Built for the surf

Built for conditions where regular sunscreen washes off. The Extreme Zinc Stick survives repeated water immersion, heavy sweat, wind, and hours of direct UV — making it the go-to for surfers, open-water swimmers, skiers, and anyone who pushes their sunscreen to the limit.

The 15g format gives you 25% more product than the Original (12g) stick. The advanced UV filter system grips harder and lasts longer in extreme conditions. It sets to a solid, clean finish — not greasy, not oily. Closer to a cream makeup stick than a liquid sunscreen.

The beauty tones (Tan, Bronze, Coral Pink) double as makeup — use Tan as foundation, Bronze as bronzer, Coral Pink as blush. These aren't novelty colors; they're genuine skin-tone matches that happen to deliver serious UV protection. Bold colors (Blue Bay, Purple Sky, Orange Sun, Red Flash) are statement shades for athletes, festival-goers, and anyone who refuses to hide their sunscreen.

Who it's for

Surfers, skiers, athletes, beachgoers, lifeguards, festival-goers, and anyone who spends long hours in the sun and needs their sunscreen to keep up. The beauty tones (Tan, Bronze, Coral Pink) also suit those wanting a natural or glam look with serious protection. Red Flash, Blue Bay, Purple Sky, and Orange Sun are bold statement colors.

FAQs

What makes the Extreme Zinc Stick different from the standard Zinc Stick?

Three things. First, it's 15g vs 12g — 25% more product. Second, the formula is engineered for extreme conditions with advanced UV filters for maximum durability through waves, sweat, wind, and prolonged sun exposure. Third, it stays put through repeated water immersion where standard sunscreen would wash off.

What are the UV filters in this formula?

The Extreme Zinc Stick contains zinc oxide and titanium dioxide (mineral filters) plus chemical UV filters including Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Octocrylene, and Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate. This hybrid combination provides maximum durability and water resistance. It is not reef safe — for a fully mineral reef-safe option, see the Pure Zinc range.

How long does it stay on in water?

Rated for 4 hours of water resistance. It's specifically formulated to survive repeated submersion — surfing, bodyboarding, open-water swimming — not just poolside splashing.

Which colors blend in, and which ones stand out?

Tan and Bronze blend into most skin tones for discreet protection. Shell White gives the classic bold zinc look. Coral Pink works beautifully as a blush. Blue Bay, Purple Sky, Orange Sun, and Red Flash are bold, eye-catching colors meant to be seen. Many customers use Tan as foundation, Bronze as bronzer, and Coral Pink as blush — it's sun protection that doubles as makeup.

Is the stick hard to apply in cold conditions?

Like any wax-based stick, it performs best at room temperature. In cold weather (skiing, early mornings), press the stick against your skin for a few seconds to warm it before swiping. The formula softens with body heat and goes on smoothly.

Who is this actually for?

Anyone who spends extended time in the sun and needs their sunscreen to keep up: surfers, skiers, beachgoers, athletes, lifeguards, festival-goers, paddlers, and anyone who wants the larger 15g stick with maximum staying power. Plenty of people choose it for the bold colors and superior durability — even for everyday use.

Is the Extreme stick safe for children?

Yes. The fun colors make it popular with kids. However, for very young or sensitive skin, the Pure Zinc range may be a better choice — it uses only non-nano zinc oxide with zero chemical UV filters.

Will the bold colors stain my clothes?

The colors are designed to stay on your skin, not transfer to fabric. Let the stick set for a minute or two before putting on hats or clothing. The formula washes off with soap and water at the end of the day.
