Highlights
Contains PEGContains animal-derivedContains fragranceContains EU-26 allergensContains essential oils
Formulation view O/W emulsion centered on Zinc Oxide as a physical sunscreen agent, combined with sunflower and shea oils for occlusive hydration. Uses fatty acid esters for stability, resulting in a heavier texture. Contains plant ferments and essential oils. Best for those needing high-moisture physical sun protection. Formulator's note: High Zinc Oxide concentration can feel chalky; the heavy oil phase balances this but may reduce breathability, requiring caution for oily skin types.
