Read more about Polyhydroxystearic Acid here. Why do we use it? Zinc Oxide particles have a tendency to clump on a microscopic level. This can cause holes in the protection that a sunscreen promises. Polyhydroxystearic Acid is used to stabilize our sunscreen and create smooth even coverage which ultimately protects your skin better than ever! Best of all, it is plant derived and it is non-toxic!

Great natural sunscreen

I was looking for a natural sunscreen that was truly natural - not just advertised as so! After doing some research I stumbled upon Butterbean as it was highly recommended! I have been very pleased with the product. It was easy to put on, worked well, and I had peace of mind putting this on my whole family - including my little ones!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are Butterbean products good for sensitive skin?

Butterbean Organics strives to make products that are safe for every customer. By packing our products with nutrients and antioxidants instead of harsh chemicals, we are able to provide customers with clean, skin-nourishing items that are perfect for anyone. The natural and botanical ingredients that make up our product line provide a pleasant, uplifting smell that any person would prefer over supermarket products.

Q: Is Butterbean sunscreen waterproof?

No sunscreen is 100% waterproof. Water-resistant means that the sunscreen retains its original SPF after 40 minutes in warm moving water; very water-resistant means after 80 minutes. Laboratory testing has provided the data that all of our sunscreens are very water-resistant for 80 minutes! Please remember to reapply after swimming.

Q: Is Butterbean Sunscreen tested for SPF, water-resistant, and Broad Spectrum claims?

Yes! Our organic skincare products are FDA compliant and have been tested on human subjects with FDA-approved laboratory procedures. Our product claims are SPF30 sunscreen, 80-minutes of water resistance, and UVA/UVB.

Q: How do I apply Butterbean Sunscreen?

Butterbean organic sunscreens are third-party tested to ensure an SPF of 30. SPF is dependent on the proper application of the sunscreen. In the FDA SPF test, approximately a full ounce of sunscreen is used to cover an adult body. It is important when using mineral sunscreens that you apply enough sunscreen to cover the skin well. Applying half the amount of sunscreen can leave you with a significantly lower SPF. Remember, mineral sunscreen sits on the surface of the skin. If the sunscreen is rubbed off by towel drying, sand, surf, sweat, or other, protection will be decreased. Apply a thick layer and rub in. Reapply at least every 2 hours.

Q: Is Butterbean organic sunscreen greasy?

Butterbean sunscreen is smooth and easily absorbed into the skin. Made with coconut, olive, and jojoba, these oils are known for the ability to penetrate into the skin without leaving an oily feeling or texture. Our SPF 30 sunscreen is an excellent go-to for a non-greasy moisturizer.

Q: How long will your organic sunscreen stay fresh?

Butterbean organic sunscreen does not contain any chemical preservatives. Our sunscreen is also anhydrous, meaning no water is contained in the product, and the oils we use are stable.
Each of our products has an expiration date stamped on the container and our products are good for 2 years. However please note that water, dirt, and other external elements in the container will introduce bacteria and might affect the shelf life.

Q: What are the benefits of using sunscreen?

Using organic sunscreen lotion helps to reduce your chances of skin cancer and early skin-aging. Additionally, our sunscreen skincare products are healthier for your skin and body than other greasy products that contain harmful chemicals.

Q: Does sunscreen darken your skin?

No, our sunscreen skincare does not darken your skin. Our products are chemical-free and natural, so they don’t damage your skin like other products might. Applying our sunscreen each time you are outdoors helps to protect your skin from harmful rays.

Q: Is it good to use sunscreen every day?

A chemical-free sunscreen lotion or sunscreen cream should be applied anytime you are outdoors. This helps to protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sun.

Q: How does sunscreen work?

Our SPF 30 sunscreen works by blocking and absorbing both UVB and UVA rays.

Q: How much sunscreen to use on face?

It’s recommended that you apply approximately half of a teaspoon amount of sunscreen SPF30 to your face.

Q: How long does sunscreen last?

Sunscreen 30SPF should be reapplied every 2 hours and after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, and immediately after towel drying. For children under 6 months, ask a doctor for specific instructions.
