I have had one significant basal skin cancer culminating in a very aggressive surgical intervention. Protection from more future episodes and using a product with non-micro bead plastic, phthalates free, and PFAST free product is vitally important. I have spent 55+ years as a lifeguard, swimmer, water polo player, and a coach. My wife is an advocate for minimizing micro plastics in the environment. Dermasport has checked all the boxes for today and future generations of skin protection. I recommend these products for my kids and especially my grandkids (whom I dearly love). I also love Hawaii and its great ocean community. The reef friendly sunscreen product is so important to our sun-loving, eco-conscience society. Plus, it stays on for long-term protection without harming the environment.

Are they going to be reef-safe?","answer":"Hi Lily, great question—none of the new sunscreens contain oxybenzone or octinoxate, two ingredients linked to coral bleaching. That said, the SPF 50 Clear Body Spray and SPF 30 Lip Balm do include avobenzone and octocrylene, which are banned in Hawaii. For reef-safe protection, your best bet is Dermasport’s SPF 50 Facial Sunscreen, SPF 30 Mineral Body Spray, or SPF 30 Daily Facial Moisturizer—all made with only non-nano zinc oxide or titanium dioxide."},{"question":"Why did Dermasport start with swimmers for their proof of concept?","answer":"Great question - We decided to launch our proof of concept with swimmers because, of all athletes, the aquatics community faces some of the toughest skin challenges due to constant exposure to the sun, wind, cold, and harsh chemicals like chlorine, bromine, and salt.
