30 SPF | 80 Mins | Broad-spectrum sun protection enriched with nourishing ingredients

It’s not a Kiwi summer without a splash around. That’s why our broad spectrum Water Safe Sunscreen is made to last longer, even in the water. Your little swimmers get 80 minutes of water-resistant protection from UVA and UVB rays when it’s applied. And it’s gentle on the skin, with nourishing organic plant oils, so you can reapply it regularly.

The blend of natural emollients, including beeswax and almond oil, creates a protective barrier on the skin, locking in moisture and preventing dryness.

This sunscreen uses physical/mineral UV Filters (Zinc), which results in a thicker consistency than our everyday formula- this is because physical filters create a barrier on top of the skin, making the formula Water Resistant. For more information on the difference between chemical and physical sunscreens, read our blog post here.

Reef Friendly. Free from Parabens. Cruelty Free.

Important Note About Our Water Safe Sunscreen

We’re down to the last few units of last year’s Water Safe Sunscreen. You may notice that the formula can occasionally feel firm in the tube — this is simply due to the natural beeswax solidifying over time.

To soften it, just place the closed tube in a bowl of warm (not boiling) water for about 10 minutes, or store it somewhere warm before use. Removing the cap and squeezing directly from the tube can also help the product dispense more easily.

Rest assured, the sunscreen remains completely safe, effective, and offers the same great protection and skin-loving benefits you know and love.
