01The Story
Zinkit started on a reef break, after another bottle of drugstore sunscreen melted into the eyes on the first duck dive. A pharmacist and surf enthusiast, with one question: why is the stuff we trust with our skin so bad for the water we love? Zinkit is the answer, made by hand, one jar at a time.
Why Zinkit

Built by a pharmacist & surf enthusiast.
Tested in the lineup.

Only non-nano zinc oxide. No oxybenzone, no octinoxate, no synthetic filler. You get a visible mineral shield that reflects UV, resists salt water, and rinses off the reef, not into it.

Every batch is mixed by hand, because skin you surf with, and water you paddle through, deserve better than what a factory line can mix.

4hr

What's in the jar

Eight ingredients.
Nothing to hide.

We reworked the formula for a smoother glide and a richer feel on the skin, but the deal hasn't changed. No proprietary blend, no hidden actives. Read the label, know what you're putting on your skin, know what's going into the water.

The ritual

Three steps.
Full session.

Zinkit isn't lotion. Don't rub it in. The visible mask is the whole point. Layer it on, surf hard, wipe it off after.

01

Layer up

Fifteen minutes before paddling out, apply a thick, visible coat to nose, cheeks, and forehead. Don't blend it in. Zinkit works because you can see it.

02

Stay covered

It holds through duck dives and wipeouts. For sessions past two hours, top up for max protection against salt and sun.

03

Wipe, then wash

Built to stick, so it won't rinse off easy. Wipe the bulk with a cloth first, then follow with soap and warm water.
