Nano, Nano - Shazzbott?

Okay - I am certainly dating myself with the "Mork and Mindy" reference there.

But on the subject of nanoparticles... many of you have been about the new miessence Reflect Outdoor Balm's content of zinc oxide and this is what I have discovered:

Reflect Outdoor Balm Ingredients
Organic olea europaea (olive) fruit oil, zinc oxide*, capric triglyceride (coconut), organic butyrospermum parkii (shea) fruit butter, organic unrefined cera alba (beeswax), avena sativa (oat) kernel flour, polygonoum multiflorum root extract, d-alpha tocopherol (natural vitamin e), organic copernicia prunifera (carnauba) wax, aroma (essential oils), rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) leaf extract,dunaliella salina algae extract.

*Our zinc oxide is 3-8 microns in size (nanoparticles are defined as less than 100 nanometers; a nanometer is 1/1000 of a micron).
