WATERMAN'S Mineral Sunscreen SPF 55 Zinc Oxide — Fragrance-Free, Reef-Safe, Water-Resistant Lotion with Aqua-Armor

WATERMAN'S Mineral SPF 55 is a fragrance-free, zinc-oxide sunscreen lotion that delivers broad-spectrum, water-resistant sun protection for face and body without harsh chemicals.

This lightweight mineral formula was developed for active outdoor use: it blends non-nano zinc oxide with the patented Aqua-Armor system to form a physical UV barrier that resists sweat and hours in the water. Designed to be reef friendly and free of oxybenzone, the lotion goes on smoothly, absorbs without leaving a greasy residue, and is suitable for a wide range of outdoor sports and everyday wear.

How well does this sunscreen stay on during water sports or heavy sweating?

WATERMAN'S Mineral SPF 55 uses Aqua-Armor technology that has been independently tested to remain effective after extended time in water. The formula is built to cling to skin rather than run off, reducing the need for constant touch-ups during prolonged activity.

• Independently tested for effectiveness after prolonged water exposure (up to 8 hours).
• Highly water resistant and sweat-proof—formulated for surf, swim, and high-intensity sports.
• Non-greasy texture that won’t drip into eyes or impair grip on gear.

Is this safe for reefs and sensitive skin?

The lotion is formulated without oxybenzone and is labeled reef friendly, relying on non-nano zinc oxide as the active ingredient. It’s fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, and non-comedogenic, making it a suitable choice for those who prefer mineral sunscreens and gentler formulations.

• Oxybenzone-free and designed to minimize reef impact.
• Fragrance-free, gluten-free, and paraben-free to reduce irritation risks.
• Non-nano zinc oxide provides a physical barrier rather than chemical absorption.

Will it protect against both burning and long-term sun damage?

Yes — as a broad-spectrum SPF 55 mineral sunscreen, it protects against UVB (burning) and UVA (aging) rays. The high SPF gives robust short-term sunburn protection while the zinc oxide component helps block a wide range of UVA wavelengths.

• SPF 55 rating for strong UVB protection.
• Zinc oxide offers wide-spectrum UVA protection.
• Recommended for active outdoor exposure by users and designed around athletic needs.

How does the formula feel and apply to skin?

The lotion was created to apply smoothly and absorb without leaving a heavy white film or greasy finish. Because it’s non-comedogenic and lightly textured, it won’t clog pores or make hands slippery when handling equipment.

• Non-greasy, quick-absorbing formula with minimal visible residue.
• Applies evenly across face and body for reliable coverage.
• Suitable for everyday use on all skin types, including active outdoor conditions.

Who is this for: WATERMAN'S Mineral SPF 55 is aimed at outdoor athletes, water enthusiasts, and anyone who wants a robust, reef-conscious mineral sunscreen that stands up to sun, sweat, and surf. It’s a practical option for surfers, swimmers, sailors, lifeguards, runners, and families seeking broad-spectrum protection without fragranced chemical sunscreens.
