Love Sun Body started researching and developing our sunscreen formulas in 2012. We started working with Ecocert to certify our formulas Cosmos Natural.Cosmos certification includes formulas, raw ingredients, packaging, labeling & manufacturing. Each of these items have to be approved for certification. After 6 years of research and development, Love Sun Body Sunscreens are the first and only sunscreens in the U.S. that are certified Cosmos Natural.
