Did you know?! Every year 14,000 tonnes of sunscreens wash off bathers into our oceans. Science now knows that many of the chemicals present in traditional sunscreens directly impact ocean health. Oxybenzone is responsible for deformations in coral tissue and the death of coral larva while Titanium Dioxide has been found to react with light when in seawater producing hydrogen peroxide. These are just two of the culprits; unfortunately there are more.
Choosing a natural, reef-safe sunscreen that is made from high quality certified sustainable ingredients is not only sun smart but environmentally smart.

A message from the manufacturer:
Sunscreen in a tin is a little different to your usual plastic packaging so to ensure you get the best from your natural sunscreen make sure you store the tin sitting flat, keep it below 30 degrees, and wipe the thread occasionally with a cloth.
