Only the purest ingredients for your most radiant summer glow yet.
What makes HEY SUN different?
Instead of filters that penetrate the bloodstream and often act as endocrine disruptors, HEY SUN works by safely reflecting rays away from the surface. Thanks to the stability of beef tallow, it does not oxidize in the sun and maintains its integrity. FREE OF: water, parabens, titanium dioxide, and unnecessary fillers.
- For all sunny adventures: Whether you are conquering mountain peaks, cycling through the woods, or wandering city streets—HEY SUN protects your skin in any condition where the sun is your companion. The gentle formula is a safe choice for children from 6 months of age onwards and for anyone with sensitive skin.
- Attention! It might become your favorite "daily SPF" for your face: It doesn't behave like a typical sunscreen. Because tallow won't clog pores and zinc naturally soothes the skin, it makes an excellent balm for daily use—not just at the beach.
- Supports recovery: Skin gets tired and dried out under strong sunlight, which is why we developed a formula that softens the skin and supports its natural recovery while exposed to the sun.
- 100% natural freedom: Free of synthetic perfumes, endocrine disruptors, or chemical filters. Just the pure power of nature that softens and soothes the skin with every application.
- Safe for mermaids and coral reefs: Free of oxybenzone and other toxins that harm your body and our oceans. HEY SUN is completely biodegradable and friendly to nature.
- Freshness from small batches: Every single jar is hand-filled in Slovenia using our own custom recipe, ensuring your new sun balm is always as fresh as possible.
- SPF 30 and UVA 31.5: Conventional creams and balms only offer a UVA protection that is 1/3 of their SPF. But what does UVA mean? These are the rays responsible for skin aging, meaning that with HEY SUN, your skin will be exceptionally well-protected from sun-induced aging.
What did Divja Žena (Wild Woman) toss into the cauldron?
In this jar, every single ingredient plays its part, bringing only the best of nature deep into your skin. No fillers, no water—just 100% active power:
- Beef Tallow: The biological "twin" of your sebum. The skin recognizes it as its own, meaning it deeply nourishes without clogging pores. Packed with vitamins A, D, E, and K.
- Non-nano Zinc Oxide: Natural mineral protection with an SPF 30 factor. It stays on the skin's surface and reflects UV rays without penetrating your bloodstream. Works instantly!
- Mango Butter & Apricot Kernel Oil: Provide a silky feel, deep hydration, and accelerate the regeneration of skin tired out by sun, wind, and salt.
- Olive Oil: An ancient "Dalmatian" secret for suppleness, elasticity, and potent antioxidant protection.
- Carrot Seed Oil & Calendula: Intensive support during sun exposure that soothes the skin and helps it maintain a healthy appearance.
- Beeswax: Ensures the stability of the balm and creates a gentle, water-repellent layer that protects the skin from drying out.
- Natural Vitamin E (Tocopherol): While you enjoy the sun, Vitamin E neutralizes the free radicals generated by UV rays. At the same time, it ensures that your precious cold-pressed oils in the jar stay fresh and full of potency for longer.
- Lavender Essential Oil: Regenerates the skin and provides that soothing scent that embraces you with every application.

Sun Ritual & Safety
A safe and gentle choice for all skin types, even the most sensitive. Feel free to use it on your youngest ones from 6 months of age onwards.
Application: Apply the balm to your face and body before heading out into the sun. Because it contains no water or fillers, it is extremely concentrated—remember that a little goes a long way. Upon contact with the warmth of your skin, it will instantly soften and spread evenly. To maintain optimal protection, reapply after swimming, heavy sweating, or towel drying.
Storage: Store in a dry, dark place out of reach of children. Do not leave the balm in direct sunlight; although the saturated fats in tallow are exceptionally stable and do not oxidize, they will soften in high heat.
WARNING: Even though the mineral filter safely protects you, avoid the intense midday sun. The balm is intended for external use only. Since it is made of 100% natural ingredients, we recommend a patch test on a small area of skin before the first use.
Please note: Temperature fluctuations may cause small crystals or grains to appear. If this happens, there is absolutely nothing wrong with your balm—it is simply a natural process.
Which size do I choose?
The question of all questions! Divja Žena’s answer is simple: "It entirely depends on how much you apply and who else you pamper with the balm."
Because HEY SUN is a 100% active balm without water or fillers, you use significantly less of it compared to conventional creams. A little balm truly goes a very long way, especially since it immediately melts like butter upon contact with the warmth of your skin.
- 120 ml jar: This is the largest "dose" of Divja Žena. It provides approximately 10–12 rich, full-body applications. It is the ideal choice for a carefree week by the sea. However, if the whole "herd" is going to use it (your partner, the kids, and maybe even the neighbor under the umbrella), then you’d better grab at least two jars.
- 30 ml jar: Your ideal companion in a backpack for mountain adventures, cycling, or daily protection for your face and hands. Small but mighty—just right to always have on hand when the sun suddenly peeks out from behind the clouds.
Divja Žena (Wild Woman) Wisdom
"When the sun in the sky is shining high,
The whole herd can let out a peaceful sigh.
Apply HEY SUN quickly to your skin,
And let your summer adventure begin!
But if a radiant, golden tan is your goal,
WILD TAN is the balm that will touch your soul.
To lie like a king or queen in the golden glow,
With the ultimate duo, summer sweetness will show."
