A mineral face and body sunscreen with SPF 30, built entirely from certified organic and natural ingredients. Raw Elements' Face + Body Bio-Resin Tube works with 23% non-nano zinc oxide as its sole active — no water, no synthetic fillers, no chemical UV filters. What fills the rest of the formula is a dense base of botanicals: organic sunflower oil, hemp seed oil, cocoa butter, mango butter, beeswax, green tea, black tea, coffee bean extract, rosemary, and vitamin E.
The result is a formula that nourishes as thoroughly as it protects. Water-resistant beyond 80 minutes, it works as hard at the beach as it does in a morning skincare routine. Never runs into eyes. Soy, gluten, and nut-free.
The tube is made from bio-resin derived from sugarcane waste — a material that captures CO2 from the atmosphere rather than releasing it, and is fully recyclable. Raw Elements founded the reef-safe sunscreen movement and World Reef Day. The packaging is consistent with that position.
WHY IT'S SPECIAL
- 23% non-nano zinc oxide as the sole active: pure physical broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection, nothing absorbed into the skin or the ocean.
- Waterless, wax-based formula: cocoa butter, mango butter, and beeswax create a rich, protective base that seals in nourishment without synthetic binders or emulsifiers.
- Antioxidant-dense botanicals: organic green tea, black tea, and coffee bean extract continue defending the skin well past initial application.
- Water-resistant beyond 80 minutes: performance-grade protection that holds up to swimming, sweating, and outdoor use.
- Reef-safe, certified natural: free from oxybenzone, octinoxate, parabens, and synthetic fragrance.
- Bio-resin tube from sugarcane waste: carbon-negative packaging, fully recyclable, no virgin petroleum plastic.

THE BRAND
Raw Elements USA was founded by Brian Guadagno, a 25-year ocean rescue lifeguard who spent years testing every sunscreen on the market and found that none met the bar for both safety and performance. He spent the first years of the project researching and formulating from his own kitchen before bringing the brand to market in 2012. Raw Elements pioneered the reef-safe sunscreen movement, founded World Reef Day, and has eliminated single-use plastics across its packaging. Every formula is certified natural, Leaping Bunny certified, and built around one clear premise: protect people and the oceans they swim in.
