Commercial sunscreens contain undesirable chemicals, like nano zinc, oxybenzone, avobenzone, octisalate, methoxycinnamate, parabens, phthalates, sulfates, petrochemicals, synthetic perfume, artificial colouring, and micro-plastics, which harm you and the environment. This natural sun shield eliminates the need for these harmful chemicals, while effectively keeping you safe from the sun.
This eco-friendly, reef-safe sun screen is gentle on sensitive skin and packaged in biodegradable materials—no spills, no nasties, no sun burns – just pure fun in the sun!

Description
Protect your skin, love the planet. Back 2 Nature Active Zinc SPF 50 is your ultimate travel companion for sun-soaked adventures.
Why switch?
Chemical sunscreens typically use ingredients like oxybenzone or octinoxate that absorb UV rays & break them down before they reach the skin, but need 20 or 30 minutes to bind to skin to be effective. These chemicals can also be found in the blood stream within 30 min. Furthermore, commercial sunscreens typically contain harmful chemicals or preservatives such as parabens, oxybenzone, avobenzone, octisalate and methoxycinnamate. Such toxic chemicals contribute to coral bleaching and disrupt a variety of human and marine animal functions.
Back 2 Nature blended natural ingredients that are 100% healthy for your skin and healthy for our Planet. They strive to keep our bodies and environment free from any harmful chemicals or preservatives found in most conventional sunscreens. This product aims to leave nothing but footprints on our coastlines and soil, giving ‘back to nature’ all the love, respect and protection it deserves.
