Protect your complexion from the sun’s damaging rays with The Ordinary Mineral UV Filters SPF 30 with Antioxidants, a nourishing sunscreen that hydrates your skin with anti-irritant support from the calming Tasmanian pepperberry
The innovative mineral suntan lotion protects your skin from the harmful effects of UV exposure by neutralising free radicals, which can cause damage that ranges from premature ageing to more serious skin conditions.
Avoiding the use of nano-particles that have the ability to penetrate the skin, The Ordinary has dispersed micronized Zinc Oxide and Titanium Oxide in flexible, high volatility, non-comedogenic silicones that allow the protective sunscreen to remain lightweight on the skin without clogging up pores. Combined, with Zinc Oxide is known for its protective qualities; it reflects and refracts light and is also able to absorb UV rays without creating damaging oxygen radicals.
The addition of a moisturising bio-sugar complex offers the skin hydration as well as increasing the skin’s own capacity to hold water, while lipids within the sunscreen help restore the skin’s barrier and keep it nourished.
Why We Love It
Mineral UV Filters SPF 30 is the ideal sun protection product, which can be worn on its own or underneath makeup, as the soothing and hydrating formula creates a perfect base that won’t interfere with complexion makeup. Despite being thick in texture, this sunscreen is incredibly lightweight when applied and absorbs into the skin almost instantly. And, you won’t notice it’s natural neutral scent, which isn’t overpowering one bit.
How To Use It
Apply to the face 15-20 minutes before sun and UV exposure, ensuring it is distributed evenly all over the skin. To maintain protection, ensure to reapply at least every two hours, and make sure to reapply after water exposure, such as towel drying, swimming or extensive perspiration.
Works Well With
If you’re looking for a slightly less powerful sunscreen, then why not try another formula The Ordinary Suncare collection? For more hydrating and nourishing UV filter formulas that would be good for daily wear that isn’t too exposed to the sun’s UV rays.
