100% MINERAL PROTECTION

We decided to make Banana Bright Sunscreen a mineral sunscreen because when it comes to SPF, mineral sunscreens are known to be gentler on sensitive skin. Chemical sunscreens are absorbed into the skin, while physical sunscreens sit on the skin’s surface, creating a physical barrier to reflect UVA and UVB rays. Physical sunscreens are also known for being better for the environment. Plus, Ole loves physical sunscreen, himself, so naturally he wanted to create his own.

Zinc oxide is the protective ingredient in Banana Bright Sunscreen. It is broad spectrum, meaning it protects skin from a broad range of rays on the light spectrum. In protecting skin from those rays, our mineral sunscreen is also helping prevent dark spots and other signs of visible aging due to sun exposure.

POWERED BY VITAMIN C

Banana Bright Sunscreen is a beautiful sunscreen, but it is so much more than that! Clinical-grade vitamin C brightens your entire complexion by 26%* and defends skin against damaging free radicals,
such as pollution. You probably know that we are BIG fans of vitamin C and its role in this formula makes us love it even more. While zinc oxide protects, vitamin C corrects! Using Banana Bright Sunscreen overtime, you’ll notice any dull or uneven skin becoming more illuminated and glowy. That’s why we say its sunscreen, but smarter!

A SUNNY EXPERIENCE

Banana Bright Sunscreen feels good, smells good, and looks good! No need to worry about that sunblock smell or greasy texture at all. The texture is somewhere between a cream and a lotion, which gives it a subtle blurring effect. Upon application your skin will feel instantly hydrated and any fine lines and wrinkles will appear smoother. This smooth texture wears beautifully under makeup, but we recommend letting it absorb completely before you go in with foundation. No makeup? No problem. Banana Bright Sunscreen leaves a natural soft-matte finish on its own.

As far as scent goes, Banana Bright doesn’t smell like the memories of floaties and chlorine—it’s a sophisticated yet playful citrus scent that smells like you are the kind of person that does pilates and puts SPF on every day. Because you are, right? (;

Banana Bright Sunscreen is our answer to your many, many, many, many, SPF requests. It’s been a longtime coming, but we wanted to get it JUST RIGHT for you. We hope you love it. We also hope you wear it every day. And apply again in two hours. And again, two hours later. <3
