One of her favorite programs she teaches is Cooking with Kids, a family based nutrition program. “I have found that when families learn together, they’re much more likely to make those healthy behavior changes and be successful together.” Heather wants Simple to continue to be a staple for health and wellness in the community and move toward an overall wellness center. Simple Organics will have biweekly breastfeeding hours starting in October where new moms and expecting moms can come in, sip on some tea, and get breastfeeding support for free.

Product Details

Tired parents and hairy people, rejoice! A mineral sunscreen spray that isn’t sticky, greasy, smelly, or full of chemicals. All GoodSPF 30 Sport Mineral Sunscreen Spray is made from reef-friendly non–nano zinc oxide and botanical ingredients, now in a handy dandy spray.

Benefits of our SPF 30 Mineral Sport Sunscreen Spray

  • Protection from HEV (blue light) from video calls and screens
  • Continuous spray allows for easy application
  • Topical mineral sunscreen for face or body
  • UVA/UVB broad spectrum sun protection
  • Oxybenzone-free, made with only Reef Friendly ingredients
  • Water Resistant (80 minutes)

All Good SPF 30 Sport Mineral Sunscreen Spray is made from a reef-friendly blend of zinc oxide and botanical ingredients, and comes in a convenient “bag-on-valve” spray that uses compressed air instead of propellent chemicals. It’s not drippy, goes on dry, and doesn’t leave your skin chalky, white, or greasy. (Seriously, hairy people and parents of picky kids love this stuff – just read the reviews). This mineral sunscreen spray is a similar mineral formula as the Sport Sunscreen Lotion, so it’s super hydrating and easy to rub in thanks to a blend of organic coconut oil, jojoba oil, and shea butter.

Other organic ingredients like green tea, rose hips, and buriti oil actually repair damaged skin from sunburn and windburn. Since it’s a mineral-based sunscreen, you can expect full spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays and water-resistant protection for 80 minutes. The best part is a top that locks shut so you don’t accidentally spray it everywhere. Sanity in a spray bottle.

*Certified Organic Ingredients


Unlike conventional chemical sunscreens that are harmful to humans and marine life, All Good mineral sunscreen products are made with the active ingredient, zinc oxide. Zinc oxide is a topical, non-nanoparticle, mineral-based ingredient that sits on top of your skin and won’t absorb into your body; it is one of only two ingredients that has been FDA-approved for general recognition of safety and effectiveness (GRASE)*. All or our All Good reef-friendly suncare products meet broad-spectrum FDA standards and reef safe criteria. Our ingredients do not include chemical UV absorbers, parabens or harmful additives (and especially no octinoxate, oxybenzone, and the other chemicals in the “Awful Eight”).

*The FDA is asking for more safety data on 12 additional active sunscreen ingredients in order to determine whether they can be classified as GRASE. We’ll do our best to keep you informed as soon as we hear more!
