Look Like You Spent the Winter at the Beach with our New Reef Friendly Tinted Sunscreen

February 14, 2018

You don’t want to look like you haven’t been on a beach since last summer – but you don’t want that lily-white skin to burn either.  Before you hit the beach or the ski slope, check out the brand-new reef safe tinted sunscreen from Stream2Sea – it looks as good as it works!

We all love knowing that the skincare products we chose DO make a difference. And honestly, when we first created Stream2Sea reef-safe sunscreen with non-nano titanium dioxide, we thought the slight white tint was a badge of honor – something that showed we were EcoConscious enough to care about the health of the ecosystems we love (not to mention our own bodies).

We still feel that way, but it seems like not everyone wanted to flaunt that pale badge of honor – so we fixed it. Our new tinted sunscreen made with all-natural minerals is actually slightly more effective at protecting your skin from UVA and UVB rays, but that slight white tinge is now a really cool, natural looking tan.  Our new tinted sunscreen still goes on light and non-greasy, spreads a little easier than our original formula, won’t burn your eyes and of course is reef safe and human safe!

And we assumed women would be the first to love this reef-safe sunscreen because it can eliminate the step between sunscreen and foundation every morning. Turns out, our biggest fans are men – who would have guessed that they didn’t want to show off their brilliantly white legs after this record-setting cold winter?

And don’t forget that if your next vacation is to a ski lodge not a dive boat, using reef-safe sunscreen and personal care products still makes an enormous difference in your part of the world. Wastewater treatment plants don’t remove the oxybenzone and other chemical UV filters found in most sunscreens that kill coral larva at incredibly low concentrations – not to mention other stuff like parabens, cylcopentasiloxane, formaldehyde, diazolidinyl urea, and quaternium that all have adverse effects on our bodies and the critters we share our planet with.

Buy a bottle here and then be sure to let us and the world know what you think – we’ll raffle off a $100 gift certificate every month with every review counting as an entry. Or better yet, take a selfie and tag us at @Stream2Sea or use the #EcoConscious2018 hashtag to show us how great you look in our tinted sunscreen!
