Shwally Zinc & Avocado Mineral SunBalm
Born under the Southern California sun, our Sunbalm was created out of necessity. After discovering that most sunscreens were packed with cheap chemicals and hidden side effects, we set out to make something better- a 100% edible, truly natural sun protection made only with ingredients you can trust.
Formulated with just four organic ingredients, grass-fed tallow, avocado oil, unrefined beeswax, and non-nano zinc oxide, our Sunbalm delivers sun protection the way nature intended. Zinc oxide (a physical barrier protection) works by reflecting UV rays before they enter the body, while other chemical sunscreens need to seep into the skin to offer protection, exposing our bodies to harmful ingredients.
When it comes to sun care, less is more and natural is superior.
Ingredients: Tallow from 100% grass-fed and pasture-raised cows, Organic avocado pulp oil, Non-nano zinc oxide, Organic unrefined beeswax
- Shake well, apply liberally 15 minutes before sun exposure.
- Re-apply after swimming, and after every 2 hours.
The Sunscreen That's Safe For The Whole Family
When it comes to most sunscreens we're forced to pick from extreme white cast natural formulas (that leave you burned by the afternoon) or protection loaded with hormone-disrupting chemicals.
The Shwally Sunbalm rejects both options, with just four 100% edible, organic ingredients: grass-fed tallow, avocado oil, unrefined beeswax, and non-nano zinc oxide. That’s it. Nothing you couldn’t spread on toast.
The zinc is the hero ingredient here, acting as a physical barrier that sits on top and bounces UV rays away (no absorption, no bloodstream, no sketchy side effects). Tallow and avocado oil feed the skin the exact fats it’s made of, while also making the balm easy to spread (zinc can be thick and drying on it's own).
Goes on creamy, blends sheer on most skin tones, stays water-resistant for hours, and smells faintly like honey instead of chemical junk.
Frequently Asked Questions

Naturally, yes. Beeswax and zinc help the balm stay put while swimming or sweating, so you stay protected longer without reapplying every hour. As zinc oxide is a physical sunscreen, we still recommend applying as you see sunscreen fading throughout your day.
