Are you still putting chemical sunscreen on your face and in the sea? Do you call yourself a sea-lover? Have you just watched Seaspiracy and only now realized that the oceans are not loving us humans at the moment? Get with the program hypocrites!

If you don’t know about them already Irish core lords Co Saint have been making reef-safe sunscreen right here on our green shores of Ireland for the past year and in the word of the great Tina Turnoff, “it’s simply the best, better than all the rest”.

Made with premium antioxidant cold-pressed organic oils, beeswax and using only non-nano zinc (which keeps the ocean happy) Co Saint sunscreen stays on for hours-lasting longer than Ron Jeremy.

So I had to sit down and have a little powwow with the boys at Co Saint. I started by asking to them where they got the name. “It’s from the Irish word cosaint which means defense and protection, our mineral sunscreen is made to obviously defend the face from burning, but being eco-conscious with our product is also hugely important for us. We wanted to create something that works really well but at the same time it had to be reef-safe with no nasty chemicals like oxybenzones and octinoxates which are already banned in some countries such as Hawaii. All our containers and delivery packages are plastic free as well.”

Where can Irish core surfers get their hands on this eco-friendly mineral sunscreen for your white Irish faces?

“At the moment we have our new website http://www.cosaintsunscreen.com up and running and we also have our product in a few core surf shops and cafes abs well as some select surf schools “

Sweet! All the best with your start up lads! Keep it core!

  1. I’ve actually been using this stuff for the last year and it’s really good. Fair play to them! Good to see an Irish company doing it, and the natural way too,
