Zinc Oxide Sunscreen Paste in a Tin (2oz)
Compact, clean, and concentrated, this mineral sunscreen tin delivers the same trusted Waxhead protection in a portable format. It's made for faces, kids, and sensitive skin. It's built to last through surf, sweat, and sun.
Why choose this sunscreen
- 25% non-nano zinc oxide for full UVA and UVB mineral protection.
- Only 4 food-grade ingredients, safe for babies, kids, and sensitive skin.
- Biodegradable, reef-safe sunscreen with zero oxybenzone or petrochemicals.
- Applies smoothly with fingertips for precise coverage.
- 2oz travel tin ideal for beach bags, backpacks, or daily skincare routines.
- Non-comedogenic, unscented, and dermatologist-recommended for reactive skin.
Protection that travels with you
Our 2oz zinc sunscreen tin is designed for people who live outside but don’t want bulk. It’s the same ultra-safe, reef-safe formula found in our 3.7oz stick, packaged for portability and fingertip application. Perfect for faces, necks, and smaller touch-ups throughout the day.
Families love its compact size and easy sharing between adults and kids. Outdoor pros trust its grip through sweat, saltwater, and sun. It’s a mineral sunscreen for face and body that outlasts heat, humidity, and ocean spray, without breaking down or stinging eyes.
What you’ll notice
Day 1 – Smooth fingertip application. You can see exactly where it’s applied. No guessing, no missed spots.
Day 7 – Your skin feels protected and calm, even after long days in the sun. No burns, no irritation.
Day 30 – Still going strong. The tin lasts far longer than expected, and you trust it completely for yourself and your kids.
Real mineral protection
This zinc oxide sunscreen tin blocks UV rays on contact, using physical protection instead of chemical absorption. The thick, water-resistant blend of organic coconut oil and beeswax keeps your defense visible and reliable, even after swimming or sweating. It’s a biodegradable sunscreen that protects both your skin and marine life.
It is made in the USA using non-nano, uncoated zinc oxide, the same mineral dermatologists recommend for infants under six months. It’s the most effective, safest SPF option for truly sensitive or allergy-prone skin.
How to use
- Warm the surface of the sunscreen with your fingertips until soft.
- Dot on face, nose, cheeks, and other exposed areas.
- Spread evenly for visible coverage. The light white tint shows complete protection.
- Reapply every 2 hours or after swimming or toweling off.
