Best sunblock review: Keys Solar Rx
Thursday, 1 November 2007
Woot! I’ve finally got my hands on Keys Solar Rx SPF30+, the safest and most effective broad spectrum UVA and UVB 100% vegan sunblock with the ability to protect my face from UV radiation while using no harmful man-made chemicals, fragrances or preservatives.
And I honestly think that paying US$19.95 for the 100ml broad-spectrum sunscreen with 16 percent uncoated nano-zinc oxide is quite a steal. I mean that price for a sunblock featured on the Environmental Working Group Skin Deep Report as the safest, as well as rated the most effective non-waterproof sunblock for UVA and UVB in the Consumer Reports July issue? You may also like to know that zinc oxide is the best sunscreen ingredient according to this rating compiled by Environmental Protection Agency.
Like what I wrote earlier, what’s great about Keys Solar Rx SPF 30+ Sunblock is that it is transparent on the skin when applied because of the cosmetically clear transparent nano-zinc oxide and hence, can be worn under moisturizer and makeup beautifully without leaving any white cast.
But I realized that the all-natural formula which includes over 84% organic contents like avocado, black cumin, carrot seed oil, and shea butter is rather emollient. Thus, I only need a tiny bit of it or my face will feel too greasy and my makeup will become streaky. The sunblock also has a rather sharp scent which needs getting used to.
Still, I’m happy with my synthetic-chemical-free Keys Solar Rx SPF30+ Sunblock because the low health hazard product with high UV protection gives me total peace of mind! Completely!

hey babe, thanks for putting up places to buy mineral make-up. (=
hmm how did you purchase the solar rx the other time? i just tried the website and it claims tt there are no shipping options for my address (singapore!)
and how long did it take you when you bought it? thx!
chenyze: You’re welcome! About Solar RX, I bought it direct from keys-soap.com - use the link here. I just checked and they still have shipping to Singapore. I used vPOST the last time though cos I found the shipping rates expensive plus I had other items coming from other online shops.
