Solar Rx Moisturizing Cosmetic Sunblock SPF 30+, 100 ml

Solar Rx is an everyday moisturizing cosmetic sunblock for the face, neck and hands. Solar Rx is not designed to be used for going to the beach, sun bathing, sports or water activities. The moisturizing properties and cosmetically clear sunblock make it ideal for everyday use as a foundation for makeup or alone. Solar Rx was designed to offer the maximum physical protection from UVA and SPF 30 for UVB burning rays without using a chemical sunscreen. As a cosmetic UV protection, it goes on clear with no heavy oily feeling or white cast. Solar Rx can be applied once a day for under makeup with minimal direct sun exposure. For direct sun exposure, we recommend reapplying at least every two hours on the face neck and hands. Tropical and high intensity 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 the safest sunscreen on the market. Keys Solar Rx was featured as the most effective non-waterproof category sunblock for UVA and UVB in the Consumer Reports July 2007 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 is both moisturizer and sunblock. It combines the healing soothing properties of our Luminos moisturizer and adds a 18.5% concentration of uncoated nano-zinc oxide to provide a physical UVA and 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).

”As a Melanoma survivor, I developed Solar Rx to protect people with sensitive skin from UVA and UVB radiation. We use no chemical sunscreens, only pure uncoated zinc oxide in a natural lotion base. Solar Rx is for those who want to avoid the extreme aging effects of UVA and UVB on a daily basis.” Wendy Steele, Keys CEO and Founder

How To Use!

Apply enough Solar Rx to the face, neck and hands to cover the skin evenly. Rub in until it disappears, but heavy enough to feel a light thin coat. Reapply at least every two hours and more frequently in high UV Index and high humidity areas. Remember that Keys Solar Rx is not waterproof or for strenuous activity. It is an everyday cosmetic sunblock with a moisturizing lotion that is water soluble.

Warning!

Keys is a sun avoidance company. We comply with the new proposed FDA guidelines that support that sunscreens and sunblocks should be used in combination with SPF/UPF protective clothing, a UV rated big brim hat and UV protecting sunglasses. Solar Rx is for people who want to avoid damaging UV radiation for exposed skin like the face, neck and hands. We do not support using Solar Rx for sun bathing, sports, swimming or in lieu of protective clothing. Avoid any direct sun exposure from 10 AM to 4 PM especially in tropical climates where the published daily UV Index exceeds 6. When used in combination with SPF protective clothing, a UPF rated hat and UV protecting sunglasses, Solar Rx provides security for unprotected skin.

Solar Rx reapplication is recommended at least every two hours for prolonged direct sun exposure. 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. Solar Rx can be applied once a day as a foundation under makeup when the skin is not subjected to prolonged UV exposure

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!

Solar Rx is a sunblock designed for use to prevent sun damage in everyday situations. It is not waterproof, designed for heavy exercise or direct sun exposure.

Wendy’s Tips

Tip 1: 365 Anti-Aging Reality: The fact is,90% of all visible skin aging comes from UV rays. To make matters worse, UVA cuts through clouds, office windows, car windows. They are reflected by water, sand, snow and even concrete. So, if you want to minimize skin aging, wear Solar Rx everyday rain or shine.

Tip 2: Notice those brown spots and patches? They are caused by daily UVA! Solar Rx will help to fade these patches because it contains avocado oil. The zinc oxide particles in Solar Rx will help prevent their return. Also, wash with Island Rx and the patches will fade faster. Remember it does take time.

Tip 3: If you suffer from Rosacea or redness, Solar Rx can help. Many Rosacea medications contain 6% to 8% uncoated zinc oxide. The zinc oxide helps to reduce the redness in many people. Solar Rx contain 18.5% uncoated zinc oxide!
