Nature-friendly sun protection for every body – gentle, effective, and reef-safe.


Why Use Sunscreen Daily?

Sunscreen is a crucial part of your daily skin protection ritual – not just for beach days. Everyone over 6 months of age, regardless of skin tone or whether you burn easily, should apply sunscreen daily. Sun damage is cumulative and silent – UVA and UVB rays can still affect your skin even on cloudy days or during winter walks.

Babies under 6 months should be kept out of direct sunlight, with shade and protective clothing offering the safest protection.


What Does SPF 30 Mean?

SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. An SPF 30 means it would take 30 times longer for your skin to burn than if you wore no sunscreen – assuming proper application.

The "UVA" symbol inside a circle on our label means our product meets strict EU standards, offering at least one-third UVA protection compared to its SPF – this is known as broad-spectrum protection.


Our Star Ingredient: Zinc Clear XP (Non-Nano Zinc Oxide)

Our mineral sunscreen is powered by ZinClear® XP, a non-nano zinc oxide that is reef-safe, non-carcinogenic, and Ecocert-approved. It offers:

  • Broad-spectrum UV protection (UVB, UVA-I, UVA-II)

  • High transparency on skin with minimal whiteness

  • Ideal for sensitive skin and young children

  • Daily UVA protection from ageing, darkening, and pigmentation

  • Mild, soothing formulation for face, neck, and body

  • Effective as an SPF booster in combination with other UV actives

Zinc oxide is one of the only two FDA-recognised sunscreen ingredients deemed safe and effective. It provides superior protection compared to titanium dioxide, especially against long-wave UVA rays that cause deep cellular damage.


Clinically Tested & Certified Protection

  • SPF 30 – Clinically tested on human participants with various skin types

  • Tested using ISO 24444 and ISO 24442 standards for SPF and UVA protection (used in EU, UK, Australia, NZ, and more)

  • Broad-spectrum verified – proven protection from both UVA and UVB

  • In-vivo and in-vitro testing performed by CPTC labs with 40 years of sunscreen testing experience


Added DNA Protection – Antileukine™ 6 (Golden Seaweed Extract)

Our suncream is fortified with Antileukine™ 6, a clinically proven active from Laminaria ochroleuca (golden seaweed) that:

  • Decreases inflammation and visible redness by 11% within 24 hours

  • Shields DNA from UVA/UVB damage

  • Inhibits “sunburn cells” formation

  • Strengthens the skin's natural barrier and moisture balance

  • Offers global cell protection with anti-photoaging effects

How to Use

  • Apply 15 minutes before sun exposure

  • Use at least 1 oz (a shot glass amount) to cover your body thoroughly

  • Don’t forget neck, ears, face, tops of feet, and legs

  • Reapply every 2 hours, especially after swimming or sweating

  • Wear daily, even when cloudy or in winter, for long-term protection


After-Sun Skin Ritual

While mineral sunscreens are highly effective, they can be drying. To nourish and rebalance your skin, cleanse gently and moisturise to lock in moisture and prepare your skin for any following days in the sun.
