Zinc oxide is a very powerful natural mineral which has been used for a variety of skin benefits for hundreds of years. The first mention of zinc oxide for its use on skin and wounds is thought to be in 500BC, in the Charaka Samhita, an ancient Indian medical text. Zinc oxide has continued to be used in modern times for a variety of purposes on the skin. It is often used to reduce skin irritation, skin damage from burns or scars, as well as skin barrier protection and moisture retention. Another common use of Zinc Oxide is as a powerful natural mineral sunscreen agent.

As a sunscreen ingredient, Zinc Oxide is thought to act as a shield-like barrier on top of your skin. It scatters, reflects, and absorbs harmful UVA and UVB rays. In our Surya SPF-35, we take advantage of the many properties of Zinc Oxide to create a well-rounded skincare and skin health product that provides Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB protection from the Sun.

Vitamin F

                Not a vitamin in the traditional sense of the word, Vitamin F is just a term for the combination of two essential two fatty acids. Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) and Linoleic Acids (LA) are two fatty acids that can help give you plump, glowing, healthy-looking skin. The term ‘Vitamin F’ is more like an abbreviation that stands for ‘fats.’ Both of these essential fatty acids are considered polyunsaturated fatty acids, with ALA belonging to the family of Omega-3 while LA is an Omega-6 EFA. Vitamin F helps our skin retain moisture, strengthen its natural barrier function, and reduce inflammation, similar to ceramides.

                Vitamin F functions to help restore and protect the skin lipid barrier. This helps our skin serve it’s purpose to keep out pathogens, bacteria, and UV rays. Topical Vitamin F application can also improve rosacea and eczema, which are often worsened when the skin barrier is compromised. Vitamin F also helps to lock in moisture on the skin and reduce TEWL (trans-epidermal water loss). In sum, Vitamin F will give your skin a healthy, natural glow!

Turmeric/Curcuminoids

Also known by one of its active compounds (curcumin or curcuminoids), Turmeric has been a part of skincare regimens for many years. Many people believe it has healing properties, while others prefer the golden ingredient for its cosmetic and beauty benefits. Curcuminoids have potent anti-inflammatory properties, helping soothe skin, especially in painful conditions like eczema or psoriasis. The other benefits of turmeric for the skin include brighten skin tone and reduce dark spots.

Shea Butter

                Shea butter is derived from African shea nuts and is rich in fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins (Vitamins A, D, E). Shea butter also contains five fatty acids and natural phytosterols. Shea butter is excellent to hydrate and calm the skin, and can also help to fade scars.
