Badger - SPF 30+ Unscented Natural Sunscreen, 2.9 oz.

Badger won't even allow chemicals in the processing of their raw ingredients: In Badger's opinion, chemical processing creates "damaged goods". They use ingredients like Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Wild African Shea Butter, Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter, Organic Coconut Oil from Fiji, and exceptionally fragrant and cold pressed and steam distilled essential oils. And these are all naturally processed without the use of chemicals. This means safer, cleaner and healthier.

It also means, they work better: Your body is a miraculous self-healing eco-system. And the products you apply to your skin are absorbed. In Badger's opinion, chemicals don't get the job done in a deep and lasting way and their safety is questionable. The more natural a body care product, the more compatible and the more therapeutically effective it will be.

Badger makes extensive use of supercritical CO2 herbal extracts: Most cosmetic vitamins are synthetic single molecule derivatives. This is also the case with many of the so-called cosmetic "anti-oxidants". Whereas Badger's CO2 herbal extracts are not "derivatives" nor are they synthetic. They are the concentrated goodness of whole and wholesome botanicals. Badger is particularly fond of these. CO2 extracts have been shown to be powerful free-radical scavengers and active anti-oxidants with cell restorative properties. Badger features the use of the organic CO2 extracts of Calendula, Sea Buckthorn Berry and Rose Hip.

Badger formulates "with the intention to soothe and heal": Badger thinks about people they know and care about; then they make something that they would feel proud and grateful to give them. Then, they give it to the world.

Badger is not driven by cost: That can lead to "cutting corners". They focus on quality, and try to make fabulous healing products through thoughtful formulation and the use of simple, natural ingredients. Many of the botanicals they use are unbelievably expensive. Rose Otto, for instance, runs about $5000 per liter. Organic Madagascar Vanilla Extract is $4000 per liter. Yet by virtue of fragrance, purity and therapeutic effect, they are well worth it. If you were to compare ingredients line-by-line, Badger products equal or exceed, in quality and purity, ingredients found in the top 1% of the world's finest natural body care lines.

Badger on animal testing: Badger loves animals so they do not test their products on animals.

Further benefits of Badger's products: Their products are bio-degradable and completely free of GMO's, parabins, fragrance oils, chemically processed "derivatives" or any other dubious stuff that you definitely don't want to put on your skin.

Badger's pride on quality and authenticity of their pure essential oils: Many are certified organic. All are ecologically processed, either by steam distillation or in the case of the citrus family, by cold pressing. Many essential oils exhibit anti-bacterial, anti-viral and immune enhancing characteristics, so this stuff is really good for you.
