Please Note: This sun cream contains non-nano zinc, known for its safety and effectiveness, making it an excellent choice for kids! Additionally, the product features a gentle form of vitamin C, a known skin-active ingredient. However, it's important to note that while there's no research indicating that this vitamin C is unsafe for children, there's also no definitive research confirming its safety for them. Therefore, we strongly recommend consulting with your physician before using this product on children or babies and always performing a small patch test prior to full application.
This product has an approximate protection of 25-30 SPF*. Apply generously at least fifteen minutes before sun exposure and re-apply every thirty minutes to an hour as needed during sun exposure.
Vitamin C + E:
- Protects lipids from oxidative damage on the skin - a process that creates free radicals and causes cellular damage and accelerated aging
- Minimizes the appearance of dark/age spots, crows feet, or other wrinkles
- Promotes the skin's natural collagen renewal process
- Lessens the appearance of scarring and hyperpigmentation
- Counteracts damage from harmful UV rays
WHAT'S INSIDE?
1. Pastured Raised Grass-fed and Grass-finished Tallow: Our tallow is nutrient-dense, golden yellow, and naturally contains high amounts of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K.
Tallow is rich in fatty acids, including oleic acid, palmitic acid, and stearic acid. These fatty acids help to moisturize and nourish the skin, forming a protective barrier that can prevent water loss and keep the skin hydrated.
2. 20% Non-Nano Zinc-Oxide: Non-nano zinc oxide is a safer alternative to sun cream than chemical alternatives like Oxybenzone. Some people with sensitive skin may find non-nano zinc oxide less irritating compared to certain chemical sunscreen ingredients. Non-nano zinc refers to zinc particles that are larger in size compared to nano-sized particles. These particles typically have a size range of over 100 nanometers, which reduces the likelihood of them penetrating the skin. Non-nano zinc works by forming a physical barrier on the skin that reflects both UVA/UVB rays, providing photo protection. Due to the larger particle size, this is the reason many non-nano zinc oxide sun creams may create a white cast on the skin!
3. Vitamin C Oil (Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate): Tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate (THD ascorbate) is a stable, gentle and oil-soluble form of Vitamin C. Vitamin C helps protects against free radical damage and initiates repair to cells. Vitamin C is effective against both UVA (the deep penetrating, cell-damaging rays) and UVB (the rays that primarily affect the epidermis and cause sunburn).
4. Natural Vitamin E Oil (D-alpha Tocopherol): The Real Deal—Not Synthetic! The 100% pure & natural Vitamin E Oil used in this product (D-alpha tocopherol) is all-natural, 100% derived from non-GMO organic olives. Using a unique distillation and extraction process the Vitamin E is extracted from olives rather than sunflowers.
5. Organic Vanilla Co2 Extract: The Vanilla CO₂ extract used in this product is crafted through a gentle extraction process from Vanilla planifolia beans. This certified-organic extract captures the full depth of real vanilla—rich in vanillin with smooth, balsamic, and woody undertones.
Vanilla CO₂ is naturally high in vanillin and antioxidants, helping to neutralize free radicals and protect skin from environmental stress. Its gentle anti-inflammatory properties soothe irritation, making it ideal for sensitive or sun-exposed skin. Unlike synthetic fragrances, CO₂ extraction preserves more of vanilla’s natural compounds, offering a nourishing, true-to-nature scent that brings comfort and calm to your daily sun care ritual.
TEXTURE & APPEARANCE: A smooth and gentle spreadable cream. Since this is a mineral sunscreen with non-nano zinc oxide - there may be a white cast before rubbing it in.
SUGGESTED USE: Apply generously at least fifteen minutes before sun exposure. Re-apply every 30 minutes to an hour as needed during sun exposure. This product is not waterproof so we recommend applying after bathing.
SCENT: This cream is scented with Vanilla CO2 Extract. It smells like creamy Vanilla! The scent is medium to strong.
TUBE & PACKAGING: BPA Free tubes and made in the USA.
SHELF LIFE: 12 months at room temperature, well over a year refrigerated.
*Olive Sensitivity Warning* The Vitamin E we use in this product is all-natural and from cold-pressed organic Olives, please take note of this if you have an allergy to Olives or have experienced skin sensitivities with olives in the past.
