Dr. Squatch Expands to the Sun Care Category
Dr. Squatch — a popular natural men's personal care brand in the United States — has entered the sun care category with a new product called Spray Sunscreen. This mineral-based SPF 30 formula was built with over 98% natural origin ingredients.
Dr. Squatch's sunscreen uses zinc oxide as its active ingredient to provide broad−spectrum UVA and UVB protection. Upon application, the formula is said to be "sitting on top of the skin rather than being absorbed." The Spray Sunscreen
includes skin−supporting ingredients such as vitamin E and coconut alkanes. The product is offered in two scents, as well — the tropical-forward Coconut Castaway and the warmly elevated Amber Solstice fragrance.
The spray format is designed for quick, even application, and Dr. Squatch maintains that the product is lightweight and non-greasy.
