Hawaii's only locally made, plastic-free sunscreen approved by the FDA. Little Hands Hawai'i was created to prevent people from using cancer-causing chemicals on their skin and reefs.
The 1oz stick is perfect for a sunny hike, or day at the beach. Available in both white and tinted (tinted with iron oxide minerals).
Conveniently packaged in a very sturdy and biodegradable push-up stick.
With a recent peer reviewed study stating that 78 common sunscreens were found to have carcinogens in them (including SunBum, Banana Boat, and Neutrogenia), using safe and natural sunscreen now is important as ever.
Around 5,000 tons of sunscreen enter into our oceans annually. That’s the weight of about 78 humpback whales!
Even at extremely low concentrations, chemicals like oxybenzone found in sunscreens can be very harmful for corals and other marine life. It’s part of the reason scientists expect nearly all coral reefs to disappear within the next 20 years. With coral playing such an important part in maintaining the health of the oceans, this is a hard fact to hear.
Global plastic pollution is such a sad problem that is out of sight and out of mind for most people. Knowing that plastic waste is expected to almost TRIPLE by 2060, choosing a plastic free sunscreen is one thing we can do to help be a part of the solution and not the problem.
