Why we stand behind it
This zinc-oxide only sunscreen is safe for the whole family. With 20% non-nano zinc oxide for maximum protection, you can wear it everyday from morning to night.
Its coverage has a non-greasy featherlight texture that sets to a natural demi-matte finish and has been designed as a light layer to wear over your face oil. It provides sheer to light coverage and diffuses redness.
Key ingredients
Non-nano zinc oxide: Very photostable and provides broad spectrum sun protection, reflecting UV rays rather than absorbing them.
Red raspberry seed oil: Helps prevent sun damage naturally and has the potential to act as a broad-spectrum UV shield due to its high anthocyanin content. Superior anti-inflammatory properties help prevent rashes, eczema and other skin lesions.
Green tea infusion: Imparts extra sun protection and rejuvenating benefits, thanks to high levels of polyphenols and catechins.
Sea buckthorn oil: A carotenoid rich oil that contains more vitamin C than an orange, more vitamin A than a carrot, and powerful anti-oxidant super oxide dismutase, which provides protection against free radical damage at the cellular level.

Usage
Shake well. Apply liberally to face/neck/chest 15 minutes before sun exposure, applying Protective Day Oil prior is highly recommended. Reapply at least every 2 hours. Use a water-resistant sunscreen if swimming or sweating.
If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a physician. For children under 6 months of age, consult a physician. Keep in a cool, dry place, out of direct light. Use within 6 months of opening.
Pro-tip
For best results, apply over a face oil. Warm it in your palm and smooth on to the skin in a thin layer. Skin should still be slightly damp from oil and no need to wait for layers to dry. Should you be between tints, different tints may be mixed in your hand before applying.
