Coral reefs are among the most diverse and essential ecosystems on Earth. Often called the rainforests of the sea, they support more than 25% of all marine species, from tiny reef fish to large predators. These vibrant underwater habitats provide critical resources for people and the planet alike. They protect coastlines from storms and erosion, support tourism and fishing industries, and contribute significantly to marine biodiversity.
Traditional chemical sunscreens contain ingredients like oxybenzone and octinoxate that are harmful to coral reefs and marine organisms. These chemicals can contribute to coral bleaching and disrupt marine ecosystems when they wash off into the ocean. FRÉ’s mineral SPF, made with non-nano zinc oxide, offers a clean, safe alternative. This reef-safe ingredient sits on the skin’s surface, creating a physical barrier that reflects UVA and UVB rays. It does not absorb into your skin or into the ocean, making it a safe, effective, and eco-conscious choice for sun protection.
Despite their importance, coral reefs face unprecedented threats. Climate change, pollution, overfishing, and chemical sunscreens have all played a role in the decline of reef ecosystems. Nearly half of the world’s coral reefs have already been lost, and many more are at risk. Rising ocean temperatures cause coral bleaching, while pollutants and irresponsible tourism damage delicate reef structures. If left unchecked, these factors could result in the collapse of entire marine ecosystems.
At FRÉ, our commitment goes beyond skincare. We’re proud to donate 1% of every SPF purchase to support coral reef restoration through our partnership with Coral Gardeners. This organization leads cutting-edge efforts to plant resilient, heat-tolerant coral species, rebuilding degraded reefs and helping marine life thrive once again. Every purchase of FRÉ SPF directly contributes to a healthier ocean.
Coral Gardeners use a method called coral gardening to revive reefs. Fragments of resilient coral are grown in nurseries and later transplanted into damaged reef areas. These corals act as natural architects, creating structures where marine life can return, restore, and repopulate. Coral restoration not only improves biodiversity but also enhances the ocean’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide and buffer climate impacts.
FRÉ’s facial and body SPF products combine high-performance mineral protection with skin-loving ingredients like vitamin C and our exclusive Argania Active Complex. Lightweight and non-greasy, they’re ideal for daily use—whether you’re on a morning run, a beach day, or simply enjoying time outdoors. When you choose FRÉ, you get more than sun protection—you become part of an environmental solution.
Small everyday choices, like switching to a reef-safe SPF, add up to a powerful impact. By protecting your skin with FRÉ, you’re also helping protect marine biodiversity, restore fragile ecosystems, and support the health of our oceans for generations to come.
Healthy coral reefs are vital to life on Earth. They shelter marine creatures, sustain communities, and play a role in regulating our climate. Supporting their restoration is essential—not only for ocean life but for human life as well. By choosing FRÉ mineral SPF, you’re taking a stand for sustainability, environmental responsibility, and the future of our planet.
