Zinc Oxide (INCI); mineral / physical UV filter
Zinc oxide is a mineral (physical) sunscreen filter that sits on the surface of the skin and reflects and scatters both UVA and UVB rays, giving true broad-spectrum protection. Beyond sun defense, it is mildly soothing and antibacterial, which makes it one of the gentlest filters available.
