Our story
How Saltblock started
A custom formula takes time we would rather spend learning from surfers in the water. Once the glide and four-hour hold brief is proven with real sessions, we move to a formula locked to our own spec.
SPF 50, non-nano zinc oxide80-minute water resistance, tested0.5 oz twist-up, fits a wetsuit pocketUntinted, fragrance-free, face and bodyReef-safe formula, no oxybenzone
A sunscreen claim you can read the test file for.
Saltblock is one stick, one formula, one size, sold direct and through surf shops. We publish what the lab tested and what it did not, so you know what four hours means before you buy.
Why Saltblock
Built for the session
Formulated and tested to hold its stated SPF and 80-minute water resistance, not to survive a marketing deck.
Non-nano zinc
Mineral filter only. Untinted, fragrance-free, and made for face and body in one pass.
Pocket format
A 0.5 oz twist-up that sits in a wetsuit key pocket or boardshort pocket without bulk.
Reef-safe by design
No oxybenzone or octinoxate. The ingredient list is on this page in full, not summarized.

Questions
Waitlist members hear about every change first.
Does four hours mean I never reapply?
No. The stick carries an SPF 50 claim with 80-minute water resistance, which is what the test file supports. Four hours is the session we built the format and the base for. Reapply after toweling off, heavy sweating, or a long hold underwater.
What is in it?
Non-nano zinc oxide in a water-resistant base, untinted and fragrance-free. The full ingredient list goes on this page and on the stick before launch. If a batch changes, the list changes with it.
Is it reef-safe?
It uses a non-nano mineral filter and contains no oxybenzone or octinoxate. Reef-safe is a contested term across jurisdictions, so we list ingredients rather than lean on the phrase alone.
Will it leave a white cast?
Untinted non-nano zinc will show on some skin tones. That is a known tradeoff of this launch formula, and it is on the list for the custom formula brief. We will not claim otherwise.
