The sun is life! It boosts our mood, enhances our vitality, and is absolutely essential for the synthesis of Vitamin D, which protects our body from inflammation and improves brain and muscle function. However, sun exposure requires respect and, above all, the right protection.

Before we dive into the details of sun filters, it is worth remembering that sun protection is just one part of a comprehensive summer care routine.

Learn how to prepare your body inside and out, from proper hydration and nutrition to the cleansing routine that will keep your skin healthy and glowing all summer long.


Chemical vs. Physical Filters: The Big Difference

We often find ourselves confused in front of store shelves. The most crucial choice to make is not the SPF number, but the type of filters your sunscreen contains:

-Chemical Filters penetrate deep into the skin, absorb UV radiation, and convert it into heat. Ingredients like oxybenzone have been accused of acting as endocrine disruptors, and the devastating damage they cause to coral reefs is now indisputable.
-Physical (Mineral) Filters create an invisible "shield" that reflects radiation like a mirror. They act immediately upon application and are not absorbed by your pores.

Why We Say "Yes" to Non-Nano Mineral Filters
We exclusively choose 100% Non-Nano Mineral Filters of medium size (>100nm). They are large enough not to penetrate the body and enter the bloodstream, yet carefully designed to offer even protection without leaving the notorious white cast.

Myrro's sunscreen formulas were developed in close collaboration with the Chemistry Department of the University of Crete, where all laboratory measurements and quality controls were conducted to ensure maximum safety and efficacy.

To complement the protective power of natural Zinc Oxide, we enriched our formula with potent antioxidants, designed to nourish the skin barrier while neutralizing environmental stress:

Natural Vitamin E (Tocopherol): Provides the primary line of defense against lipid peroxidation, ensuring the skin remains supple.

Organic Rosehip Oil: A powerhouse of Vitamin C and Trans-Retinoic Acid that aids in cellular repair and grants a radiant complexion.

Organic Aloe Vera: Provides deep hydration and instant relief, acting as a natural anti-inflammatory agent that "quenches" the skin's thirst and accelerates tissue regeneration during sun exposure.

Organic Avocado & Coconut Oil: Avocado soothes sun-stressed skin with essential fatty acids, while Coconut Oil provides an antimicrobial base that helps the sunscreen spread effortlessly, leaving no white residue.


Ethical and Local Production

We are as committed to protecting the environment as we are to protecting your skin:

Eco-friendly Packaging: Our tubes are made from sugarcane, manufactured in a specialized boutique factory in Northern Greece.
Freshness from Crete: Production takes place in our licensed facilities in Crete in small, fresh batches, ensuring the ultimate quality and freshness of our natural ingredients.
