Soak up the sun?
December 1, 2008
Studies tell us that a lack of exposure to sunlight drops levels of serotonin in our brain which can lead to depression. This could be the reason we see moods drop during the winter months. Our brains must have serotonin which can come from carbohydrates or preferably natural sunlight.
SO, even on overcast days, get outside or sit by the window…just do it safely with sun protection lotions, an umbrella or shade structure or sun protective clothing.

Kiwis, Sweet Potatoes and Blueberries!
November 20, 2008
Generally speaking, brightly colored foods that are rich in antioxidant Vitamins C and E can help protect against UV damage. Think kiwis, sweet potatoes and blueberries. To boot, diets high in antioxidant vitamins are associated with hydrated skin and less wrinkling. Aim for eating two and a half cups of fruit and two cups of veggies every day!
What makes it Super?
November 20, 2008
In it’s first year on the market, Supergoop! was awarded the prestigious Gold Triangle Award for Excellence in Sun Safety from the American Academy of Dermatology
-major recognition for such a young brand.The certified organic Aloe Vera based, weightless UVA and UVB broad spectrum SPF 30 formula found in the Supergoop! lotions is made with proprietary photostable Avobezone. Critical is Supergoop!’s ratio of Avobenzone (Parsol 1789) to Octocrylene which stabilizes the UVA protection so that it does not break down when exposed to sunlight as quickly as other daily moisturizing lotions with SPF. Dermatologist tested to be Very Water Resistant, Oil and Alcohol Free, this weightless, dry-touch formula is easy to apply whether you’re hopping out of the shower or running to the beach. Safe to use, on newborns, toddlers, parents and particularly those with sensitive skin.
Supergoop! is Super-Green!
November 20, 2008
Organic lotions, composed of carbon and hydrogen, are perfect for daily use because they are easily absorbed and will not leave skin with the sticky coating or residue of an inorganic, or physical block often associated with sun protection lotions.
Supergoop!’s commitment to protecting the environment extends beyond organic ingredients -there are no artificial colors, no unnecessary chemical additives, no animal testing and no ingredients that could harm marine life. Beyond the formula, all of Supergoop!’s travel sets/zipper kits are made from biodegradable phthalate-free materials.

Is SPF 30 the Most Super?
November 20, 2008
Doctor T’s Supergoop! formulas contain the level of SPF 30 in all products across the board, nothing higher, nothing lower.
Studies have shown that a higher SPF than 30 adds significantly more active ingredients to a formula which can be harsh to the skin and could cause allergic reactions. More important than level of protection is application and reapplication. Plus, a formula designed for everyday use, Supergoop! makes your choice easy.
