Reef Safe Provides Relief From Jellyfish Stings

(Dive Travel Business News - Nov 30, 2011) --  Just one sting from the luminous jellyfish can halt on anyone’s snorkeling or dive vacation. Fortunately, most jellyfish stings are harmless, but they have the potential to be very painful. To keep underwater adventures free from pain, Reef Safe™ byTropical Seas® has created the new Sting Cooler™ Jelly Fish Sting Relief.

Available in a spray or gel, the biodegradable Sting Cooler™ Jelly Fish Sting Relief solution provides maximum relief from the discomfort associated with stings from jellyfish, man-o-wars, sand fleas, sea lice, fire coral, and many other stinging marine creatures.

Reef Safe Sting Cooler™ Jelly Fish Sting Relief is made with lidocaine and allantoin to help cool and soothe the painful stinging and burning sensations with instant relief. With fourteen anti-inflammatory and skin soothing botanicals, this relieving blend rehydrates the skins natural nutrients lost helping to accelerate the skin‘s healing process so divers can return to the water faster. As with all Tropical Seas® products, parent company of Reef Safe™, the formula is also biodegradable and non-toxic to sea life.

Both the gel and spray are available in 2 oz. bottles, so it’s easy to pack and carry. The small size allows it to store well in any beach bag or boat compartment for easy access while on aquatic excursions. This can be beneficial for anyone, from the family enjoying a beach day to the serious surfer catching waves. And for the outdoor enthusiast, you’ll find that Sting Cooler™ also works to relieve the pain associated with insect bites such as fire ants, bees & wasps as well, so the product can be used year-round, on or off the water. Reef Safe Jelly Fish Sting Relief can be found online at www.reefsafesuncare.com and retails at $5.

Reef Safe™, manufactured and distributed by Ormond Beach, Fla. based Tropical Seas®,Inc., addresses well-documented concerns about the damage done to reefs and marine life by the 4,000 to 6,000 metric tons of toxic sunscreens estimated to wash off swimmers into the oceans every year. Reef Safe sunscreens were subjected to a comprehensive series of independent laboratory tests to support and authenticate the biodegradability of the lotions. The research found that Reef Safe products biodegrade on average in less than 90 days in seawater and freshwater. No evidence of toxicity to microorganisms and other sea life was detected. Research also found that Reef Safe’s waterproof formula allows less than three percent of the product to come off in water, which compares favorably to the estimated 25 percent of mass-market brand lotions that come off in water.

Reef Safe™ debuted it's entire product line at the trade-only DEMA Show 2011 in Orlando Florida, held November 2-5 at the Orange County Convention Center. The Diving Equipment & Marketing Association (DEMA) is a non-profit membership-based organization dedicated to the promotion and growth of the recreational scuba diving and snorkeling industry. With an international membership, DEMA promotes scuba diving through many initiatives including consumer awareness programs, media campaigns and sponsorship of the DEMA Show.
