What can you take to the beach that’s eco-friendly and safer for you? Here’s our guide to the best green and eco-friendly products to take to the beach with you this summer! I present you the best beach guide handpicked by me out of dozens of products. Now let’s go to the beach and catch some waves!
1. Zinc Oxide Sunscreen by Elemental Herbs
Almost all the other ingredients are organic and it’s simply one of the best zinc oxide sunscreens I’ve seen. It has absolutely no other active ingredients (oxybenzone-free, titanium dioxide-free, etc). And they have organic sports sunscreen and organic baby and kids sunscreen. This sunscreen offers broad UVA/UVB protection with herbal benefits of skin rejuvenation. It is biodegradable and safe for kids’ skin.
2. Natural Lip Balm Sunscreen by Zambeezi
This lip balm is organic, and made with beewax. The only active ingredient is zinc oxide which also happens to be the only sunscreen ingredient that’s FDA approved for kids under 6 months of age.
3. 100% Natural Cotton Towels and Wipes by PopUp Towels
These towels are preservative-free, alcohol-free, anti bacterial-free and are natural! You can use and reuse the towels and wipes until their lifecycle is over.
4. Bear Naked Natural Trail Mix
There’s no hydrogenated oil, no artificial preservatives, no artificial flavors and no high fructose corn syrup. Bear Naked has a few other great products: all natural granola, all natural cereal, and they even teach you how to eat Bear Naked.
5. Reusable Lunch Box by Easy Lunch Boxes
Pack your lunch, sandwich, fruits, veggies all in this box. And you can do it safely because it’s non-toxic, BPA-free, PVC-free and phthalate-free. It’s also microwave, refrigerator and freezer safe. On top of that they also have an insulated bag that helps keep your food cold or warm and goes with the reusable lunch box!
6. Paper Feet Recycled Billboard Shoes
They’re truly perfect for the beach and also for all the girls after going for a night out. They have mens beach shoes, womens beach shoes and kids beach shoes, all with a different color. I loved wearing them and hope they can make it even better in the next batch!
