Back in the mid-1990s, our founder Bill Whyte worked as a carpenter. He worked hard, and so did his hands. They would often split and crack in the frigid New England winters. One night, seeking a soothing solution, he mixed up some beeswax and olive oil to create a simple herbal balm. It helped his hands so much, he decided to share it with everyone he knew - and the rest, as they say, is Badger history. How Did We Get Our Start?

Review: Clean clean clean - I am allergic to sunscreens, apparently - annoying. This one has only a few ingredients, nothing weird and chemically, no need to cross-reference every incomprehensible word to see what it is and how it might mess up my face. Because zinc sits on top of the skin, it isn’t an irritant, but effectively reflects the sun - great. I tried Badger a long time ago when my kids were tiny and to be honest I didn’t like it enough to repurchase. I found it chalky and hard to spread. But someone recommended I try it again and I did, mainly because I couldn't find anything else like it (most of the zinc formulas have a bunch of other weird stuff in them). Badger must have improved the formula in the years since because it’s great now. It leaves no cast (granted, I am fair-skinned) and it feels wonderful. It’s slick in a nice way and feels *almost* greasy but it doesn’t leave any shine and actually works really well as a primer under foundation. I love it so much. It’s one of those products where I feel motivated to write a review so that enough people buy it that it doesn’t get discontinued (ie this review is self-serving). So get yourself some Badger spf, please ;)
Review: My everyday - I am always buying new sunscreens and trying to try to solve for getting myself to actually use it every day. I've really liked products from Elta MD, Babyganics, and, of course, Badger. My hot take: This is my go-to daily sunscreen. It meets 4.5/5 of my criteria. TL;DR My priorities with a sunscreen, in order of importance, are: 1. Adequate protection - at least SPF 30. I prefer SPF 50 though. 2. Mineral ingredients - zinc or titanium oxide. 3. Texture of the sunscreen - I'm fine with a little white cast, but I don't like chalkiness. 4. Convenience of application - so I'll actually use it. 5. Sustainability - I try to use less plastic and aerosol cans stress me out (inhalation, hard to recycle). Badger Sport Mineral Sunscreen Tin - SPF 40 / Badger Adventure Sport Mineral Sunscreen Tin - SPF 50 - Mineral ingredients: uncoated zinc oxide 25% - All natural ingredients and very safe for our Earth's waters. It's just the uncoated zinc oxide (active) and sunflower oil, beeswax, and sunflower vitamin E (inactives). No ingredient names I have to google. And 98% of ingredients are organic if you care about that (I don't really). - Protective SPF 40 and 50 available. Water resistant 80 mins. - Goes on easy once you've warmed it slightly either by rubbing the product onto your fingers or letting it sit in the sun for a couple minutes. - I can feel this sunscreen. They aren't kidding about using beeswax. This stuff is a bit sticky! However, I appreciate that I can physically feel if I've put enough product on different sections of my body. It takes a bit to absorb, but once it does, it's very moisturizing and feels nice. - Comes in an adorable metal tin that is so easy to reuse or recycle. It makes me think of Altoids tins and how some folks reuse those/create art with them. - Very compact, takes up almost on room. - Decent price at $5.62/oz. I paid $26.99 for a pack of two tins. Each tin contains 2.4 oz. of product. Cons: - Takes a little longer to apply. It's not always convenient/easy to get the product out of the tin. - If you're not used to the sticky sensation, it could throw you off. - You can get gunk inside the tin, which can be annoying to get out. In contrast, a bottle that's more sealed off wouldn't have this issue. - The tins are wrapped in a thin bit of plastic, so it's not a totally one-time-use plastic free experience.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this clear zinc really clear, or is it still whitening? Is 'clear zinc oxide' nano or non-nano zinc oxide?**
A: All mineral sunscreens can be somewhat whitening, but clear zinc is definitely less whitening and it disappears as you rub it in. Badger sunscreens do not contain any free nanoparticles.

**Q: Can I use this sunscreen on my baby / toddler / kid / child?**
A: Yes. The only difference is that Badger's Kids Sunscreen has a tangerine & vanilla scent, and the Baby Sunscreen has a chamomile & calendula scent. This sunscreen is unscented and works great on people of all ages.

**Q: Is this sunscreen gluten free / non-comedogenic / hypoallergenic?**
A: Yes. All Badger sunscreens are Gluten Free. This product is also Non-Comedogenic (won't clog pores) and Hypoallergenic (great for sensitive skin).

**Q: What are all the ingredients? Is the zinc oxide non-nano?**
A: Just 4 ingredients: mineral zinc oxide, organic sunflower oil, organic beeswax, vitamin e. The zinc oxide is large particle clear non-nano and won't be absorbed into your body. There are no nano particles in Badger sunscreens.

**Q: What is the difference between the tin and the tube sunscreens? What about the SPF 50 vs. SPF 40?**
A: They all have the same ingredients. The tinned sunscreens start out a little bit thicker but easily melt when you rub them in your hands and are easy to apply. The SPF 50 sunscreen has a little more zinc oxide than the SPF 40, both are unscented.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding protection, like rain-x for your skin
*by C***E on April 12, 2026*

I bought this for a trip to Jamaica and got zero sunburn with a single application per day. The sunscreen is quite thick; you need to be patient with application and rub it all the way in. But if you do, you will walk past all the scorched people at the resort knowing you bought and used the correct sunscreen.
