Yes – with Eau Thermale Avène’s range of suncare products you can do both!

WITH the sunny season approaching we’re starting to plan our summer holidays – and sunscreen should be an essential item on every family’s packing list.

Good-quality suncare with broadspectrum protection can keep you and your family protected against the harmful effects of the South African sun.

But as you dive into the waves, spare a thought for the potential impact the suncare products you use can have on the oceans and marine life.

Many ingredients found in sunscreens and certain sun filters aren’t biodegradable and can harm marine organisms that can’t easily digest them.

With this in mind Europe’s No 1 suncare brand, Eau Thermale Avène, has introduced a range of suncare product that offers optimal sun protection while minimising environmental impact.

It’s part of a project called Skin Protect, Ocean Respect. HOW DOES AVÈNE DO IT? It’s all in the formulation. Avène products contain a minimal number of filters yet offer highly efficient and well-tolerated sun protection for even those with sensitive skin. AVÈNE PRODUCTS OFFER . . . High tolerance rates, even for sensitive skin The highest broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection available Prolonged protection against free radicals Photostability (the products’ ability to resist degradation due to sunlight) is optimised to ensure long-lasting protection. HOW DO THEY BENEFIT THE OCEAN? Avène suncare products have a minimal impact on the environment and specifically marine life. Their biodegradability formula has been improved. They don’t contain water-soluble sun filters so marine life can’t ingest these harmful compounds.
