Frequently asked questions

Summer Mud is an organic SPF 50+ sunscreen specifically engineered for outdoor sports athletes. Unlike traditional lotions, it's a barrier-based mud formula made with beeswax, zinc oxide, and fuller's earth. It stays on through sweat, water, and friction for 10+ hours without reapplication.

Regular sunscreen is designed for beach lounging—it's meant to sink in and feel light. But for athletes doing high-intensity activities, it washes off quickly.Summer Mud is engineered differently: Barrier, not lotion: Beeswax creates a protective seal instead of sinking into skin Water resistant (10+ hours): Stays on through ocean swells, rain, and river crossings Rub resistant (4+ hours): Won't wipe off with towels, gear, or constant movement Breathable: Fuller's earth keeps it from clogging pores during intense activity

One application lasts:- 10+ hours of water resistance (tested in ocean conditions)- 4+ hours of rub resistance (without towel/gear friction)- Full SPF 50+ protection for the duration This means you apply it at sunrise and stay protected through a full day of activity. No reapplication needed for most sports.

No. Summer Mud is engineered to survive ocean conditions that destroy regular sunscreen: - Salt water: Won't dissolve like lotions- Constant submersion: Beeswax barrier seals out water- Wave action: Stays put even under aggressive water movement- Cold water: Doesn't thin out like chemical sunscreensAthletes report it stays on through full ocean sessions—surfing, swimming, diving, paddling. You won't need to reapply between sets.

Yes. Summer Mud was designed by an athlete who does multiple sports (8 years surfing, 500+ dives). It works for: Water sports: Surfing, swimming, diving, paddleboarding, kayaking, whitewater sports High-altitude sports: Mountain climbing, hiking, trail running (intense UV + wind) Land sports: Rock climbing, skateboarding, trail sports (sweat + sun) Other: Outdoor photography, expedition work, beach volleyball, any outdoor activity in intense sun The formula solves the same problem across all of them: suncare that doesn't fail under extreme conditions.
