Award-winning hospitality group Banyan Tree launches its first sun care range, adding to its newly reformulated line of bath and body products. The Coconut and Seaweed collection, featuring its namesake ingredients, is specially formulated for tropical climates, designed to soothe and protect the skin before and after sun exposure.

The Coconut and Seaweed collection consists of five products with its initial launch, with the highlight being an oxybenzone-free sunscreen lotion. Graded SPF 50 and PA++, it shields skin from both UVA and UVB rays. The other products in the collection include a shower gel, body scrub, body gel and body oil.

The coconut, well-loved for its wide-ranging benefits and aromatic fragrance, is fast-becoming the wellness sector’s favourite tropical fruit. All five products from the collection feature organic cold-pressed virgin coconut oil as a key ingredient, with desiccated coconut and coconut shell serving as natural exfoliators in the body scrub. The nutrient-rich fruit, along with the extract of Jania Rubens, a type of red seaweed prized for its ultra-moisturising and restorative properties, combine to provide nature’s best for a day of fun in the sun.

The introduction of the oxybenzone-free Coconut and Seaweed Sunscreen reaffirms Banyan Tree’s reputation as a socially and environmentally conscious business. Oxybenzone, a chemical that blocks the effects of the sun from the skin, has been found to contribute to coral reef bleaching and has recently been banned by the state of Hawaii in an effort to protect its oceans. With 40 beach resorts around the world and three marine laboratories across its properties, Banyan Tree actively engages in marine conservation through coral reef planting and turtle conservation initiatives.

Banyan Tree’s Coconut and Seaweed collection has a 97.5% average of natural ingredients, with both the Coconut and Seaweed Body Scrub and the Coconut and Seaweed Body Oil being 100% natural. This reinforces the hotel group’s commitment to inspire a lifestyle interwoven with wellness, with products that are both good for the earth and the community. Along with the rest of Banyan Tree’s reformulated products, the Coconut and Seaweed collection is free from parabens, sulfates and colouring agents. On top of that, the collection is also free from artificial fragrance, being naturally scented with peppermint essential oil.
