[quote=youngblackdude]Summer time is beach time, or at least poolside time. But if you want some protection form the sun’s UV rays, don’t always reach for toxic sunscreens. Instead, pack some extra virgin coconut oil along with your beach towel and umbrella.

That’s right, the same extra virgin coconut oil found in your kitchen pantry will do the trick to protect your skin – minus the toxicity from health-compromising ingredients. Coconut oil has been used as an effective sunscreen for thousands of years by indigenous, pacific islanders. Why slather toxic chemicals on your body when you can use non toxic coconut oil instead?

There are two types of UV (ultraviolet) rays from the sun: UVA and UVB. UVA rays are primarily responsible for skin damage from excessive sun exposure that can lead to cancer and skin aging. However, although UVB rays can also cause damage and sunburn, they are necessary for your body to produce its own cancer protective vitamin D via the skin.
Sunlight is by far the optimal way to produce your vitamin D. Blocking UVB rays may inadvertently be increasing your cancer risk by blocking vitamin D absorption. Plus, sunscreen causes cancer through carcinogenic ingredients.

Mango butter, no doubt is possibly the healthiest and most caring solution for the skin. It has this bursting power of fruit to it that when it comes in contact with skin, it deeply hydrates and nourishes it.

Mango butter is extracted from the shelled fruit kernel of the mango tree, which is a tropical evergreen. This butter is highly emollient, softening and soothing to the skin. Mango butter has protective effects against UV radiation and also helps treat skin rash, eczema, insect bites, and poison ivy. Mango butter can help protect and heal skin from the damage caused by sunburn and frostbite. While mango butter is excellent for skin, it is often mixed with other ingredients because it is much harder than she butter.

Mango butter can be used to soften, heal and regenerate skin tissue. It’s been used to protect and moisturize skin, keeping it more flexible for easy movement. Mango butter also has natural deflective properties against ultraviolet sunlight rays. While most-often recommended by skin care professionals to smooth fine lines and wrinkles, mango butter has other uses.

Use mango butter as a deep-skin moisturizer to help smooth wrinkles. Its regenerative properties lend themselves to use after skin exfoliation and can help repair sun-damaged skin, smooth acne scarring and fade stretch marks. It has similar properties to –
