Our new & improved formula... & more of it!

Now available in two shades.

Tuff Stuff really is, the toughest stuff. Designed for outdoor enthusiasts who face the harshest environmental conditions, our zinc covering cream is your reef-friendly skincare solution.

This formula uses natural, plant-derived, and nature-identical ingredients. It is broad spectrum and water resistant to keep your skin protected and hydrated during any land or water-based activity. Compared to lighter everyday sunscreens, Tuff Stuff is a thicker formula and will not rub off with sweat or drip into your eyes while swimming.

Tuff Stuff offers the type of coverage you need for activities such as surfing, boating, hiking, working outside, or for those long days relaxing at the beach.  

SAND: best for lighter skin tones

COCOA: best for medium to dark skin tones

Our covering cream is tinted so you don't have to worry about looking like a 1980s lifeguard. As it is a "lifestyle" product -not a beauty product - the goal of Tuff Stuff is to provide dependable coverage, not to perfectly match your skin. The tint does contribute to a more blended and less obvious look on the skin and as Green Room expands, it is our goal to make more tones so that everyone can wear it as subtly as possible. Regardless of skin colour, rest assured that a solid white nose is a thing of the past.

Zinc oxide, a mineral UV blocker, is the most reef-friendly ingredient in comparison to other UV blockers such as Oxybenzone, Octinoxate, ButylParaben, and 4-methylbenzylidine camphor. The metal tin is our choice of sustainable packaging as it can either be re-used indefinitely or completely recycled without any loss in material.

Big shoutout to the girls at Surf Sister in Tofino for their help in developing the concept! Those girls are on the beach and in the water all day long!

Directions

Apply to face and lips with clean, dry fingers. Blend in to create a Tuff Stuff base and continue to layer for more coverage. For water sports especially, best practice is to have a visible thick layer on the high points of your face. Reapply after being in the water or every 2 hours. Remove with a gentle cleanser or an oil-based product (For Your Face works!).
