Key Actives
Zinc Oxide: provides physical broad spectrum sun protection without the skin irritation or hormone disruption found in chemical sunscreens. Camellia Seed Oil: a light-weight phyto active oil abundant in fatty acids to calm and hydrate skin.

If you are used to using conventional chemical formulas, you may notice this natural sunscreen differs as it does rely on creating a physical barrier on top of the skin to protect you from UV rays. As a result it takes a little more time to massage into the skin, however, we believe doing this is well worth the benefits of non-toxic sun protection.

This natural sunscreen is gentle enough to share with your best friend who’s nose has a tendency to catch the sun .
So lovely to hear, Jacqueline! We’re thrilled our natural sunscreen is gentle enough to share, besties deserve sun-safe skin too!
I love the scent it’s moisture and that it’s just a little bit oily. I’ve been using it on my face and my babies for 5+ years.

A sunscreen that is quite different, effective and reliable. Very moisturising for my dry mature skin giving it a lovely glow. It takes a bit longer to apply/rub in but ensures excellent coverage for times when you loose your hat on a boating trip!!

We brought the Edible Beauty Basking Beauty Natural Sunscreen SPF 50 with us to La Union, Philippines, and it was perfect for the strong beach sun! It’s thick enough to really protect your skin, but still feels nice and smooth. It stayed on even after swimming, and I love the natural scent—so fresh and not overpowering. Plus, it’s reef-friendly, which makes it even better. Definitely bringing this on every beach trip from now on!

We take pride in creating a product that not only protects your skin, but also the environment. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to enjoy our sunscreen. Have a beautiful day!
This feels really healthy on my skin and is lovely once it sinks in, my only challenge is that it is quite greasy /oily for the first couple of hours until everything’s absorbed.
Thanks, Nat! I'm glad to hear that the Basking Beauty Natural Sunscreen feels healthy on your skin. It’s true that it can feel a bit greasy initially since it’s a physical sunscreen that creates a protective barrier. Many customers love it for its natural formula, and we recommend using a pea-sized amount for best results. If you prefer a less dewy finish, try setting it with your favourite mineral powder. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Really happy with this beautiful sunscreen! It is not oily and doesn't leave a white streak over my skin. This summer is super hot and I needed this nearly every day as I am outdoors alot. A tiny bit is sufficient. The sunscreen is creamy and has a faint scent and glides over the skin beautifully and effortlessly. Most of all, I have peace of mind in knowing it is non-toxic and safe for my skin so it just feels great to be using this to protect myself. It is highly recommended and I will be buying more!
This sunscreen is my absolute favourite - I think I’m into my 6th tube! I have a 2 year old and it’s fantastic for the whole family, goes on easily, smells great and best of all it doesn’t have nasty chemicals.
I didn't notice there are a lot of ingredients containing oil such as castor oil, coconut oi, etc,...It's super sticky to apply on face. So after that, I changed to apply it on my neck, hands, and legs, and the results are great. It has the lemon smell which is very delightful and a pinkish to make my skin look healthier.
Easy to apply and smells wonderful. Perfect for under makeup or a quick over the hands to keep them protected.
We use this sunscreen for our daily sunscreen during summertime at the beach. My niece loved it so much that she asked for it for Xmas!
I love how it's hydrating, as I've got very dry skin and it also blends in quite well too. A big bonus is that I'm not putting harmful chemicals on my skin.
Easy to spread
Sunscreen is so nice, the smell is lovely. Perfect under makeup.
I have been using this fabulous sunscreen for about 2 years and I wear it EVERY day as I live near the beach. It glides onto my skin and is not sticky at all. Even my dogs love it - as soon as they smell me applying it, they know it's a sign they are about to go for a walk on the beach.- see photo
Sadly, I was diagnosed with Melanoma a few months ago at 32yrs old... as you can imagine, smothering my face with commercial sunscreens all day has created horrendous outbreaks and has been a real blow to the self-esteem.
As soon as this sunscreen was released, I knew it was what my skin desperately needed and I couldn't wait to get my hands on it (thanks for the Bday voucher EB!!)
I LOVE IT
Not only do I get the protection I need but it's also so kind to my skin and the outbreaks have finally started to settle.
The zesty scent is great emotional support too, what a winner! Highly recommend
Tried this on a whim, really pleased with it. My little one loves how it smells, my partner commented he noticed it worked well in the surf and didn't sting his eyes. I love that is nourishing to the skin and kept us all sun safe! It smells divine, doesn't white-out skin (small sample in pics) and is reef safe. Winning all round! 👌
I enjoy using Basking Beauty Natural Sunscreen for our family when we spend long days in the sun. It goes on with ease, smells lovely but more importantly I am not adding unnecessary chemicals to their skin that the body has to process. I buy Basking Beauty Natural Sunscreen SPF50 because my little ones who attend Daycare require SPF50 when they venture outside. With this product, I feel they are putting something on their delicate skin that can handle long days in the sun while caring for the long-term health of their skin.
Hi Kerrie, thank you so much for sharing your lovely experience! We're delighted to hear that our sunscreen helps keep your little ones protected and happy in the sun. We truly appreciate your support and trust in our product. Wishing you and your family many sunny adventures ahead!
This SPF is safe , very natural also hydrates the skin no nasties or chemicals it’s my favourite.
Hi there! We're so glad to hear you love our Basking Beauty Natural Sunscreen SPF50. Thank you for sharing your experience!
Questions & answers
We have chosen the highest quality zinc oxide that we have been able to source for our sunscreen. We use microfine or micronised particles in our sunscreen. Microfine particles are smaller than those used in conventional white zinc sunscreens, however are larger than nano-particles- usually in the range of 100 to 2500 nanometres. Note that nano particles are smaller than 100 nanometres. We do not use nano particles in the sunscreen.
Yes definitely! Mineral makeup used over the sunscreen is fantastic for creating a matt finish.
It will not impact the performance of the sunscreen.
Basking Beauty Natural Sunscreen blends into your skin so it won’t leave a white residue. Suitable for all skin types.
The sunscreen can definitely help with blue light due to the zinc oxide which provides "physical" protection against UV and HEV rays.
The other product I recommend is our Glowing Skin Smoothe Serum as that works as an "anti-pollution" product providing a high level of antioxidants to combat free radical damage from blue light.
