Unprotected sun exposure can lead to premature skin aging and wrinkling (photoaging), and suppression of the immune system. UVB rays will usually burn the superficial layers of your skin. It plays a key role in the development of skin cancer. The intensity of UVB rays vary by season, location and time of day, with 10AM to 2PM being the peak hours. Sunburned skin doesn’t just feel awful, it can cause permanent damage over time. COOLA pushes the boundaries of sun protection through unique formulas, sustainable packaging and advanced technologies. Their Daily Protection Collection goes beyond UVA and UVB protection to help mitigate the effects of blue light, infrared and pollution.

COOLA is deeply committed to improving the health and safety of their communities, waterways, and habitats through responsible ingredient sourcing and sustainable packaging wherever possible. Over 80% of its bottles and jars are made of highly recyclable glass. Plastic is used mainly when needed for the safety and functionality of the product, in which case the brand strives to use the most eco-friendly options available. As part of its efforts to reduce plastic and its carbon footprint, all tubes are made of sustainably sourced sugar-cane resin, which is 100% recyclable. It has also taken steps to reduce its carbon footprint by transitioning to packaging that can be flat-packed. In total, over 75% of its packaging is fully recyclable.
