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 can be harmful to coral reefs.

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.

This mineral sunscreen leaves a soft finish. It isn't as moisturizing as Round Lab's regular/chemical Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream, takes longer to settle in and leaves a slight white cast, as it often is with mineral sunscreens. It also doesn't wash off as easily as the other version, and reapplication isn't as smooth.
