You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

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.

This ingredient is organic, colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.
Glycerin is the name for this ingredient in American English. British English uses Glycerol/Glycerine.

I have no issues with this sunscreen! I don't find it drying or irritating. I see other people saying it makes there skin matte but I haven't noticed that on me, maybe a slightly satin finish (probably because I hydrate my skin heavily underneath). I have brown skin and it doesn't give me a white cast, it does give me a white line on my eyelids but after Show more
it's matte sunscreen, it makes my skin not very oily when I'm outside and the weather is very hot.
