SPF 50 broad spectrum protection for the whole body. Water-resistant & reef-safe. Delivered in a recycled plastic, recyclable tube.

This sunscreen provides great broad spectrum SPF 50 sun protection while also being water-resistant and reef-safe. Redness and sun damage won’t stick around for long after application. Our innovative mix of natural ingredients from pine rosin, larch tree, and zinc oxide collaborate to bring you effective water resistant sun protection. Powered by our regenerative plant extracts, it’s gentle on skin without the usual harsh synthetics that cause irritation.

  • Powered by non-nano zinc oxide that blocks sun’s UVA/UVB rays, this sunscreen is safe for you and the planet. It absorbs quickly, without any heavy white residue or a greasy feeling, while providing a naturally-safe water resistant protection through pine rosin instead of synthetics.
  • Thrive’s unique super-plants - Juanilama, Fierrillo, and Corallilo - infuse skin-protecting antioxidants* to prevent damage before it starts.  
  • Bonus points for also being reef-safe, plant and mineral based, cruelty-free, GMO-free, and vegan while being packaged in a recyclable, recycled plastic tube.

Recommended by NYT Wirecutter as the 'Best Reef-Safe Sunscreen'

– NYT WIRECUTTER

"This natural brand uses regenerative farming practices, PCR packaging, and clean ingredients. So already we'd consider it a winner in our books. But it also works—like really works. The mineral formula rubs in effortlessly, is hydrating, and doesn't irritate even the most sensitive of skin types."

"As a South Asian woman living in Florida, I'm always on the hunt for a mineral sunscreen that applies quickly, doesn't leave a white cast, and is marked at a reasonable price for all-over use. This one blends well into my skin, feels moisturizing thanks to tons of antioxidants, and is packaged in 100% plant-based material that's easy to recycle. Plus, the regenerative model should be lauded as it focuses on farming techniques that restore soil."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Not at all! The reason we developed this product is because so many safe, natural sunscreens didn’t had a pleasant skin feel and leave a white residue. We worked for over 4 years to develop this innovative & healthy formula so that it protects you from the sun but doesn’t leave you feeling sticky, greasy, or with a white residue.
