Several ingredients in this product help shield skin from the sun. But it's the non-nano zinc oxide that takes it to the next level.It adds a thin, opaque layer to the skin and moisturizes while blocking the sun. 

• Non-nano = particles are large enough that they do not penetrate the skin surface.
• Maximizes the sun blocking factor and won't end up in your blood stream later.
• Hearing a lot of fuss about sunscreen ingredients? Non-nano zinc oxide has been declared safe for humans and coral reefs.

I had my formula officially tested and it earned both a nice broad spectrum SPF rating and water resistance rating. Unfortunately, sunscreens can only be labelled with these terms if they are manufactured in a certified drug manufacturing facility. These regulated terms are not on my label but you now know the whole story. 

Cover clothing, water, snacks and a wide brimmed hat are also wise things to consider bringing on any adventure!

Best if used after 12 months of opening.

Ingredients: Coconut Oil, Organic Shea Butter, Non-nano Zinc Oxide Powder, Vermont Beeswax, Organic Essential Oils of Eucalyptus and Rosemary

If you are already burned - go get yourself some some Super Skin Salve.

Customer Review:

"... It went on easily, smelled great, and did not at all leave my skin feeling suffocated or greasy.  In fact, I forgot to wash it off and I was perfectly fine.  I only use sunscreen on my face and since I spend a lot of time outside, I need some protection but hate the way most sunscreens feel (even the all natural ones).  The little tin is really convenient too and works for me since I only need face coverage.  I used to play around with making salves and things so am pretty fussy when it comes to products, and think you got the formulation for this just right. I forgot to mention it did a great job of protecting my skin!"
