The American Academy of Dermatology recommends using sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher.
The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends SPF 15 every day you leave your house and SPF 30 if you plan to be in the sun most of the day
The FDA, World Health Organization and the CDC recommend SPF 15 or higher, and to reapply that every two hours.
All of those authorities agree that you should be using a broad-spectrum sunscreen, which protects your skin against both UVA and UVB rays. Make sure any sunscreen you buy clearly states that on the bottle.

Featured Ingredient
Found in all our sunscreens, caprylic/capric triglyceride is derived from coconut oil.
At the molecular level, caprylic triglyceride never goes rancid and is completely stable.
This ingredient has a silky feel to it that leaves your skin feeling smooth and non-greasy, and helps disperse the minerals evenly on the skin.
Why Use Mineral Sunscreen
You Eat Natural Foods, So Shouldn’t Your Sunscreen Be Natural, Too?
In today’s world, it seems like we constantly hear messages about “going natural,” but what are the actual benefits of a natural sunscreen?
The conventional sunscreen you have purchased your whole life works just fine at preventing sunburn, but take a look at the ingredients on the bottle of last summer’s sunblock.
If you find ingredients such as oxybenzone, octinoxate, or even isobutane, you may want to consider the purchase of Goddess Garden’s mineral sunscreen instead.
Reef Safe
All Goddess Garden Sunscreens are Reef Safe
Some of the most common chemical sunscreens, oxybenzone and octinoxate, have been linked to the destruction of our coral reefs.
This damage can occur even at very low concentrations of these chemicals in the water.
Because of this, they’ve even been banned in placed like Hawaii, Key West, Bonaire and the Republic of Palau.
Minerals, on the other hand, are reef safe, so do not harm reef environments and the vast life they support.
We never use toxic or harmful chemicals, so all our sunscreens are completely reef-safe!
Certified Organic
All Goddess Garden ingredients are Certified Organic wherever possible.
Pure minerals offer powerful UV protection, but they can never be considered “organic” ingredients since they’ve never been alive.
This means mineral sunscreens (whether made by Goddess Garden or not) will never be 100% organic.
Leaping Bunny Certified
By 1996, ‘cruelty-free’ shopping had become popular, but it was also confusing, sometimes misleading, and ultimately frustrating. Companies had begun designing their own bunny logos, abiding by their own definition of ‘cruelty-free’ or ‘animal friendly’ without the participation of animal protection groups.
In response, eight national animal protection groups banded together to form the Coalition for Consumer Information on Cosmetics (CCIC). The CCIC promotes a single comprehensive standard and an internationally recognized Leaping Bunny Logo. We work with companies to help make shopping for animal-friendly products easier and more trustworthy.
Certified B Corporation
Certified B Corporations are a new kind of business that balances purpose and profit.
They are legally required to consider the impact of their decisions on their workers, customers, suppliers, community, and the environment.
This is a community of leaders, driving a global movement of people using business as a force for good.
Recyclable
Goddess Garden products are recyclable.
Simply make sure the bottle is empty and clean, then recycle as normal.

In The Press
Rachel –
I bought this sunscreen in December 2020. It expired April 2021, so I wasn’t able to even use it through the summer. Given that most sunscreen is good for 3 years after the manufacture date, this seller is offering what seems to be old product. I love the sunscreen. It has only natural ingredients, protects well, and doesn’t make my sensitive, acne-prone skin break out. I want to buy again but I am scared to go through Amazon for fear of getting a nearly-expired product again.

When given a choice, we have to protect the oceans, right? By buying this brand, you’re also protecting yourself from unsafe chemicals on your face and body and offensive perfume scents. This is the best sunscreen I have found. I prefer a neutral sunscreen to tinted sunscreens to avoid makeup rubbing off on clothes and hats. The creaminess of the sunscreen enables it to be blended in so that your skin is only slightly lighter in color (as with most sunscreens) and gives skin a nice glow.
