What does 'reef-safe' really mean? Here's the lowdown on what this term entails and what to look for in your sun protection to ensure you're doing good for yourself and the planet. 🐠
And it's true that these mineral blockers may not be as harmful to the reef directly as their chemical counterparts, which is great. However, that doesn't mean they're completely safe for marine life. The caveat? The minerals used need to be non-nano . If they aren't, these nanoparticles, specificallynanoparticles, can be ingested by marine life and potentially cause harm to many different species.
So there you have it—mineral sunscreen might be better for the environment as is, but the best option is to look for non-nano mineral SPF the next time you pick one up to ensure you're looking out for marine life. Major bonus if the product uses recycled plastic or sustainable packaging in general. Unfortunately, it is possible for companies to claim that a product is reef-safe when it actually isn't.
