It’s a sunscreen revolution.
Water doesn’t protect you from the sunshine. Normal sunscreens are made using 50-70% water (crazy huh!). So we decided to take the water out. This means Skinnies is better for the environment because we’re not wasting water and, because Skinnies isn’t diluted, the sunscreen acts like a concentrate staying on your skin, doing what it should, for longer.
