new age suncare

introducing revolutionary plant uv 

The brilliant folks at Coola have been tucked away in the lab creating the newest formulation in sunscreen yet. Coola has harnessed the power of mother nature with their patented Plant Protection Technology. 

This innovative product contains plant stem cells, which help protect against broad spectrum UV rays; and Zinc Oxide, which is widely considered the most inert and safest sunscreen active.  

The inside scoop. With the naturally protective plant cells of the Buddleja Davidii stems and the Lilac Leaf, which have been shown to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, this formula is preservative-free and made with 70% organic inactive ingredients. You'll find Beet Root and Cordyceps Mushroom Extracts that help protect the skin and defend against premature aging, while organic Cucumber Extract helps soothe skin in or after the sun. 

Also infused with organic emollients like Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, antioxidant-rich Olive Oil and  Omagea-3 enriched Linseed Oil to moisturize, smooth and soften skin. And Orazanol and organic Beeswax to boost natural sun protection. 

These face and body formulas are the perfect way to stay green with your sunscreen!

Natural. Plant. Protection.

smart summer

Is your skin ready for summer? Making a few adjustments is key to breezing beautifully through the heat, humidity and sun. Of course you are using SPF for your face daily, correct? And on your body too, right? Also, remember to stay hydrated inside and out by drinking plenty of water. These daily do’s will help keep you looking “cool” despite rising temps.

use spf daily even when not at the beach or pool

After a bath or shower, slather on a body lotion, with SPF, to exposed areas (hands, arms, chest, etc.) to protect and moisturize. Two to try: Coola’s Mineral Body Unscented (limited edition) or Coola’s new Plant UV Collection (coming soon). And a favorite for the face, Coola’s new Matte Tint, SPF 30.

make makeup simple 

Go for creamier formulas with your foundation (Atmosphere Luminous Foundation) and blush (Aura Multi-use Blush). They are really durable and easy to blend, and when formulated with skin-loving organic ingredients (like those in Vapour Organic Beauty), an uncompromising bonus for your skin.
