Description

Zinc Oxide is derived from the mineral zincite, which is processed to extract the zinc. This mineral is then oxidized to produce Zinc Oxide. The resulting Zinc Oxide is used in various formulations, including sunscreens and skincare products, due to its protective and beneficial properties.
We use a high-quality Zinc Oxide filter derived from natural sources for our SPF. This natural composition ensures broad-spectrum UV protection, effectively blocking both UVA and UVB rays. It provides excellent skin coverage and protection.
