Skin of color needs protection from the sunβs damaging rays, too, but most sunscreens are messy and full of chemicals, not to mention the unsightly white residue they leave behind. Unsun is one of only two mineral sunscreens created specifically for people of color, and their product speaks for itself. By adding a tint to their product Unsun has eliminated the white residue issue, and their mineral composition makes them safe to wear without threat of skin damage from chemicals. Sounds like a winning idea, right?
Founder Katonya Breaux created Unsun when she realized that the options available to women of color were almost nonexistent in the safe sunscreen market. She didnβt want to choose between the health of her skin and how she looked while wearing sunscreen, so she set out to make a change. Unsun was designed to be clean and kind, not only to the environment but to the people who used it as well. Being one of only two available products on the market is a big deal, and Unsun is gaining popularity by the day!
