all natural or organic facial moisturiser with spf?

I was just wondering what everyone's favourite facial moisturiser is with spf. I used to use Avalon Organics' Vitamin C Moisture Plus Lotion SPF 15, but it's really difficult to find/expensive to buy here in the UK. I'm in particular keen on finding something new without parabens and the like and ideally for sensitive skin. Anybody have any suggestions?

  • You could try Green People's Day Solution SPF 15, but at £12.99 it is a bit pricey. However they have new special offers every month on their website (greenpeople.co.uk); in the past I have had two of these moisturisers for the price of one. Also if you go through topcashback.co.uk you can get 10% cashback, plus you seem to get access to other special offers which are not available if you go to their website direct. I also highly recommend their organic fake tan (which is also on special offer at the moment!)

    LUSH does a moisturiser with sunblock (Ultralight), but while it'll be good for sensitive skin (LUSH tries to be nice like that) their moisturisers can be quite greasy, IME. Pricey again, but it lasts a good while.

    IIRC, the trouble with SPFs is finding the sunblock/SPF ingredient to use that hasn't been tested on animals - this is why Lush only has one sunblock currently. However, I've not been part of the 'natural cosmetics' community onoine for a year or two - things may have changed! If they have, I hope someone will post to this thread. I'm still biting down on my principles and grabbing cheap SPF50 from L'oreal and the like from our local Home Bargins places :(
