Cove was created for people who want sun protection that feels like part of their beach day, not something they have to force themselves to use. The formulas melt into your skin, don’t leave behind chalky residue, and stay gentle even on days when your skin feels moody. It’s sunscreen that behaves like skincare.

Yes. Every formula is made without oxybenzone, octinoxate, and any other ingredients known to harm coral reefs. If you’re swimming, snorkeling, surfing, or just lounging by the water, your SPF won’t disturb the ocean life around you.

You can. Our formulas are made to be face-friendly—lightweight, blendable, and comfortable under makeup. If you prefer one sunscreen for everything, Cove works beautifully for both face and body.

No. Our mineral formulas were designed to disappear into all skin tones, and they blend in fully without the grey, chalky finish most mineral SPFs are known for.

Yes. The ingredient lists are intentionally minimal and avoid common irritants. People with sensitive, reactive, or acne-prone skin tend to love how calm and breathable the textures feel.

Every product is vegan, and nothing is ever tested on animals.

Yes, Cove is water-resistant. For the best protection, make sure to reapply every two hours and immediately after swimming, sweating, or towel-drying.

Yes—because sunscreen filters weaken over time. You’ll find an expiration date on each product. If you’re using it regularly, you’ll probably finish it long before that date.

Most dermatologists consider mineral sunscreens a great option during pregnancy. If you have specific concerns, we always recommend checking with your doctor—they know your skin and your medical history best.

Absolutely. Our formulas are gentle and mineral-based, making them suitable for the whole family. For babies under six months, always check with a pediatrician first.

Dermatologists recommend every two hours, and sooner after you swim, sweat, or dry off with a towel.

Yes. The texture is smooth and light, so foundation, blush, and highlighter sit beautifully on top without pilling or slipping.

Yes. UVA rays—responsible for premature aging—can pass through windows. If you’re near natural light or working by a window, you’re still getting exposure.

You do. Up to 80% of UV rays can pass through clouds, which is why people often burn without realizing it. Daily protection is the key to long-term skin health.

For your face, think two finger-lengths of sunscreen. For your body, a full shot-glass amount is the rule many dermatologists follow.

Keep it in a cool place away from direct sunlight. Heat can break down active ingredients, especially in mineral formulas.
