Is there really a sunscreen out there designed for the serious sailor that offers complete protection and won’t sting when it gets in your eyes? Sure is. It’s called Z Blok sunscreen. This sunscreen offers 30 SPF, but won’t run and sting your eyes. That’s why athletes (like sailors) love wearing it. It was even named the official sunscreen for the 2012 Puma Ocean Racing Team in the Volvo Ocean Race.
Here’s What’s Great About It:
- 30 spf (uva/uvb rays)
- Contains a clear Zinc Oxide-gives protection without having the embarrassing all white nose
- Does Not contain Petrolium-based products that do sting eyes
It’s made for sailors Speaking of sailors here are some that have given testimonials:
- Erik Storck, US Sailing Team AlphaGraphics 49er Helm
- Kenny Read, PUMA Ocean Racing Skipper
- Robbie Haines, North Sails, San Diego, CA
- Joy Ruel, Sailor from Mattapoisett MA
Here’s Our Video Review of when we tested the product.
I need some of that. I purposely don’t put sunscreen near my eyes because of the burning it causes by then I get these weird looking sunburn marks around my eyes like I am wearing a very bright red mask. I haven’t seen this anywhere in stores, so I suppose I’ll be on Amazon tonight buying some. 🙂
Sunblock is one of the most important things we can bring along now days. Skin cancer is a bad thing to get and most cases can be avoided by just taking a few minutes to protect your skin. I really like the all white nose, it’s kind of retro 80’s! I guess I could go without it and try the Z Blok.
