This plant-based balm is perfect for those scorching, heat-seeking days where a hat and cotton clothing are too cumbersome!
This handcrafted, portable sun-stick is formulated with sun-harmonizing botanicals that come to life under our star’s nourishing rays. Pure sunlight ignites the beneficial properties in these excellent elixirs that also smell like summer fun. High concentrations of sun-friendly flavonoids and carotenoids lend rich colors to some of these robust essences. This melody of tropical coconut, sweet flowers, warm spices, and verdant flora is a sensual invitation to long, languid summer days. Into these essences we have swirled balmy beeswax for its porous powers, rich cacao butter to soothe and moisturize thirsty skin and non-nanoparticle uncoated zinc oxide to shield skin on sunny days.
Fear not the sun! With Everybody Loves the Sunshine with Zinc – Beach Balm you are free to hit the beach, the trail, water play or the poolside lounge chair all day.
Use
Glide over the skin, paying special attention to your chin, nose and shoulders. Be sure to reapply at least every two hours and more often if you are sweating, swimming, or the UV index is high.
Frequently Asked Questions: Zinc Oxide
What is zinc oxide?
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is an awesome option as a sunblock. It is a white, inorganic compound created from metallic zinc. We use non-nanoparticle, uncoated, pharmaceutical-grade zinc oxide in Everybody Loves the Sunshine Zinc Beach Balm as it is the purest form of zinc available.
Unlike nano-particle minerals and chemical sun blocks, zinc doesn’t interfere with the health or respiration of the skin. The molecular size of zinc particles is too large to be absorbed by the skin. Instead, it sits on top and absorbs sun rays, protecting the skin.
Does the zinc oxide give skin a white sheen?
Yes. We do add botanical pigments, yet the zinc in Everybody Loves the Sunshine Zinc Beach Balm does give skin from the palest to the darkest tones a white sheen, and as of right now this is unavoidable. Yet, if a person is seeking a skin-wise and natural sun block, zinc oxide is still the very best option.
What about people of color?
People of color have used zinc paste for skin protection for hundreds of years. There are beautiful photos of women with darker skin in South East Asia with their faces veiled in white from the sheen of a zinc-rich paste called burak to keep their skin cool.
Zinc oxide will create a white or ashy cast on darker skin tones.
Is there a way to minimize the white sheen?
We have clients with the full range of skin tones who do not mind the white protection of zinc.
Yet, if you are not fond of the sheen or find it tricky to work with, you can minimize the sheen by putting some of the product in the palm of your hand, rub your hands together, and then rub it on the face and body.
If you still find this unsuitable, you could also add some tint with a bit of makeup pigment that matches your skin tone.
Are there other options?
Yes. You can always use Everybody Loves Sunshine (without zinc) and wear a hat if you need extra shade.

I UNDERESTIMATED THIS PRODUCT!
“I am sooo glad I gave this product a try! I purchased the 5 mL size because of the price just in case it didn’t work for me I wouldn’t feel bad about the money I spent. Also, there weren’t any reviews yet so I didn’t know what kind of results to expect.
Needless to say, I just purchased my second balm! I got the 5 mL size again because although it is the size of a chap stick a little goes a long way, and it lasted for 2 1/2 months. You can’t beat that!
My skin is pretty normal. I have some *** scars, and I usually break out a bit during my moon-time cycle. I use this product at night before I go to bed about 4x/week. I apply it the same way you would apply a highlighter on your face and then blend it all in with my finger. It looks the same way your face would look if you applied a sun care product on your face but after about an hr my skin absorbs the product.
When I wake up my skin looks flawless. It diminishes the appearance of the spot *** in size, redness, and I am noticing that the appearance of my scars are also diminishing!
You have to give this product a try! “

AMAZING PRODUCT
“I purchased this item based on one review. I am so pleased with this product. I bought the large size for my daughter and the next size down for myself. I regret not buying myself the larger one because this is all I will use from now on. This product feels so good on my skin (face and body) and I love the smell so much I could eat it. Thanks for continuing to make amazing clean, rejuvenating products. I love all your products that I have purchased and I have purchased many, You never disappoint.
Thank-you

BY FAR THE BEST “SUNSCREEN” I HAVE EVER USED.
Everybody loves the Sunshine with zinc Beachbalm! This is by far the best “sunscreen” I have ever used. we usually use the liquid form which has liquid essential oil‘s. But I bought this one to put on my kids and it works fabulous. I have not used commercial sunscreen and many, many years. It is filled with cancerous chemicals and toxic parabens. It also blocks our bodies absorption of vitamin D. So why would I even consider putting that on my children’s skin. This is by far the healthiest, safest version of sunscreen I have yet to come across. Thank you @livinglibations for making such amazing products!

My all time favorite “sunscreen” is the Everybody Loves the Sunshine oil. However, i always carry in my bag and this balm (i have it in the small size, so easy to use and to carry in your bag all day long) and it is amazing. I live in a very shinny and warm country and during summer time you need the best sun protection you can get. This is the most handy and effective product ever.????

So You probably know that both Living Libations and Dutch HealthStore have my heart ? Living Libations for making the most pure potent products, Dutch Health Store for not only making them available in EU, but also for the most impressive customer service – 27 follow up emails after order postage went wrong, anyone? ? Not only this product has the most amazing natural ingredients (ever heard of natural sunscreen with frankincense, sandalwood, turmeric, calendula & carrot seed oil) but I also discovered it is amazing at healing the dermatitis! Say what? All revealed here:

This is a great product. I took this on holiday to Florida and it really protect my face from any sunburn. The smell is amazing. This keeps your skin very hydrated. The only downside is you cant leave it in warm area for too long as it melts and it got very messy. But once I took it inside it solidified again and it was working great again. I think next time I will also purchase the liquid version for times when I am I’m the sun For long periods of time so I don’t have to worry about it melting. But this is a great product and ithink it is great for the sensitive areas like eye area and lips and ears. Would definitely purchase again
