What type of sunscreen is best for the beach?
A broad-spectrum, water-resistant SPF 30 to 50 is best for the beach. Mineral zinc oxide protects on contact and is reef-safe, so it holds up in water and sun without harming marine life. Our SPF 50 Face and Body is built for it.
Is your beach sunscreen reef-safe?
Yes. Our formulas skip oxybenzone and octinoxate, the filters linked to coral damage, so they are reef-conscious and ocean-friendly. You get broad-spectrum mineral protection that is safe for you and the water.
How often should I reapply at the beach?
Reapply every two hours, and immediately after swimming, sweating, or toweling off. Our sunscreen is water-resistant, but no sunscreen is waterproof, so frequent reapplication is what keeps you protected.
Will mineral sunscreen wash off in the ocean?
It is water-resistant for up to 80 minutes of swimming, then it needs reapplying. Mineral zinc bonds well to skin and resists rinse-off better than many formulas, but always reapply after a long swim.
Is mineral sunscreen good for the beach?
Yes. Zinc oxide reflects UVA and UVB the moment you apply it, with no wait time, and it is gentle enough for sensitive skin and kids. Reef-safe and fragrance-free, it is an easy beach-day choice for the whole family.
