Understanding our ingredients

Dive into what makes Coastal Minerals By Bee sunscreen special. We're committed to providing safe, effective sun protection for everyone. Learn about our certified organic, reef-safe ingredients and why they stand out from the rest. Made in Australia, our mineral non-nano zinc sunscreen is designed with your health and the environment in mind.

The main sun blocker:

•  Australian non-nano zinc (pure mineral from Aussie mines) – sits on your skin like a shield and bounces UV rays away.

The rest – all the goodies that make it smooth, spreadable, stable, and feel great:

•  Desert plant wax (from a certified organic shrub) – stops it melting in the hot sun.

•  Super-light coconut oil fraction – feels silky and non-greasy, like a light lotion.

•  Organic sunflower seed oil – moisturises and keeps skin soft after a salty swim.

•  Plant glycerin (from veggies, certified organic) – pulls in moisture so skin stays plump.

•  Natural vitamin E (from plants like wheatgerm) – keeps the cream fresh and calms skin.

•  Coconut and corn mix emulsifier – blends everything together naturally, no nasty chemicals.

•  Castor bean helpers – spread the zinc evenly so no white patches or clumps.

•  Natural earth clays (red, yellow, black pigments) – light tint to avoid the grey cast on any skin tone.

•  Sugar cane thickener – turns it into a nice creamy texture, not runny.

•  Sea salt – improves the feel and texture.

•  Purified water – clean base for the whole mix.

That’s literally it – a short, honest handful of plant-powered and mineral ingredients. Everything plant-derived is certified organic, minerals are top-grade clean, and zero dodgy stuff like parabens, silicones, chemical filters, fragrances, or essential oils that could sting little faces.

No hidden extras, no marketing tricks – just real ingredients you can understand and trust. Scan that QR code now and you’ll see it matches the official list, but without the confusing names. Safe for bubs from 6 months, reef-safe, and ready for beach days. 🏖️☀️
