Oct 9, 2023

Summary

Bee Wild Outside, a refillable sunscreen designed for life on-the-go, has launched on Kickstarter and achieved crowdfunding success by surpassing its initial raise goal by over 120% in under 10 days. The sunscreen industry produces an estimated 110 million units of single-use plastic bottles each year in the United States, contributing to plastic pollution in landfills and oceans.

The founder, Alexandra Merlino, was inspired to create Bee Wild Outside after developing skin cancer despite utilizing protective clothing. The refillable sunscreen system features an aluminum container as a sustainable alternative to plastic bottles, allowing users to replenish their sunscreen as needed and reducing plastic waste. The sunscreen offers comprehensive protection against UVA and UVB rays, suits all skin types, and is designed for active individuals with its compact and lightweight container. Bee Wild Outside prioritizes transparency and sustainability by using safe, natural, and reef-friendly ingredients, with non-nano zinc oxide as the main active ingredient. The company aims to provide a sustainable sunscreen alternative without compromising on quality or convenience and encourages individuals to protect themselves from the sun while safeguarding the planet.
