Solid Sunscreen SPF50

The formula is very water-resistant, ideal for activities around water or while swimming.

The whitening effect is kept to a minimum, the cream sinks in well after you spread it and doesn't feel sticky at all! But to be honest: a slight white film does stay behind. Since we make natural cosmetics, use no chemical sun blockers and no nanoparticles, that's unavoidable. Best to take a look at the product photos.

Yes, it's developed specifically for children and is suitable from 10 months of age.

Dab it onto your skin in spots, then rub in well – about a fingertip per body part.

Our solid sunscreens with SPF30 and SPF50 give you natural UV protection thanks to the mineral filters zinc oxide* and titanium dioxide*. These reflect the UV rays directly, with no wait time, and protect right away. Mineral sun protection is especially gentle on the skin and works wonderfully for people with sensitive skin or allergies, since it contains no synthetic fragrances or chemicals.

Mineral sun care is also eco-friendly, because it contains no harmful substances that could pollute waters. Our solid sunscreen is the sensible choice for sustainable and gentle sun protection that looks after both your skin and the environment.

How do I use the solid sunscreen correctly? – Step-by-step guide

1. Push the sunscreen out of the sleeve: Gently push the solid sunscreen up out of the sleeve from below with a finger, until the white cream just peeks out. Make sure only a small amount comes out – the solid sunscreen goes a long way and can be applied evenly to give an effective UV protection barrier.
2. Apply gently: Apply the solid sunscreen to your skin like a lip balm. Glide the cream over the areas you want, especially sensitive spots like the face, ears, neck and shoulders. The solid texture spreads easily and is especially suitable for children's skin, since it contains no harmful chemicals or fragrances.
3. Massage in and spread: After applying, massage the sunscreen in thoroughly until it's evenly spread and forms a protective UV layer. Massaging it in helps the cream absorb properly into the skin and do its job. Handy detail: while you cream up your child, you can work with one hand and use the other to support or comfort them.
4. Reapply regularly: To keep the UV protection up, reapply the sunscreen every two hours, or after swimming and towelling off. The compact shape of the solid sunscreen makes it perfect for on the go, so you can be sure anytime, anywhere that your skin and your children's skin are well protected.

Tip:

After use, you don't need to push the stick back into the sleeve – there's enough room in the sleeve for the cream to peek over the edge.

With this handy solid sunscreen application you've got a reliable, eco-friendly sun protection that effectively shields your skin from harmful UV rays.

When choosing cosmetic products, watch out especially for synthetic chemicals and plastics, which conventional products often contain. In our natural cosmetics we rely solely on certified, plant-based ingredients that care for your skin gently.

Ingredients worth avoiding include parabens, silicones, mineral oil and synthetic fragrances. These can irritate the skin and, over time, throw off its natural balance. Our products are all free of these and of artificial colourants and preservatives, so we guarantee natural care that protects and strengthens the skin. Instead of harmful ingredients we rely on plant oils, essential oils and antioxidant plant extracts that give your skin moisture and help it regenerate.

Why we use titanium dioxide and zinc oxide:
For reliable UVA and UVB protection, there is currently no effective mineral alternative to the combination of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. Zinc oxide is especially effective in the UVA range, while titanium dioxide gives stronger protection against UVB rays – together they provide comprehensive protection.

But: we deliberately use no nanoparticles.
Our sunscreen contains titanium dioxide and zinc oxide in non-nano form. And from our point of view that is the key point. Nanoparticles can potentially be harmful to health when inhaled – e.g. via sprays. That is why we deliberately go with a solid formulation. It cannot be inhaled the way a spray can, which rules out uptake through the airways.

The German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) also confirms that titanium dioxide is not absorbed through the skin – and that is the main way sunscreen is used.

The consumer advice centre Verbraucherzentrale NRW also recommends mineral sunscreens with natural cosmetics seals such as NATRUE or COSMOS, which use only non-nano zinc oxide and titanium dioxide.
