      Not that I've checked all sunscreens, but I don't recall any of them quoting the PA level?

      • Lord Fart Bucket on 08/12/2021 - 16:21
        +1

        Could be that AU regulation only relates to SPF and UVB/UVA?

      • Bigredkeg on 08/12/2021 - 16:38

        PA is an asian sunscreen/european thing. Zinc oxide is a mineral sunscreen and provides high UVA protection (compared to chemical sunscreens which vary depending on filter used).

      • BuckoM on 08/12/2021 - 16:58

        I thought that vitawheat was referring to when a sunscreen states SPF50+ . The + being the PA rating. I am barking up the wrong tree?

        • Bigredkeg on 08/12/2021 - 18:15

          No that just means "more than"

        • vitawheat on 09/12/2021 - 12:35

          Bigredkey is correct.

          Some sunscreens include PA+ rating on their products. The letters “PA” followed by plus signs (PA+, PA++, PA+++, and PA++++) on a label are a rating system developed in Japan to represent how much UVA protection the product offers.

          In Australia, we use the term broad-spectrum for sunscreens with both UVA and UVB filters. The UVA component is a mineral-based ingredient such as zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, which can create a white cast, depending on the formulation.

          Chemical-based sunscreen absorbs the sun rays (that's why you turn red), turn them into heat, and then release the heat through the skin. While physical/mineral-based sunscreen form a physical barrier that reflects the light rays away from the skin.

          If you are interested in Australian sunscreen recommendations, I suggest watching these videos Part 1, Part 2, Aussie sunscreen review playlist

          I have been using Korean or Japanese sunscreen for the last 5 years. Their formulations are easy to use, have no white cast, and there are skin-benefiting ingredients as well. Further, they have advanced technology in this area. I have not been burnt while using these products.

          Do you own research before buying!

      Sorry, reading through the description, it mentions cruelty free. Which i read as "we didn't shove it in the eyes of an animal". I don't read anywhere it wasn't tested on lab animals.

      Perhaps they used free-range animals?

        Only tested on humans!

        • Lord Fart Bucket on 08/12/2021 - 15:55

          How old were the test subjects? Did you test it on open wounds, eyes, etc?

          Such a joke.
          Because you havent tested your particular product on animals does not mean it hasn't been tested on animals.
          "Lets get something that been tested and proven safe, not bother with tests again and label it no cruelty"

      Doesn't actually say anywhere that it's not tested on animals - just cruelty free. That could mean anything including putting an animal down quickly that suffers a reaction.

      …just saying…

    Anyone heard of this company before? Are they legit? People just see a cheap deal and go mad, but would you want to put this on your skin. Some things you just shouldn't cheap out on

      Supplied by VeganicSKN in a TGA approved facility in Brisbane licensed to Advance ZincTek - top 3 largest manufacturers of zinc oxide powder for sunscreen in the world.

      Zinc oxide powder made in Australia for sunscreen must comply to TGA standards and be manufactured in a TGA approved facility.

      Some brands use imported Zinc Oxide. When the Zinc Oxide is imported the TGA rules around manufacturing do not apply (go figure) as it is already a finished good.

      *Chemical sunscreen use has been correlated to an increase in skin cancer rates. Most of those active ingredients are petroleum derived, zinc is naturally occuring in your body and crucial to cell vitality.

      Thank you for this valuable and highly insightful contribution to the OzBargain community.

      I’m sure I’m not the only member who feels grateful that such a gifted individual would bless us normies with your views on what is or isn’t dumb.

      It would be remiss of me if I didn’t at least attempt to point out that many folks who aspire to a Vegan lifestyle prefer not to support the use of any animal products.

      For example, most Vegans I know prefer not to wear genuine leather shoes because their production involves the gruesome act of skinning the creature which previously lived in that skin.

      TLDR: Veganism isn’t just about what you eat.
