Goddess Garden Organics Debuts
Goddess Garden Organics have debuted their new brand packaging on shelves in retail channels across the US.
All Goddess Garden sunscreen products are 100% natural, biodegradable, reef safe and use naturally occurring minerals that wash off safely and settle back into the earth without causing harm to the planet. Among the 20 SKUs in the Goddess Garden Organics Classic and Sport lines is the new natural, non-aerosol Sport and Kids Sport Continuous Spray 3.4-ounce travel sizes, which are perfect to take along in your bag.
“Natural sunscreens have always been the better choice, but now we know it is even more important to avoid chemical sunscreens in light of recent research indicating that Oxybenzone, a harmful chemical used in many conventional sunscreens, is absorbed directly into the bloodstream. Oxybenzone has been associated with an increased risk of hormone disruption and closely tied to endometriosis and fertility problems in both adults and children,” says Nova Covington, Founder and CEO of Goddess Garden Organics.
“Our mission at Goddess Garden is to educate consumers about the benefits of natural mineral-based sunscreens, which are safe for people and the planet,” continues Covington. “All Goddess Garden sunscreens are designed for people who love the great outdoors and want peace of mind that they and their families are well protected while enjoying the sun.”
Goddess Garden sunscreen products protect the skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays without the chemicals used in traditional sunscreens, making it one of the safest natural sunscreens on the market today. Each product is sheer, non-greasy, absorbs quickly, and offers the highest percentage of organic ingredients available in any sunscreen product on the market.
The Roots of Goddess Garden Organics
Goddess Garden Organics was founded by husband and wife team Nova Covington and Paul Halter after their daughter had a serious reaction to conventional skin care products. Nova, with an herbalist background and Paul with a nutrition science degree, were inspired to develop safe skincare solutions using the pure minerals of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide as the active ingredients for sun protection. Goddess Garden is the fastest growing mineral based sunscreen on the market today. The full Goddess Garden line is carried in nearly 8000 stores including Whole Foods, Target, Wegmans, REI, CVS, Sprouts Farmers Market, Meijer, Fred Meyer and many other natural retailers throughout the US and Canada.

Dive Worldwide Announces Bite-Back as its Charity of the Year
Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.
Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”
Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.
Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”
To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
Visit Dive Worldwide to discover its diverse range of international scuba adventures and visit Bite-Back to learn more about the charity’s campaigns.
