Broad-Spectrum Protection From a Single Mineral
Most sunscreen actives cover only a slice of the UV spectrum, so formulators combine several to reach true broad-spectrum coverage. Zinc oxide is the exception — it handles UVA and UVB on its own, which is why mineral sunscreens can be so short on the ingredient list. It also tends to suit reactive, post-procedure, and blemish-prone skin better than chemical filters, because it works at the surface rather than being absorbed.
The mineral options here include EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46, Alastin Skincare SilkSHIELD All Mineral Sunscreen, Alastin HydraTint Pro Mineral Sunscreen SPF 36, and EltaMD UV Active Broad-Spectrum SPF 50+. EltaMD and Alastin Skincare carry the deepest mineral ranges we stock.
Why do some zinc sunscreens leave a white cast?
Particle size and pigment. Micronized zinc and tinted formulas — including the tinted EltaMD and Alastin options above — reduce the cast considerably.
