Mineral Sunscreen

Intrinsic Mineral Sunscreen is a true barrier sunscreen — not a chemical filter. Non-nano Zinc Oxide sits on the skin's surface and physically reflects both UVA and UVB rays away from the skin, providing immediate broad-spectrum protection from the moment you apply it.

No activation time. No hormone-disrupting chemicals. No synthetic filters. Just a pure botanical barrier that works exactly as nature intended.

Formulated with Avocado Oil, Cocoa Butter and Coconut Oil, this nourishing barrier cream simultaneously moisturises and conditions the skin while protecting it — leaving skin comfortable, hydrated and protected rather than dry or stripped. Beeswax makes it naturally water-resistant, though reapplication after swimming is recommended.

Approximately SPF20. Marine safe. Free from oxybenzone and octinoxate. Clean enough for the most sensitive skin — and the ocean.

Please note: This product contains Lavender Oil which is contra-indicated during pregnancy. Pregnant mothers should check all ingredients before use.

WHAT YOUR SKIN WILL FEEL

• Immediately protected from the moment of application — no waiting
• Comfortably moisturised and nourished in the sun
• Lightweight botanical barrier without a heavy or greasy finish

THIS IS FOR YOU IF:

• You want true mineral sun protection free from chemical filters
• Your skin is sensitive, reactive or prone to irritation from conventional sunscreens
• You are conscious of hormone-disrupting chemicals in conventional UV filters
• You want a reef-safe, marine-safe sunscreen with clean credentials
• You believe your sunscreen should protect your skin and the environment

WHY MINERAL OVER CHEMICAL?

Most conventional sunscreens use chemical UV filters that absorb into the skin and convert UV rays into heat. Many of these — including oxybenzone and octinoxate — are known hormone disruptors, are harmful to coral reefs and have been detected in the bloodstream after a single application.

Mineral sunscreens work differently. Non-nano Zinc Oxide sits on the skin's surface and physically reflects UV rays — no absorption, no activation time, no systemic exposure. It is photostable, meaning it doesn't degrade in sunlight, and it is widely recommended by dermatologists for sensitive, acne-prone and post-treatment skin.

Intrinsic Mineral Sunscreen uses only non-nano Zinc Oxide — particles large enough that they cannot penetrate the skin or enter the bloodstream — making it one of the safest, most transparent sun protection options available.
