Introducing Sun Bum, AKA Trust The Bum Sunscreen!  Created by surf enthusiasts, Sunbum’s range of cruelty-free and vegan sunscreen was created to protect their friends and family from the sun. Driven by their ethos ‘work less, live more’ Sun Bum focus on a healthy work-life balance, breaking up their working day with ping-pong and surfing the waves at their beachside offices in California and Florida.

Using their own products daily at the beach, Sun Bum really put their sunscreen through its paces, testing it to the extreme in the surf and high temperatures to make sure it works effectively, preventing sunburn and keeping your skin safe, nourished and deliciously smelling.

Vegan And Cruelty-Free Sunscreen

Caring deeply about their friends, family, the planet, and everything living on it, Sun Bum ensure that all their products are vegan, cruelty-free, gluten-free, Hawaii Reef Compliant, paraben and sulfate-free, guaranteeing to keep your skin safe while minimising their impact on your skin and the environment.

Trust The Bum

Whether you’re looking to protect yourself or your children, or whether you want to nourish your skin after a long day in the sun and enhance your tan, Sun Bum’s range of products has you covered, guaranteeing that you can Trust The Bum whatever you choose. From face sticks and browning oils to cooling sprays and high-factor lotions, there’s something for everyone.

Protect The Groms® Nonprofit

Shocked by the discovery that most schools in the US don’t allow sunscreen, Sun Bum started their own non-profit organisation, Protect The Groms®, partnering with the public and elementary schools to keep children’s skin safe.

Adulthood skin cancer is often a result of the burns we get as children, so protecting children’s skin when they’re young is crucially important in the prevention of future skin cancer.

Hoping to raise awareness of skin cancer and minimise the number of skin cancer cases, Sun Bum’s non-profit organisation provides playground shade structures, education on sun safety and sunscreen stations for children who live and play in the sun, keeping their delicate skin safe for a brighter future.

Hawaii Act 104 Reef Compliant

Did you know that in order to keep their reefs safe, beautiful and thriving, Hawaii prohibited the sale of non-prescription sunscreens that contain oxybenzone and octinoxate? With this in mind, Sun Bum omits these harmful ingredients from its planet-friendly formulas, meeting the requirements for Hawaii’s reef complaint regulations.

Ensuring they use the most effective, skin-friendly ingredients, Sun Bum create both mineral and non-mineral formulas to keep your skin safe.

Mineral sunscreens utilise physical active ingredients like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide that create a sunscreen barrier on your skin, blocking UV rays by reflecting them away from your skin. They’re a great option for reactive and sensitive skin.

Non-Mineral sunscreens use chemicals to absorb the sun’s rays, converting them to heat, before reflecting them into the atmosphere. Whether you opt for mineral or non-mineral you know your skin is protected.
