What Makes This Good Stuff
Kabana Bali Bloc SPF 30 Raw Cocoa Sunscreen Stick was created in response to customer requests for a very water resistant tinted sunscreen in a stick format. Bali Bloc is specifically optimized for people who participate in active aquatic sports such as surfing, kite boarding, whitewater, waterparks, snorkeling/SCUBA, and complies with the 80 Minute Immersion Very Water Resistant standard (click for the testing report). Bali Bloc is made with just four ingredients; which are 100% certified organic excluding the zinc oxide!
The formula is mocha tinted, due to the presence of raw certified organic cocoa powder, and has a delicious chocolate-coconut scent.
Bali Bloc is healthy, highly effective and safe for children and adults of all ages.
Bali Bloc is free of common allergens. It’s soy-free, gluten-free, corn-free and dairy-free. Please see the Ingredients tab above for a complete list of ingredients in the product.
It provides excellent Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB protection.

The average individual particle size of the Zinc Oxide USP we use is 0.260 micron (260nm) with Standard Deviation of 0.012 micron (12nm). This means that there are statistically zero particles smaller than 100nm, the cutoff for the nano classification. Most nano sunscreens on the market have particle sizes in the range of 10-20nm.
*Please note: the certified organic cocoa powder present in Bali Bloc may stain clothing.
What we particularly love about Kabana’s sunscreen is that it uses non-nano particles of zinc oxide that are also not micronized.
Kabana’s SPF testing data is available online (making them the only company to do so).
