Sun Defense – Glow Guardian (Face Oil, Body Oil, Body Butter)

We make UPF50+ umbrellas and rain gear. We block the sun and the rain from the outside. But physics is a relentless antagonist, and UV rays bounce off concrete, water, and the glass windows of your office building. Plus, you can't carry an umbrella to the beach without looking like a Victorian ghost. You need a second line of defense.

That's where Garner's Garden comes in. We handle the sky; they handle the skin. They make it, they ship it, we just gave them a storefront and a voice.

We brought them on because their Sun Defense line is built around zinc oxide and plant-derived oils — the kind of ingredients people have used for sun care for a long time, without the "smells like a chemistry lab" problem. The zinc oxide sits on the skin and reflects. The raspberry seed, carrot seed, hempseed, and sweet almond oils do the "your skin also deserves to feel like skin" part.

Is this a replacement for staying under our Bastion umbrella all day? No. We said what we said. But for the daily commute, the errand run, the "I'm just going to sit outside" afternoon? This is the one that lives in your bag next to your Foldaway hat. That's the whole value proposition.

What's in the lineup:

• 4oz Sun Defense Body Oil — Sweet almond oil + zinc oxide. For arms, legs, shoulders, the back of your neck you always forget.
• 2oz Sun Defense Face Oil — Hempseed, raspberry seed, carrot seed oils + zinc oxide. Lightweight. Layers under makeup or over bare skin.
• 5oz Sun Defense Body Butter — Zinc oxide + beeswax. The "I'm outside for a while and I refuse to reapply every two hours" option.
• Sun Defense Package — All three. For the person who committed to the bit.

Ingredient notes (because our lawyers insist we say "known for" a lot):

• Zinc oxide: a mineral ingredient traditionally used for broad-spectrum UV reflection
• Raspberry seed oil: historically used in natural sun care; rich in antioxidants
• Carrot seed oil: traditionally associated with skin rejuvenation and antioxidant support
• Hempseed oil: rich in omega fatty acids; supports the skin's moisture barrier
• Sweet almond oil: contains vitamins A and E; a classic emollient
• Reef-safe formulation. No synthetic chemical filters.

Sun Defense. Because your skin is the one character in your story that doesn't get a respawn.
