Why Buy Australian Sunscreen?
One in three Australians will be diagnosed with a skin cancer in their lifetime, so Aussies should be experts on sun protection, right? But consumers often don't give much thought to where the sunscreen they use is made.
Here are five reasons why Australian-made is better:
FACT 1: Sunscreen products with an SPF rating higher than 15 must be tested for efficacy, approved and licensed by the TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) because it is considered a medical-grade product.
FACT 2: The TGA maintain strict guidelines for sunscreen approval and licensing, including rigorous, independent testing. They must meet mandatory requirements for labelling, advertising, testing and ingredient requirements.
FACT 3: When a sunscreen is classified as a therapeutic good, they are also required to be included in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) and comply with the Australian Regulatory Guidelines for Sunscreens.
FACT 4: Australia has one of the highest standards in the world when it comes to regulating sunscreen.
FACT 5: You’re supporting local business!
Why Buy We Are Feel Good Inc. Sunscreen?
There's a reason why WholeLife had We Are Feel Good Inc. as the first pick in their list of Top Sunscreen Picks for the Australian Sun. Our formulas offer more than traditional sunscreens, as we include skin-loving active ingredients that moisturise and hydrate your skin while you wear them.
Our sunscreens are carefully formulated, making them suitable for all skin types. We've even created a sunscreen for sensitive skin that has been our #1 best seller since we launched in 2016!
Every We Are Feel Good Inc. product you purchase is Australian-made and from a proudly Australian-owned company.
Still not convinced? Here are four more reasons why We Are Feel Good Inc. products are right for you:
Water-Resistant Technology
Our water-resistant technology makes every formula ideal for those with an active lifestyle who enjoy the sunny outdoors. Most of our formulas offer up to 4 hours water resistance, making them the best sunscreens for beach days, sporting events and activities where the sun is unavoidable.
We don't make unrealistic claims about our formulas being waterproof because waterproof sunscreen doesn't exist - see our article about water resistant vs waterproof sunscreen. Instead, we work hard to ensure our products can withstand the elements, tested for efficacy to guarantee high-performance protection from harmful UV rays, including both UVA and UVB rays.
Ingredient Transparency
We Are Feel Good Inc. sunscreens prioritise ingredient transparency to empower consumers to make informed choices about their skincare products. From chemical to mineral sunscreens, we want to ensure that consumers with specific skin concerns can make informed choices in their skincare routine.
That's why we list ingredients on every product page, and have an ingredients glossary where you can learn more about what's in our sunscreens. Our sunscreens are all free from PABA, parabens, octinoxate, or oxybenzone.
SPF Efficacy
Our sunscreens meet the stringent guidelines set by the TGA and are carefully formulated to cater to all skin types while safeguarding your skin from harmful UV rays. With formulas that are all broad-spectrum SPF 50+, you can be confident you're getting the best possible protection from dangerous UV rays, both ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB), with We Are Feel Good Inc.
SPF50+ filters up to a whopping 98% of UVB radiation and is the maximum sun protection factor available in Australia as per TGA guidelines.
Application and Texture
The luxurious, ultra-light lotion texture of We Are Feel Good Inc. sunscreens enhances the application experience, making them an excellent addition to your daily skincare routine. Our formulas are all non-greasy and don't have that unpleasant sunscreen smell of other formulas.
With added emollients like aloe vera and vitamin E that help replenish moisture, soothe dryness, and enhance the skin's natural barrier function, they offer effective sun protection while leaving the skin feeling soft, smooth, and supple.
Elevating Australian Sunscreen Standards
We Are Feel Good Inc.'s products are rigorously tested to endure even the harshest climates. We use beneficial ingredients to provide not only essential sun protection but also to support long-term skin health, leaving your skin looking and feeling its best every day.
It's important to keep in mind when choosing sunscreens that the best affordable sunscreen won't necessarily offer you the best protection. The best sunscreen is one that you will actually want to wear every single day, so investing in products of a high standard is a smart move. We're truly proud of the quality of our products and think that they speak for themselves.
