The Mineral Sunscreen That Finally Gets It Right

salt+blue for Real Protection. Real Care. Real Results.

1. Sunscreen That Works in Harmony with Your Skin Health and the Sun

salt+blue is crafted with non-nano zinc oxide and antioxidant-rich botanicals that nourish your skin while providing reliable, mineral-based protection—without ever compromising your health.

Most conventional sunscreens take a different approach. They rely on chemical filters like oxybenzone and octinoxate—ingredients that absorb into your skin and bloodstream, where they can linger for weeks. These compounds have been linked to hormone disruption, irritation, and over time, may even weaken the very skin they’re meant to protect.

2. Consistent Coverage That Doesn’t Break Down

salt+blue’s non-nano zinc oxide forms a stable, physical barrier that reflects UVA and UVB rays—delivering reliable, broad-spectrum protection that holds up through long days and real-life adventures. Whether you’re in the water, on a hike, or chasing sun with your kids, you’re protected.

Chemical sunscreens work differently. Instead of sitting on the skin’s surface, they absorb into the skin and convert UV rays into heat. But these filters—like avobenzone, octinoxate, and oxybenzone—can start to break down within minutes of sun exposure. As they degrade, the protection they offer becomes weaker and more uneven, leaving gaps that put your skin at risk. That’s why frequent reapplication is a must—and why many people unknowingly stay exposed.

With salt+blue, your mineral protection stays stable under the sun—so you can focus more on living, and less on whether your sunscreen is still working.

3. Not all “Clean” Sunscreens Are What They Seem

Some "natural" brands blend zinc oxide with titanium dioxide, which offers weaker UVA protection and can irritate skin. Others use zinc oxide that’s nano-sized—small enough to absorb into your body.

salt+blue uses only non-nano zinc oxide, which stays on the skin’s surface—where it belongs—while offering the most complete UVA/UVB protection available from a single mineral.

4. A Smooth, Invisible Finish for All Skin Tones

Thick, chalky residue is a deal-breaker for many. That’s because some zinc oxide particles are too large to blend in.

Our non-nano zinc oxide is small enough to blend invisibly but still large enough to avoid absorption into your bloodstream. The particles are optimized for a sheer, blendable application that disappears into your skin—no matter your tone.

5. Protecting The Oceans, Not Damaging Them

Even small amounts of chemical sunscreen can disrupt marine ecosystems—damaging coral DNA and contributing to reef bleaching. And it's not just the formulas—non-recyclable, wasteful packaging often ends up in landfills or waterways, contributing to the pollution that threatens our oceans.

salt+blue is intentionally crafted to leave no toxic trace. Free from reef-harming chemicals like oxybenzone and housed in consciously chosen, recyclable packaging, our products are made to protect your skin while honoring the waters we all depend on.

No toxic runoff, no marine damage—just mindful sun care that lets you chase the sun, cherish the sea.
