About Us
Like many parents, we just wanted to protect our kids. Our son had severe eczema, and every sunscreen we tried made it worse — burning, stinging, and triggering flare-ups.
While digging through old family photos, we saw Kari's great-grandfather fishing under the Florida sun — long sleeves, wide hat, no chemical sunscreens in sight. It reminded us humans haven't lost our ability to live in the sun — we've just lost our connection to how we did it safely.
So we built what didn't exist: Food-grade zinc sunscreen tough enough for professional guides, gentle enough for our own kid. No chemicals. No compromises. Just mineral armor that works when it matters most.

- Sun exposure is real. It accelerates aging and long-term skin damage.
- Sunscreen can be armor.
- Families, athletes, and outdoor pros deserve sun defense without compromise.
We Reject
