We’ve compiled a list of your most frequently asked questions to ensure your shopping experience is as seamless as possible. If your question isn’t answered here, or if you would like to get in touch you can reach us via concierge@vanessasposi.com

What are your sustainable swimwear fabrics made from? 

The fabrics used are OEKO-TEX® certified (free of harmful substances) and the majority of our models are made from ECONYL® (recycled yarn from plastic waste recovered from the oceans).

The linings are impregnated with natural antioxidants, Aloe Vera and Vitamin E, to soothe and nourish sun-drenched skin.

Where does the recycled nylon come from?

The majority of our main fabric is made using ECONYL®, a 100% regenerative nylon made from abandoned fishing nets and nylon waste, from oceans and landfills around the world.

This results in cleaner oceans and swimwear that good for your soul

Is recycled nylon the same quality as regular nylon? 

Yes, it is exactly the same. The quality of the recycled nylon fabric is not compromised at all during the regeneration process. In fact, the nylon waste is recycled right back to its original purity meaning it is exactly the same as virgin nylon.

Does your swimwear provide any UV protection?

Yes! The majority of our main fabric has in-built SPF 50+ protection.

What’s your sustainable swimwear lining made of?

The fabric used for each VANESSA SPOSI signature lining is a nylon microfibre that incorporates a 100% natural Aloe Vera and Vitamin E based cosmetic to help the skin fight oxidation while wearing the garment, moisturize the deep layers of our skin, reduce the effects of time, restore cellular balance and prevent stretch marks.

What is an antioxidant swimsuit and how does microencapsulation work?

  1. This technology selects the most suitable cosmetics for each function. These cosmetics are micro-encapsulated.
  2. Microencapsulation technology, the microcapsules are incorporated into the polyamide yarn during the spinning process; they are therefore fixed inside and outside the nylon filaments.
  3. Cosmetotextile TECHNOLOGY the contents of the microcapsules are released when the garment is used in contact with body heat.
  4. This technology provides the skin with cosmetic benefits during the use of the garment.

What are the MAIN CAUSES OF SKIN OXIDATION?

There are a variety of factors that can cause skin aging. Much of this “premature skin aging” is the result of free radical activity in the body. Environmental factors such as pollution and sunlight that generate free radicals in the skin.

What are the ANTIOXIDANT INGREDIENTS contained in the microcapsules?

Antioxidants are naturally occurring substances that can offer protection against the harmful effects of free radicals on skin cells.

The combination of vitamin E and aloe vera helps protect the skin from the effects of oxidation.

Vitamin E (tocopherol) is an antioxidant found in the skin and in various foods, such as vegetables, seeds and meat.

A true beauty nutrient, vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that protects the body from free radicals, boosts collagen production and soothes skin overheated by the sun.

For a most desirable plumpy & luminous effect

Aloe Vera, a plant renowned in Ayurvedic medicine for elevating the spirit and healing the body, is a natural source of polyphenols, antioxidants that nourish and accelerate cell regeneration.
