What are you doing to educate your customers about the harmful effects of chemical laden traditional sunscreens?

Most sunscreen contains oxybenzone, benzophenone, octocrylene or octyl methoxycinnamate. Four to six thousand tons of sunscreen with these chemicals enter the oceans each year and damage not only the reefs, but ham humans directly. These chemicals have been linked to increased rates of an aggressive and malignant form of skin cancer, even as it protects us from other forms. Your typical non-green sunscreen may also damage DNA. Ingredients, such as PABA, have been taken off the market after studies found it altered DNA in humans.

Many beaches around the world have banned traditional sunscreens already, and many more are considering it as evidence mounts that sunscreen causes destructive bleaching of coral, and causes viral infections in the algae that keeps the ecosystem in balance and feminizes male fish and other aquatic life.

Soothing Scents was created by Wendy Nichols, a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) to bring the therapeutic benefits of essential oils to the medical community. Her first product, the QueaseEASE Aromatic Inhaler, was designed as a fast, safe and effective remedy for post operative queasiness associated with anesthesia. The product has become very popular with travelers, boaters, moms-to-be, and patients undergoing chemotherapy.

Essential oils are complex mixtures of naturally occurring compounds that exist in some plants’ flowers, leaves, wood, bark, roots, or seeds. The active constituents of essential oils are composed of hydrocarbons which can be grouped according to their molecular structure into terpenes, esters, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, and phenols. The oils are extracted from the plants using distillation and cold-pressing, methods which insure the quality, purity and wholeness of the essential oil (EO). Even though there will always be a natural variation in essential oils, pure, correctly processed essential oils contain all the components that are important for the overall therapeutic effect.

Essential oils which have been described as helpful for the relief of nausea include Peppermint, Ginger, Spearmint. (Buckle, 2003; Battaglia, 1995; Schneubelt, 1998). The four essential oils used in QueaseEase are Peppermint (Mentha Piperita), Ginger (Zingiber Officinale), Spearmint (Mentha Spicata), and Lavender (Lavandula Angustifolia). Ginger, spearmint, and peppermint are essential oils that have documented efficacy in reducing nausea and vomiting. Lavender is added as an anxiolytic and antispasmodic, both of which contribute to perception of nausea. Although there is no evidence for effectiveness of the collective combination of these EO’s, individual studies demonstrate efficacy for both inhalant and botanical forms of the essential oils.
