Excessive sun exposure can have troubling consequences, such as painful sunburns to severe skin damage, leading to skin cancer. Fortunately, much of the damage to the skin caused by the sun can easily be prevented with a myriad of suncare products. But, unfortunately, not all suncare products are created equal. That’s why well-prepared sun goers choose all mineral sunscreen, like Think sunscreen.
Selected for numerous awards such as Allure Best of Beauty, Think sunscreens are made with active ingredients zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, which are the only suncare ingredients approved by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), as safe and effective.
Not All Sunscreens Are Created Equal
When consumers purchase sunscreen, they’re expecting superior sun protection. Unfortunately, according to the EWG, most chemical sunscreens on store shelves today provide insufficient sun protection and are riddled with toxic ingredients.
Sunscreen continues to be sold despite efforts from the FDA to strengthen UVA protection into law. The EWG also noted, there are also significant concerns about safety testing regarding ingredients being absorbed into the blood at levels that can cause possible harm, yet these products continue to be sold.
According to Think, most of the sunscreens sold on the market are chemical sunscreens containing highly questionable ingredients. Echoing the EWG, Think mentions that “cosmetic and chemical industries are highly unregulated.” Shockingly, “80,000 chemicals in commerce today, and only 5 have been removed from use over the last 30 years.”
Bottom line: Suncare products shouldn’t be risky at all. Sunscreen should offer safe protection. Having fun in the sun shouldn’t be a pick your poison sort of situation. With Think suncare products, you never have to choose between sun protection for your skin versus how a product may affect your overall health over time. Thinkbaby and Thinksport are safe to use and don’t hurt the environment.
A Mineral Sunscreen That Won’t Make You Look like a Friendly Ghost!
Mineral-based sunscreens are booming in popularity for their eco-friendly, reef-safe formulas and silky smooth comfort that pair effortlessly with sensitive skin. However, natural-based sunscreens with mineral blockers like zinc oxide tend to have a pesky reputation for giving all skin types a white cast or being difficult to blend in, resulting in a dreaded pasty, friendly ghost-like appearance.
But, with Thinkbaby and Thinksport sunscreens, those hard-to-rub-in mineral sunscreens are put to shame with a nourishing, lightweight, easy-to-wear, easy-to-blend formula made with nano particle-sized zinc. Although some mineral brand sunscreens may use a clear zinc formula, Think recommends consumers seek out a non-nano zinc oxide solution. Think recommends non-nano zinc oxide over clear due to insufficient data on nanoparticles’ ability to get into the bloodstream.
Finding a sunscreen that is not only good for both the planet and won’t leave a white residue on the skin can be challenging. But Think’s suncare products deliver on all fronts, safe for you, safe for our environment, and without leaving a white residue on your skin.

Unlike chemical sunscreen, where UV light is allowed into the skin and transformed into something not harmful, Think mineral sunscreens work by sitting on top of the skin and reflecting UV light away, preventing UVA & UVB rays from entering the skin.
