When I’m surfing, I love looking like a ghost. Honestly, the thicker the zinc, the better — it’s visible proof that no sun is getting through. I’ll happily paddle out looking like a frosted donut if it means my skin’s protected.
But for daily wear? Not so much. No one wants to walk into Trader Joe’s looking like they’re about to compete in a lifeguard competition.
That’s why I created Field + Forge Daily Mineral Defense — a zinc-based sunscreen that you control.
You can let it melt in for a smooth, invisible finish (perfect for errands, yoga, or under makeup). Or, if you’re spending all day in the water or on the mountain, leave it on a little thicker — your own natural armor.

How to Apply It Right
Think of this like your skin’s favorite balm, not a lotion. Warm a small amount between your fingertips, then gently press or pat it into the skin.
When it warms, the buttery oils melt and blend beautifully — creating that signature no-cast finish.
If you rub too quickly, you’ll just move it around; when you let it warm and settle, your skin literally drinks it up.
Why Your Skin Will Love It
Every ingredient in Daily Mineral Defense was chosen with purpose:
-
🌿 Mango Butter — Deeply hydrating, softens skin, and gives a smooth, blurred texture without clogging pores.
-
✨ Jojoba Oil — Balances oil production and mimics your skin’s natural sebum — ideal for acne-prone or sensitive skin.
-
💧 Castor Oil — Moisturizing and barrier-supportive; keeps skin calm after long days in the elements.
-
☀️ Non-Nano Zinc Oxide — Broad-spectrum mineral protection that’s reef-safe, pregnancy-safe, and gentle on sensitive skin.
Together, they form a creamy, buildable sunscreen that actually nourishes while it protects — so your skin feels better after wearing it.
