STREAM 2 SEA Mineral Sunscreen SPF 45 — Every Day Active 2.5 fl oz | 19% Zinc Oxide, Reef-Safe & 80 min Water-Resistant

STREAM 2 SEA Every Day Active Mineral Sunscreen SPF 45 is a reef-safer, sport-ready zinc-oxide sunscreen that delivers broad-spectrum protection for face and body while remaining biodegradable and water resistant.

This lightweight, non-nano 19% zinc oxide formula was developed by a cosmetic chemist who dives—the result is a clean, sport-focused sunscreen that’s independently tested for aquatic safety and packaged in sustainable sugarcane resin. It’s designed to provide reliable UVA/UVB coverage, stay on through swimming and sweating, and be gentle enough for sensitive skin types.

How does this sunscreen protect my skin during active outdoor use?

The primary active ingredient is 19% non-nano zinc oxide, a mineral blocker that reflects and scatters UVA and UVB rays. The formula uses a wet-boost system that helps the sunscreen maintain effectiveness after water exposure, making it suitable for activities like surfing, snorkeling, and trail running.

• Broad-spectrum SPF 45 from 19% non-nano zinc oxide
• Wet Boost technology enhances performance after water contact
• Water resistant for up to 80 minutes per application
• Designed to stay put during sweat, ocean swim, and pool laps

Is this sunscreen safe for reefs and aquatic life?

Stream 2 Sea products are formulated to minimize harm to marine environments and are independently tested for aquatic safety on coral larvae and fish. The formula excludes oxybenzone and octinoxate and is biodegradable in both freshwater and saltwater.

• Aquatic-life tested and compliant with reef protection regulations
• Biodegradable ingredients that break down in marine and freshwater
• Free from oxybenzone, octinoxate, parabens, and sulfates
• Sustainable sugarcane resin packaging to reduce plastic impact

Will this sunscreen work on sensitive or acne-prone skin?

The Every Day Active formula is non-comedogenic and includes calming, skin-friendly botanicals like organic aloe vera, jojoba esters, green tea, tulsi, and turmeric. It is designed to be gentle for daily face and body use, though patch testing is recommended for very reactive skin.

• Non-comedogenic mineral base to help avoid pore-clogging
• Soothing plant extracts to calm irritation and dryness
• Free from harsh additives such as gluten, parabens, and sulfates
• EWG-verified ingredients list for ingredient transparency

How should I apply and reapply this sunscreen for best results?

Apply a small, even amount to each exposed area and rub in until blended for invisible coverage. Reapply after towel drying, heavy perspiration, or every 80 minutes when swimming; increase frequency for prolonged sun exposure.

• Use a generous amount—don’t skimp on coverage of face and body
• Reapply after 80 minutes of water exposure or heavy sweating
• Store in a cool place; one 2.5 fl oz tube lasts multiple outings
• Ideal for layering under makeup or over moisturizers on the face
