Tinted Mineral Stick SPF50 · 12 g / 0.42 oz
★ ★ ★ ★ ★300+ 5-star reviews- •SPF 50, broad spectrum against UVA and UVB.
- •Mineral filters only, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, never chemical ones.
- •A soft tint that blends in rather than leaving a white cast.
- •A stick, so you can reapply over make-up without a mirror.
Mineral protection in a stick. Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide sit on the skin and turn UVA and UVB away, at SPF 50, with a soft tint from iron oxides so it blends in rather than leaving the chalky white cast mineral sunscreens are known for.
Rice bran, jojoba and cocoa butter carry the minerals and keep the stick gliding rather than dragging, with sea buckthorn and black cumin oils alongside them. No mirror needed, which is the point of a stick, and it goes over make-up.
