Sahara Tint
SUNMUD recommends the Sahara shade for people with golden or olive undertones. The tint helps reduce the noticeable white cast often associated with traditional zinc sunscreen while giving the face a more natural-looking finish.
More Sustainable Packaging
SUNMUD packages its Sports Stick in a non-laminated cardboard tube rather than a traditional plastic sunscreen container. The packaging is lightweight and compostable, making it a more environmentally conscious option for everyday sun protection.
