Thinksport Sunscreen & Sun Care

Thinksport built its reputation on one idea: sun protection shouldn't come with a chemical trade-off. Every product in this collection is made without the ingredients families worry about most — no oxybenzone, avobenzone, parabens, phthalates, or BPA — while still delivering the broad-spectrum, water-resistant coverage active people actually need on the trail, the field, or the water.

The centerpiece is Thinksport Safe Sunscreen SPF 50+ (6 oz), a mineral-based formula that earned one of the top ratings from the Environmental Working Group and was among the first sunscreens to pass Whole Foods' premium care requirements. It uses non-nano zinc oxide to physically block UVA and UVB rays rather than absorbing them into the skin, and holds up for 80 minutes of water resistance — the reason it's a go-to for swimmers, runners, and endurance athletes.

If you're new to mineral sunscreen, a few things are worth knowing. Because it sits on top of the skin, you'll want to rub it in fully and reapply after heavy sweating or every two hours of sun exposure. The SPF 50+ rating means it filters roughly 98% of UVB rays, and unlike chemical sunscreens, it starts working the moment it's applied — no waiting 20 minutes before heading outside. Its reef-conscious formulation also makes it a sensible choice for beach days and ocean sports where oxybenzone-based products fall short.

Thinksport is a solid pick for sensitive skin, kids who are hard on their sunscreen, and anyone reading labels more carefully than they used to. To round out your warm-weather and outdoor supplies, explore our broader Skin Care selection, or browse everything at Honest Medical.
