Organic Zero Waste Sunscreen
We’ve found an awesome organic zero waste sunscreen! This blend of natural sun protectants and soothing skin oils by Taylor’s offer the perfect sunscreen for water play and all ages. It offers SPF 30 and is the perfect non-greasy formula for the face and safe for lips!
Apply as needed, but we find 1X-2X is average for a full day in the sun with water! We advise applying BEFORE getting to any “sandy” destination (: Also works great for skin cut, scrapes, etc that need moisture protection.
CAUTION: Stay away from eyes & mouths on this one!
Extra Virgin olive oil, non-nano 25% zinc oxide, sesame seed oil**, candelilla wax, coconut & macadamia nut oil**, vitamin e T-50, sun safe essential oil blend
***Orange essential oil can make skin photosensitive (sun sensitive). However, please note that this is only true when the product contains over 0.5%. Taylor’s ELEVATED sunscreen uses 0.45%, so there is no issue here. Also note that when natural zinc oxide is used in a product, it creates a barrier to protect from the sun, making the concern for orange essential oil being phototoxic/photosensitive to the skin irrelevant.
Also be sure to check out our vegan organic lip balm that comes in biodegradable packaging. It’s definitely a zero waste essential for hot summer days when trying to keep lips hydrated!

I use this on my face and it works into the skin easily. It’s thicker than liquid sunscreens obviously but still pretty easy to use. I’d recommend using a little scooper if you have fingernails. I’ve found the Davids toothpaste key (metal T) works great for this or a deodorant applicator.
