Project Reef Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 Zinc Lotion — 3.4 fl oz Travel Tube, Reef‑Safe & Water‑Resistant

This lightweight mineral lotion uses non-nano zinc oxide as its active ingredient to shield skin from UVA and UVB rays without chemical filters. Formulated to meet Hawaii's Reef Act 104 standards, it avoids ingredients that harm coral and marine life, and it arrives in responsibly sourced, recycled packaging sized for travel. Smooth and non-greasy, the 3.4 fl oz tube is designed for easy application on the go—whether you’re snorkeling, surfing, or spending a day at the beach.

How does Project Reef protect my skin while staying reef-friendly?

Project Reef relies on mineral-based zinc oxide that sits on the skin’s surface to reflect and scatter UV rays instead of absorbing them like chemical sunscreens. This method provides broad-spectrum coverage without oxybenzone, octinoxate, or other ingredients restricted by Hawaii’s reef-protection law.

• Active ingredient: non-nano zinc oxide for physical UV protection
• Free from oxybenzone and octinoxate, complying with Reef Act 104
• Vegan formula with no animal-derived components
• Broad-spectrum SPF 50 for daily and outdoor use

Is this sunscreen easy to apply and suitable for family use?
