product description
Skin’s most stellar safeguards unite in our ultrasmooth, superclean mineral sunscreen. Powered by non-nano zinc oxide and spiked with a bright shot of vitamin C, this suncare-meets-skincare staple teams broad-spectrum SPF30 protection with a nourishing antioxidant blend to nurture skin while defending against the dark side of sun exposure.
Zinc oxide is the ultimate beauty bodyguard, disarming both UVA and UVB rays—the skin saboteurs behind sunburn and photodamage. While blatant UVB is to blame for sunburn, it’s 365 days of UVA radiation that fast-tracks signs of premature aging. Neither cloud cover nor windows stop this sneaky age accelerator, which penetrates skin to cause wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, dryness, and loss of firmness over time. Unlike chemical filters, zinc disrupts this daily damage with natural physical protection, and it’s as easy on sea life as it is on sensitive complexions. But this gentle reef-respecting formula doesn’t stop at mineral defense.
To create a sunscreen worthy of 365-daily wear, we’ve stacked our SPF with sun-smart sidekicks prized for their own solar flair. And with its ability to fend off free radicals while showing dullness and dark spots the door, there’s no better SPF BFF than vitamin C. Pairing this beloved antioxidant with zinc can be a tricky task but our blend enables these protective powerhouses to coexist without the use of silicones or other shady additives. To soothe and replenish sun-stressed skin, we’ve added a splash of sustainable biodesigned vegan marine collagen, which arms against pollution as it targets UV-induced wrinkling and elasticity loss. Antioxidant-rich squalane and cucumber ease oxidative stress and do their part to help condition, calm, and cool skin. Free of added fragrance, this silky lightweight formula glides on and blends in evenly, leaving skin feeling supple before drying to a sheer satin finish—ensuring the only thing shining is the sun.
