This compact tin is designed for outdoor days when you need reliable, natural sun defense without chemical filters. The formula centers on non-nano zinc oxide for physical UV protection and combines plant-derived antioxidants, vitamins and minerals to help support skin health. Packaged in recyclable aluminum, the 3-ounce size fits in bags or pockets for hiking, travel, and daily use.

How does this mineral sunscreen protect my skin?

The protection comes from zinc oxide, a physical blocker that sits on the skin and scatters both UVA and UVB rays. Unlike chemical sunscreens, mineral sunscreens act immediately and are less likely to irritate sensitive skin. This product is formulated to avoid harsh chemical filters and prioritizes natural ingredients.

• Broad-spectrum coverage courtesy of zinc oxide.
• SPF 30 for daily outdoor exposure and activity.
• Suitable for both face and body application.
• Immediate protection on contact—no wait time required.

Is this reef-safe and environmentally friendly?

The lotion is designed with reef safety in mind, avoiding oxybenzone and octinoxate and using non-toxic ingredients that reduce environmental impact. The aluminum tin is recyclable, encouraging less plastic waste after use. Ingredients are chosen for biodegradability and low aquatic toxicity where possible.

• Zinc oxide-based, free from commonly reef-harming chemicals.
• Non-toxic formulation aimed at minimizing environmental harm.
• Recyclable 3 oz aluminum tin to reduce plastic waste.
• Plant-derived extracts and naturally sourced antioxidants.

How well does it hold up during activity or water exposure?

This formula is water resistant for over 80 minutes, so it stays effective during swim sessions or heavy perspiration. Reapply after extended water exposure, toweling off, or prolonged sun exposure to maintain SPF coverage. The texture glides on for both face and body without feeling greasy.

• Water resistant beyond 80 minutes for active use.
• Non-greasy finish suitable under hats and layered skincare.
• Works for adults and children when applied appropriately.
• Easy to carry 3 oz tin for quick reapplication outdoors.

What skin benefits come from the natural ingredients?

Beyond UV defense, the lotion contains antioxidants, vitamins and mineral-rich extracts that help support skin’s appearance and comfort. These ingredients are intended to hydrate and soothe, making the tin useful for sensitive or reactive skin-types. The formulation avoids synthetic preservatives and chemical sunscreens to reduce irritation risk.

• Biologically active antioxidants support skin resilience.
• Vitamins and botanical extracts contribute to hydration and comfort.
• Gentle formula suitable for sensitive skin areas like the face.
• No synthetic chemical UV filters that may trigger irritation.
