Our Story  ·  Made in Los Angeles

We were tired of
sunscreen that
didn't deserve you.

So we built something better from scratch. Ten clean ingredients. Mineral SPF 50. Made in small batches in our own lab. Nothing your skin doesn't need. Everything it does.

Where it started

Most sunscreen is full of things your skin didn't ask for.

Oxybenzone. Avobenzone. Octinoxate. Names you can't pronounce, sitting on your skin all day, every day. The conventional sunscreen industry spent decades making SPF as complicated, chemical-heavy, and opaque as possible. And for a long time, most of us just accepted it.

Alex Tannenbaum didn't. He started asking the questions the big brands couldn't answer honestly: What is actually in this? Does all of it need to be here? What would it look like to start from scratch, with zero compromises?

The answer became Creamed.

The founder

One person.
One obsession.

Alex Tannenbaum didn't come from the beauty industry. He came from a place of frustration, a refusal to settle, and a stubborn belief that ten great ingredients beat a hundred mediocre ones.

After testing over 200 formulations in his own lab, he built the sunscreen he'd spent years looking for. Then he decided everyone deserved it too.

The formulator who wouldn't stop until it was right.

Alex spent years working across technology and consumer products before turning his obsessive attention to detail toward skincare. He wanted a sunscreen he could actually read the label of, something that treated people like adults who deserved the truth about what was in the bottle.

When he couldn't find one that met his standards, he started building it himself. He sourced the ingredients, ran the numbers, and iterated through every formulation until he landed on something he was proud to put on his face every single morning. That formula is Creamed.

"I didn't want to build another sunscreen brand. I wanted to build the one I wished already existed."

The process

Small batches.
On purpose.

Creamed is manufactured in our own lab in small, carefully controlled batches. That isn't a marketing line. It's a production choice, and it changes everything about what you receive.

When you make in small batches, you can't hide behind volume. Every jar gets the same care. Every ingredient is weighed, combined, and verified by people who genuinely mean it.

We keep our runs small intentionally. Quality and scale are hard to hold together when your real priority is the formula, not the margin.

What we believe.

These aren't marketing promises. They're the standards we set before a single jar ever left the lab.

01
Transparency
You should be able to read every ingredient and know exactly why it's there. No proprietary blends. No trade secrets. Just honesty.
02
Mineral Only
Non-nano zinc oxide is the only UV filter in Creamed. It sits on the skin. It doesn't absorb into it. That's the standard, not a compromise.
03
Plant Based
Candelilla wax. Sunflower lecithin. Every ingredient is clean and plant-derived. Vegan always, cruelty-free always, reef safe always.
04
For Everyone
Built with the LGBTQ community and women in mind, blending seamlessly with every skin tone. Clean SPF without conditions or caveats.
Who Creamed is for

People who read labels.

Creamed was built for people who take what they put on their body seriously. Not in a preachy way. Just people who want to know what's in the bottle and feel genuinely good about the answer.

Whether you're rebuilding your routine, looking for SPF that won't break you out, or just done with the ingredient wall of shame on a drugstore bottle: this is for you.

  • You want mineral SPF that blends with every skin tone
  • You want ingredients you can actually understand
  • You want a daily moisturizer and SPF in one clean step
  • You're done with sunscreens that feel greasy or heavy
  • You want to support a small, founder-made brand with real standards

On every bottle

"If I wouldn't put it on my own face, it doesn't go in yours."
