Broad Spectrum SPF 30 UVA and UVB Protection with Zinc Oxide
Bulk - 6 tubes (not individually boxed/carton)
Naturally Better Sunscreen ®

Due to the pandemic, we are temporarily out-of-stock on our SPF 30 sunscreen lotion until this fall. We apologize for any inconvenience.

A natural sunscreen lotion base made of NSF certified organic ingredients. Our premium quality SPF 30 lotion uses non-nanoparticle zinc oxide which is the size/type you don’t have to worry about. Zinc oxide sits on the surface of your skin and provides broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection.
 
“Zinc oxide is EWG’s first choice for sun protection.” – Environmental Working Group
 
No Oxybenzone, no octinoxate or any other chemical sunscreen, making it coral reef safe. 
 
Our sunblock formula is certified organic by NSF, it is made in the USA in an FDA certified facility, and then professionally SPF tested (rated at 30) and water-resistant tested (rated at 80 minutes) post-production for verification.
 
Doesn’t zinc oxide leave a white shadow?
Yes, but the white shadowing effect can be greatly minimized with proper application. All sunblock/sunscreens that truly use non-nano zinc oxide have some white shadowing. In fact, it is inevitable because that is how mineral sunblock works. This is part of the tradeoff for using this natural and proven effective sunblock that provides broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection.  
 
Chemical sunscreens are popular with some because they are practically invisible, readily available, and go on super-fast, but there is a tradeoff – there are some health concerns associated with the common ingredients in these. We think of chemical sunscreens like fast food - you’re grateful for the convenience but you know there are consequences
 
Zinc Oxide vs Chemical Sunscreens like Oxybenzone
A physical sunscreen works differently than chemical sunscreens. Zinc Oxide is a mineral (physical) sunscreen that works by sitting on top of the skin to reflect, deflect and scatter damaging UV rays away from the skin. 
 
Chemical sunscreens contain carbon-based compounds, such as oxybenzone, octinoxate, octisalate and avobenzone. These ingredients create a chemical reaction that changes UV rays into heat within your skin.
 
Zinc Oxide pros:
Provides broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection
Protects your skin from the sun upon application, no waiting time
Lasts longer in UV light
Better for sensitive skin
Better for your skin
Longer shelf life than most chemical sunscreens
 
Zinc Oxide cons:
Zinc Oxide sits on top of your skin so it can rub off, sweat or rinse off easily, so you may have to reapply more frequently
True non-nano zinc oxide will leave a little white shadowing on your skin, which makes it unappealing to darker skin tones
Not ideal for physical sport due to sweating
Thicker than most chemical sunscreens, not as easy/convenient to apply
