Ultimately I decided that we had over-formulated the original Pre-Sun product. I preach a message of simplicity, of supporting our body while it does the majority of the work. And so I decided to remove the isolated vitamins C and E, leaving methylene blue as the only "special" ingredient.
**This is not sunscreen**
The secret's out. We actually need the sun.
It provides vitamin D, balances hormones, regulates mood, and tunes our biological rhythms.
Conventional, fear-based sunscreens block these homeostatic effects and disconnect us from the sun.
Fatskn Quantum Blue is designed to rekindle this ancestral bond and restore your skin.
A bioenergetic blend of nourishing saturated fats and revitalizing MB helps your skin to:
- safely absorb UVA and UVB rays (better than oxybenzone)
- actively repair cellular damage
- strengthen natural defenses against oxidative stress
- diminish and reverse physical signs of aging (yes, you read that right)
- reduce inflammation and redness
- increase cell regeneration and fullness
- hydrate and soften
- boost collagen synthesis
The ultimate pairing (sun + MB) for healthy, glowy, sun-soaked skin— all summer long.
- Organic unrefined jojoba oil (learn more)
- Grassfed and grassfinished suet tallow (learn more)
- Filtered yellow Alberta beeswax
- MB (USP grade) - a tincture with alcohol and purified water (learn more)
- Vanilla oleoresin
Shake and pump onto freshly exfoliated skin and blend before heading into the sun or using your red-light therapy device to enhance metabolic benefits and protect against oxidation. Can also be applied after a day outside to minimize damage and encourage skin cell recovery.
Quantum Blue is not meant to replace sunscreen. It's meant to change the way you interact with the sun.
Instead of a sunblock which inhibits the benefits of the sun — it's a tool to help you optimize your time in the sun.
Forget the false sense of security you get with sunscreen. Let your body be the gauge.
How to practice mindful sun exposure without sunscreen:
- nourish skin with antioxidant-rich saturated fats
- limit PUFAs in your food and skincare
- consume whole foods high in antioxidants
- build tolerance with morning and evening light
- prioritize shade breaks in midday sun
