Love the packaging, and the product is great. The serum is really smooth and the SPF is light and easy. I was out in the sun most of the day and didnt feel any burning. 

I have both the sunscreen and the moisturizer - both are great. The sunscreen in particular I have been using daily. Rubs in quickly, isn't oily and haven't had any performance issues (put it on before I got out for the day and haven't had to worry about reapplying).

I have been using Freaks of Nature SPF 30 sun protection and I love it. I love how it goes on, how it feels, and how it works. I've used it to protect my skin during intense all-day beach days. It doesn't make me look like a ghost like other mineral sunscreens, and it doesn't make my skin feel dry or greasy. I'm impressed, and this will be my sunscreen choice going forward.

If you’re like me and sometimes (okay, most of the time) skip out on using sunscreen, you’ll get why I wasn’t exactly reaching for these daily. But then Freaks of Nature by Kelly Slater showed up at my door, and I figured, if the GOAT of surfing is backing a sunscreen, it’s worth trying out. Here’s the lowdown.

Starting with the basics—the packaging is killer. Innovative, cool, and eye-catching. The color palette alone makes you want to throw it in your beach bag just to flex it. From a design perspective, it’s one of the best I’ve seen.

Now, let’s talk formulas. The daily sunscreen (SPF 30) surprised me. It’s a little stubborn at first and takes a minute to blend in, showing up a bit white before it disappears completely into the skin. Once it’s in, it’s clear, lightweight, and doesn’t leave that dreaded sticky feeling. The real test? A day at the beach—and it passed.

The sports sunscreen (SPF 50) also delivered. It’s got a similar consistency to the SPF 30, with that initial white cast that eventually fades with some rubbing in. But, it’s effective. Zero sunburn after a long day in the sun? I’ll take it.

The deep dive moisturizer is where it gets interesting. The texture is thick, almost like an oil-serum hybrid, and calling it a moisturizer feels like a stretch. This is more of a “seal everything in” step—oily, a little heavy, and definitely not one of those lightweight, sinks-right-in types. I used it as the last step in my skincare routine, and while it’s not my go-to texture (a bit greasy), it does its job at sealing in moisture.

One of the standout factors? The ingredients and the fact that these are ReefSafe products—you can tell that Kelly Slater and team put serious thought into making something that’s not just effective but responsible. It’s clear that these products were crafted with genuine care and expertise.

Overall, I’m into the innovation, design, and SPF power here. The moisturizer might be an acquired taste, but props for creating a line that aligns with eco-conscious values and delivers in the sun protection department.
