young children, we have developed an additive that enables parents and children
to see that this sunscreen has in fact been applied to all areas of exposed skin.
This additive is a coloring agent that fades approximately three minutes after
application. Taking advantage of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Summer Games approach,
we have incorporated the additive with an olympic theme: Oceana
Gold, Silver & Bronze. The coloring agents will actually be gold,
silver or bronze according to the label of the particular sunscreen purchased.
In addition to these choices, each color would be available in several degrees
of sun protection factor (SPF): SPF4, SPF8, SPF15 & SPF30 (SPF4 being the least
and SPF30 being almost total sunblock). Oceana is a non-greasy water resistant
sunscreen with aloe vera gel, vitamin E and is paba free.

The high incidence of skin cancer in Australia is the reason for our choice of
this product. Skin cancer has been on the rise due to environmental issues
caused by humankind. Australia is known for its sunshine and carefree good life
attitude; but Australians are facing a severe problem with exposure to the sun.
Australia is the perfect market for sunscreen because two out of every three
Australians will develop skin cancer at some point in their life. One half of
Australians under the age of fourteen already have some damage to their skin.
Australians have the highest rate of skin cancer in the world, with are
approximately 140 thousand new cases per year. See Appendix A for additional
information.
