Overview
A 1 oz travel size facial sunscreen from Sun Bum rated SPF 50 broad spectrum, formulated with zinc oxide and homosalate plus vitamin E, and compliant with Hawaii's 104 Act by leaving out octinoxate and oxybenzone.
At 1 oz, this is a carry on friendly size rather than an everyday household bottle, which suits travel or trial use more than daily year round wear. The formula combines a mineral filter with a chemical one, and it's built specifically for the face rather than general body application.
- SPF 50 broad spectrum protection
- Hawaii 104 Act compliant formula
- Contains vitamin E
- 1 oz travel size
Who it's for
Fits people who want a compact SPF 50 facial sunscreen for travel or for complying with reef related chemical restrictions in places like Hawaii. Less suited to anyone wanting a full size bottle for regular daily use.

Performance notes
SPF 50 broad spectrum formulas combine multiple UV filters, here zinc oxide alongside homosalate, to block a high share of UVA and UVB rays when applied at full coverage and reapplied roughly every two hours in the sun. The paraben free, water resistant lotion format is built to work under makeup or worn alone on the face.
