With so many sunscreens to choose from, zinc oxide stands out as the safe, natural, and eco-conscious option. Acting as a physical barrier, it reflects UVA and UVB rays rather than absorbing them, making it gentle enough for babies yet powerful enough for the whole family. Free from harsh chemicals, fragrance, and reef-damaging ingredients, zinc sunscreen delivers broad-spectrum, water-resistant protection every day of the year. It’s the smart choice for families who want effective sun care that’s kind to skin and the planet.
Not all sunscreens are created equal. For centuries, zinc oxide has been trusted as nature’s safest sun shield — and today, non-nano zinc sunscreen remains the gold standard for healthy, eco-friendly protection. Unlike chemical sunscreens that absorb UV rays, non-nano zinc works as a physical barrier, reflecting both UVA and UVB rays before they can cause harm. Gentle on sensitive skin, safe for children, and reef-friendly, it delivers immediate, long-lasting defense without harsh chemicals. From the beach to daily wear, natural zinc sunscreen is a conscious choice for sun safety that protects both you and the planet.
In Australia’s harsh climate, your lips deserve natural care that truly works. Little Urchin’s Natural Lip Balm is made with nourishing, chemical-free ingredients like castor oil, coconut oil, and vitamin E—designed to hydrate, protect, and restore without synthetics. Whether you're hitting the beach or just braving the daily sun, it's clean, effective lip care you can trust—made right here in Australia.
