Water Resistant Natural Sunscreen for swimming and the ocean

For any activity where you're actively sweating or swimming, choosing a natural sunscreen that is also water resistant is vital. Natural sunscreen forms a physical barrier on the skin and reflects harmful UVA & UVB rays. Unless your sunscreen is water resistant, at the first sign of sweating or swimming, it will wash off.

This water resistance is usually achieved by the use of beeswax, candelilla wax, or both. When you use a water resistant option, you will see the water bead on the skin and the sunscreen stays in place.
