FEEDBACK: "I
am almost 53 and I wear this sunblock everyday. I have tried many
sunblocks but hated the way they felt on my skin. This is a blessing to
my skin and when I wear it, my skin glows. I have had strangers come up
to me and comment on my beautiful glowing skin."
Do Devita products contains parabens? NO never have, never will. We were one of the first companies to put out
a paraben free product line. We were pioneers of the paraben-free
concept and, in the beginning, it caused the company to grow slowly as
various distribution channels were reluctant to take the risk of not
having traditional preservative poisons in the products. We started to
realize as more information became available, that we had created a
process that would cause others to change their ways as well. We see
many companies now changing their formulas to exclude parabens, but we
have always known that parabens were not our friends! Parabens are not
the only things we do not choose to include. We are always free from
synthetic fragrances, dyes, petrochemicals, etc.
What is the difference between vegan and vegetarian? Vegetarian is a blanket term used to describe a person who does not
consume animal flesh foods – meat, poultry, fish, or seafood. It
generally implies someone who has less dietary restrictions than a
vegan. Vegetarians can consume eggs, dairy products and honey/beeswax
from the bees (insects) etc… Vegan is the strictest extreme
sub-category of vegetarians. Vegans do not consume any animal products
or by-products. Some go as far as not even consuming honey/beeswax from
bees (insects) or yeast, while some are classified as Honey-Vegans for
whom the gift of honey/beeswax is humbly accepted and appreciated for
its amazing health giving and performance properties. Still others do
not wear any clothing, or use furniture etc made from animal products.
It is a multi-sided issue to be sure, with many different passionately
held opinions. Honey-Vegan vs Non-Honey Vegan etc is an old debate, and
one that will likely continue forever with both sides claiming they are
“right”, when really it is simply a right to choose. The DeVita Skin
Care line is 100% “vegan extreme” and does not contain any animal or bee
insect by-products. Our absolute minerals color cosmetics line is
nearly 100% “vegan extreme”; except for two products – absolute LIPS and
absolute LENGTHS – which both contain small amounts of necessary
natural beeswax (preferable to the use of chemicals in synthetic
beeswax). We have chosen to label those two products as vegetarian;
however, DeVita still remains 100% animal free in both our lines.
Is Devita Gluten Free? DeVita is considered a Gluten Sensitive Safe product line, as we use
only the pure, non-synthetically extracted Vitamin E, Wheat amino acids
etc. What has to be understood is that this chemistry is very precise.
The gluten is isolated first and only the pure Vitamin E is extracted.
The vitamin and the gluten come from two different parts of the whole.
We never use whole Wheat Germ Oil in any of our formulas; we use only
the pure, non-synthetically extracted Vitamin E and everything we work
with is at the amino acid level. Because of this we are considered a
Gluten Sensitive Safe line. Of course, as with any new product,
customers should always do a patch test first to see if there is a
compatibility issue. We never expect anyone to have a problem, but
everyone’s skin is special, and although DeVita is designed to cater to
those with skin sensitivity issues, it is always best to be safe as your
skin is just like your finger prints, particular only to you.
Apply liberally on the face and neck prior to sun exposure. Our product
is a physical barrier, not a chemical barrier, but some doctors
recommend applying sun block the night before and again in the morning
to build up a reservoir of sun protection in the skin. Reapply regularly
during exposure, so Doctors recommend every 90 minutes, especially
after swimming, excessive perspiring or anytime after towel drying.
Not a nanotechnology product. Average paritcal size is 250 nm. Keep
out of eyes. Rinse with water to remove. If skin rash or irritation
occurs, discontinue use. SUN ALERT: Limiting sun exposure during peak
hours of 10 am to 4 pm, wearing protective SPFclothing, and using
sunscreens may reduce the risks of skin aging, skin cancer, and other
harmful effects of the sun. NOT a waterproof product. Reapply
regularly during exposure, so Doctors recommend every 90 minutes,
especially after swimming, excessive perspiring or anytime after towel
drying.

Information to help you understand this Devita product: Devita explains: "None of our product formulations use nanotechnology. In our solar products, we use cutting-edge, Non-Nano, uncoated, nearly transparent Micronized Zinc Oxide. It is the most advanced ZnO available. Our ZnO has an average particle size of 250 nm (nano is considered under 100 nm, the difference between Micronized and Nanosized is like the difference between a Million= micro and a Billion= nano). Test studies show that our ZnO can be used to create formulations of greater than 30 SPF and PA greater than 10. It has a critical wavelength of 380 nm, which is further evidence of its ability to perform as a broad, full spectrum sunscreen (UVA/UVB). BUT it is important to note that there are many factors that affect the formulation of sun protection products: the careful selection of the active ingredients, the product form, the type of formulation used, and the constituents of that formulation. Specifically, the formulation of a sunscreen product is influenced by a number of specific considerations relating to the efficacy of the actives used. The formulator has to study the solubility of the sunscreen in the vehicle, look for synergy between filters, evaluate the rheological (how the product layers on the skin and creates a film former) and sensorial characteristics of the vehicle, and be cognizant of the photo stability of the active ingredients. When all of this is done correctly, it is possible to deliver a safe, effective product at a reasonable cost (exactly as we do here at DeVita!)."
