Well, it's an honor to introduce this partnership, SunBum.

0:07.0

I've been using SunBum for years. We slather our fair-skinned eight-month-old in their

0:12.5

mineral sunscreen, and so when they reached out as fans of the show and inquired about partnering,

0:18.5

I said absolutely yes, it is a no-brainer. SunBum was founded in 2010.

0:24.4

They're born from the surf world. They're heavily invested in surf. Their products are

0:28.8

sulfate-free, cruelty-free, gluten-free, Hawaii Reef compliant with Act 104. Lots of great reasons

0:36.5

to trust SunBum as your skin care protection of choice,

0:40.5

especially if you have sensitivities or allergies. I've mainly just used their face stick

1:12.6

giving me kind of visual confirmation that I'm protected. And the other epic thing that they turned

1:17.6

me onto was the roll on applicator. I used to just use the normal squeeze bottle lotion for my arms

1:23.9

and legs, but no matter how well I would wipe off my hands, there was always some residual lotion when I would paddle out that would transfer to the deck of my board, and then I'd

1:31.6

have to be cognizant of that on the first couple of waves before it wears off. Well, say goodbye to

1:37.5

slippery hands. The roll-on applicator rolls on the perfect amount of sunblock without any need to

1:43.4

touch it with your hands.

1:45.2

Revolutionary. Thank you, Sunbum.
