Most of our customers gave up on sunscreen.

Nobody quit by accident.

The people who find us read labels. They looked up the words they couldn't pronounce and didn't like what they found.

The FDA had questions too.

In 2019 and 2020 the FDA ran its own studies. Six common chemical filters showed up in people's blood after a single use. The FDA asked the companies to prove they were safe. Years later, nobody has.

Hawaii banned two of them in 2021. Key West did the same.

So a lot of people just stopped.

That's most people who come looking for us. They gave it up entirely and figured they'd take their chances. We did too, for years.

So we made the third option.

We started making our own. It smells great, leaves no white cast, and feels good enough that we actually look forward to wearing it every day.

One step, every morning.

One jar, one step. Warm a pea-sized amount and press it into your face and neck. That's what it's built for, though plenty of people use it everywhere else. A jar lasts two to three months.

Turns out the trick is making something people actually want to put on.

Meet the founders

Still just the two of us.

Hey, we're Jon and Gabrielle. A few years ago we couldn't find a clean daily balm we trusted on our own skin, so Gabrielle started whipping her own in our kitchen from ingredients we could actually pronounce. Friends kept asking for jars, and Ritual Organics was born.

It's still just the two of us. We live on the North Shore of Oahu, spend most of our days outside, and read every review and answer every email ourselves. Thanks for being here.

Frequently asked questions

Will it leave a white cast?

Not when you rub it in. The non-nano zinc is whipped into the balm so it melts into skin instead of sitting on top. Work it in fully and you get the protection without the ghost face.

Will it break me out?

Tallow has a lipid profile close to human skin, which is why it tends to sit well even on acne-prone skin. Every ingredient in it is non-comedogenic.

If a tallow product has broken you out before, it was likely a heavier one. Ours is whipped, so a small amount spreads thin and absorbs instead of sitting on top.

Is it safe for my kids?

Six ingredients, no synthetic fragrance, no chemical UV filters, no preservatives. Plenty of parents in our community use it on their kids, faces included.

We're not doctors, so check with your pediatrician and patch test a small area first.

I react to regular sunscreen. Will this be different?

Possibly. Most reactions trace back to chemical UV filters, synthetic fragrance, or preservatives, and none of those are in here.

The full list is grass-fed beef tallow, organic jojoba oil, non-nano zinc oxide, organic vitamin E, organic rosehip oil, and organic lavender oil. Read it against whatever you've reacted to before, and patch test first.

Why does it cost more than a drugstore sunscreen?

Because of what's in it. Grass-fed, grass-finished tallow, certified organic oils, and non-nano zinc oxide cost several times what a drugstore base costs, and we whip it by hand in small batches.

Shipping is included rather than added at checkout. And a jar runs two to three months on your face and neck, which works out to roughly forty to sixty cents a day.

How long does a jar last?

The jar is 2 oz and a little goes a long way. On your face and neck daily, expect two to three months.

If you're covering larger areas like your arms and chest, closer to one to two months.

Is this for everyday wear or for the beach?

Everyday wear. Face and neck, every morning. Jon wears it for an hour and a half of surfing.

For a full day at peak sun on the beach, we'd still put a heavier sport product with a tested rating over the top of it. We'd rather tell you that than oversell this.

Does it work on deeper skin tones?

Mostly yes. Around nine in ten people who've told us about it have had no white cast, and a handful have.

Use a small amount, warm it between your fingers first, and build thin layers rather than one thick one. If it still doesn't disappear on your skin, email us inside 30 days and we'll refund you. You keep the jar.

Does it sting your eyes when you sweat?

No. There are no chemical UV filters, which are usually what makes conventional sunscreen burn. It's just grass-fed tallow, non-nano zinc, and organic oils.

What does it smell like?

Not like tallow, we promise. The scent comes entirely from organic lavender oil: soft, natural, and light. No synthetic fragrance, nothing perfumey, and it fades as it absorbs.

Is it reef-safe?

Yes. Non-nano zinc oxide is a mineral that sits on top of your skin, and there are no oxybenzone or octinoxate filters.

Who is it for?

All skin types, including sensitive skin and kids. Six ingredients, no synthetic fragrance, and no endocrine disruptors.
