Two Clean SPF Options That Soothe, Protect, and Actually Feel Good
If your sunscreen has ever left your skin greasy, stinging, or chalky white — or if you’ve looked at an ingredients list and thought “what even is that?” — you’re not alone.
Many conventional sunscreens rely on chemical filters like oxybenzone, octinoxate, avobenzone, and homosalate. These are known to trigger sensitivity, clog pores, disrupt hormones, and even damage coral reefs.
That’s why so many people are switching to natural mineral sunscreen — and why we created our own.
At Husk & Seed, we believe sun care should be as gentle and nourishing as the rest of your skincare routine. That’s why our facial SPFs are made with non-nano zinc oxide and pure, plant-based oils that protect and care for sensitive skin — without synthetic filters, water, or preservatives.
Why Mineral Sunscreen?
Unlike chemical sunscreens that absorb UV rays into the skin, mineral sunscreens sit on the surface and reflect them. We use non-nano zinc oxide, the most effective and skin-friendly broad-spectrum mineral filter available — proven to protect against both UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays.
All of our sunscreens are independently ISO-tested to UK standards, so you can trust their SPF level and UVA protection.
Two Facial SPFs, Two Skin-Friendly Formulas
We’ve created two facial sunscreen options to suit different skin types and preferences — both clean, calm, and completely free from common irritants.
SPF 30 – Neroli & Bergamot
-
Broad spectrum SPF 30 (lab tested at SPF 36)
-
Scented with non–photo-toxic neroli and bergamot essential oils
-
Leaves a soft, dewy finish — no white cast
-
Ideal for dry, normal, or combination skin
-
Suitable for daily wear under skincare or on its own
SPF 50 – Super Sensitive (Fragrance-Free)
-
Broad spectrum SPF 50
-
Essential oil free
-
Perfect for reactive, post-treatment, or hormonal skin
-
Richer texture, still non-greasy
-
Calms and protects even the most delicate skin
Both are packaged in refillable glass bottles with a pour spout and non-leak cap.
Hero Ingredients: What Makes Our Formula Different
We don’t use water, preservatives, or synthetic emulsifiers. Instead, every ingredient is there for a reason — to hydrate, calm, and protect your skin.
Non-Nano Zinc Oxide
Our only active SPF ingredient. Provides safe, broad-spectrum UVA + UVB protection without being absorbed into the skin. Ideal for sensitive, acne-prone, or allergy-prone skin.
Upcycled Raspberry Seed Oil
Cold-pressed from seeds discarded by the juice industry, this antioxidant-rich oil is packed with omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, helping to hydrate, calm inflammation, and protect against environmental stressors.
Jojoba Oil
A skin-mimicking oil that helps balance oil production, support the skin barrier, and deliver hydration without clogging pores.
Plum Kernel Oil (Upcycled)
Harvested from leftover fruit pits, this nutrient-dense oil is rich in vitamin E, beta-carotene, and protective fatty acids. It improves elasticity and leaves skin velvety-soft — with a subtle, naturally sweet scent.
Water-Free. Preservative-Free. Filler-Free.
Most traditional sunscreens are up to 70% water — which requires preservatives, stabilisers, and synthetic texture agents to keep them shelf-stable.
We don’t do that. Our formulas are:
-
100% water-free
-
Preservative- and fragrance-free
-
Long-lasting and highly concentrated (up to 60 uses per bottle)
-
Kind to your skin and to the planet
