Sunbutter SPF50 Reef Safe Sunscreen

It's not only our bodies, but our oceans that are under pressure from these chemicals being washed off our skin and absorbed by the environment.

Made with non-nano zinc oxide, it provides broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection while keeping your skin soft and smooth.

Packaged in a plastic-free, reusable tin, it’s designed to be as kind to the earth as it is to your skin.

Why Reef Safe Sunscreen?

Our oceans are under threat from pollution and many sunscreens are contributing to the problem. Whilst providing your skin with UV protection, widely accepted sunscreen chemicals are also killing corals, causing toxic build-up in marine animal tissues and putting a strain on our ocean’s ecosystems.

Sunsmart Solution

SunButter is made with certified sustainable ingredients and broad spectrum UVA and UVB mineral blocker zinc oxide, with superior restorative and nurturing qualities for all skin types, even sensitive and weathered skin. This moisturising sunscreen will leave your skin feeling soft, smooth, and protected from the elements.
