Happy Ocean Kids Mineral Sunscreen SPF 45 — Travel Size 2.5 oz, Reef-Safe & Water-Resistant

Happy Ocean Kids Mineral Sunscreen SPF 45 is a reef-safe, non-toxic zinc-oxide sunscreen formulated for babies and toddlers that delivers broad-spectrum UV protection and water-resistant performance in a travel-friendly tube.

Designed for parents who prioritize clean ingredients and ocean safety, this children’s mineral sunscreen uses non-nano zinc oxide as its active ingredient and a formula enriched with chamomile, calendula, green tea, and aloe vera. The sunscreen is EWG Verified, free from oxybenzone, octinoxate, parabens, sulfates, and synthetic fragrances, and packaged in USDA Certified Biobased sugarcane resin for reduced environmental impact. A Wet Boost technology increases protection after water exposure, and the 2.5 oz tube fits easily into diaper bags and carry-ons.
