Made in America Series: Block Island Organics Suncare & Titleist Golf Balls

Here at 2ndVote we always advocate for the three pillars of shopping your values; shop local whenever possible, shop the highest 2ndVote score whenever possible, and shop American whenever possible. American production has been outsourced overseas for the sake of labor costs, sometimes even using slave labor, for far too long. It is high time that we as Americans demand that the goods and services we purchase are made by Americans, for Americans, in AMERICA!

That’s why we at 2ndVote endorse a product Made-in-America every week. This weekly message features various products that have been verified to be 100% American produced so that 2ndVote shoppers can better support American economic independence. It should be noted that while any products or companies featured in this series have been vetted for being American-made, there is not a guarantee that all such companies have been scored by 2ndVote at the time of publication.

This week’s featured Made-in-America product is the Block Island Organics Suncare:

Block Island Organics mission is to give everyone access to safe, effective, and lovable non-toxic suncare and skin care products. They believe in living outside and enjoying the sun and not hiding from it. With a little sun knowledge, the right sunscreen, and healthy skin care from day to night everyone can live our mantra: “Play Smart, Play Safe”.

The sun is the leading cause of skin damage but despite advances in science and cosmetics, skin cancer rates continue to rise and premature skin aging is prevalent. Block Island Organics believe this is due in part to poor quality sunscreens, misleading marketing and the failure to educate consumers on safe suncare practices. To rectify this, they pledge to be consistent, honest, and transparent in marketing as they pursue their goals: educate consumers, optimize product safety, quality, and cost, and earn your trust.
