Reef Safe Sunscreen

[DVDmedic]

Hello,

 

If you’re looking for reef safe sunscreen, I was able to find one at Superstore.  It met the guidelines of the Save the Reef website.  https://savethereef.org/about-reef-save-sunscreen.html

 

It’s Live Clean Sport mineral sunscreen.  It’s not cheap at $17, but is one of the cheaper ones out there.  Bonus points for being made in Canada.  But is a 113g size, which might be an issue if you want to fly with it in your carry-on.  https://www.realcanadiansuperstore.ca/suncare-mineral-sunscreen-lotion-sport-spf-45/p/21174496_EA

Thanks for this information.  We are looking for one for this and next year and buying Canadian is a no brainer.

Thanks for this excellent tip.  We were in the ABC islands in January when I came across information that stated we should be using only reef approved sunscreen.  Had never heard of this type of sunscreen and glad that Superstore has it.  Thanks.  Now I know the reason I have been accumulating those President Optimum points, I can use it on that sunscreen. I usually buy LaRoche Posay sunscreen and that is over $40 bucks.  I am so so sensitive, just like the reefs.

DH and I were in Hawaii this past January. We used Sun Bum almost exclusively this time round and really liked it!

Past experiences with other reef safe (All Good and Blue Lizard) were like mud.
