Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Zinc Oxide is a mineral broad-spectrum UV filter; it is the broadest UVA and UVB reflector approved by the FDA. While it is most commonly man-made for cosmetics, it can naturally occur in zincite, a rare mineral.
Today, traditional and nano-sized zinc oxide can be found in beauty products. Nano-sized zinc oxide can enhance a product's UV protection. While it is not believed to have a negative effect on skin, nano-zinc oxide may be harmful to coral reefs - though the verdict is not entirely out on this one.
Zinc Oxide also has antibacterial and calming properties. It is not water soluble.
Zinc has been used throughout history as an ingredient in paint and medicine. An Indian text from 500BC is believed to list zinc oxide as a salve for open wound. The Ancient Greek physician Dioscorides has also mentioned the use of zinc as an ointment in 1AD.

Aveeno Protect + Soothe Face Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 26 ingredients
So far so good. I have eczema and pretty sensitive dry skin but it hasn’t broken me out or caused a flare up. The application isn’t as smooth as I thought it would be but it still applies well. It does leave a bit of a white cast but not as bad as most mineral sunscreens and it leaves a soft matte finish on the skin. I’m not sure if it would be the best for someone with fungal acne though.
