try it, under whatever conditions you see fit (skiing, surfing, walking, playing...). We hope this extreme example of its use helps you see what it can do. Hansreudi told us that no other sunscreen has prevented his skin from blistering, burning and peeling above 19,000 ft elevation, so helping your skin should be a snap down here with the rest of us.

MelanSol 100% natural sunscreen lotion is good for the planet
http://www.PureSunscreen.com In the past six months, there have been two significant reports outlining the damage that is being done to the worlds sensitive coral reef ecosystems.
The first report by an Italian University reported that 4000 to 6000 metric tons of chemical sunscreen ingredients are being deposited into the world oceans each year and certain chemical UV filters used in the most popular sunscreen are bleaching coral in as little at four days.
The second report by Reef Relief http://www.reefrelief.org/, said half of coral reefs are in danger of becoming extinct. This information is alarming, to say the least. These ecosystems are home to some of the worlds most diverse wildlife.
What can you do about it? Be aware of how the products you use affect the environment around you. Some sunscreen chemicals (like oxybenzone), after being washed off in the sink or shower, have the ability to survive the sewage treatment process and harm rivers, lakes, oceans and wetlands.
When you go to swimming in the outdoors, wear a chemical free sunscreen with ingredients that are environmentally friendly. Be a conscious consumer, wear MelanSol everyday. Its biodegradable ingredients protect you and the world we all share.
