Whole Foods Market carries the highest percentage of “green” rated sun
products of any retailer, according to a 2014 report from the
Environmental Working Group (EWG). Many of the “green” rated sunscreens
also meet Whole Foods Market’s Premium
Body Care Standards.
“Sunscreen is one of the most important skin care products you can buy
to protect your skin, and we’re happy to offer the largest selection of
‘green’ rated sunscreen to our shoppers,” said Jody
Villecco, global quality standards coordinator at Whole Foods
Market. “Our goal is to sell the highest quality products we possibly
can, and we are thrilled to be recognized by the Environmental Working
Group as the leader in this area.”
Skin cancer is the most common form of all cancers in the U.S.,
according to the EWG.
The EWG also says an ideal sunscreen blocks the majority of UVA and UVB
rays with active ingredients that last, while containing only
ingredients that have been proven safe for use by both adults and
children.
From Friday, May 23 through Monday, May 26, all sun care will be 30
percent off at all Whole Foods Market locations.
