A 100% mineral SPF with nourishing ingredients including Vitamin E. This SPF is free-from:: Fragrance [including essential oils & EU-allergens], Harsh Alcohols, Silicones, Organic/Chemical SPF filters, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin.
Always be sun smart! No matter your SPF preference, re-application is always necessary as well as protecting yourself with clothing and shade. Ears, scalps and feet are often neglected areas for sunscreen. Avoid peak hours depending on your geographic region. Have your moles checked regularly.
  • Apply directly onto skin, making sure to cover all areas that will be exposed to the sun evenly. Mineral UV filters are effective immediately upon application, however, it is recommended to wait 15 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply often, and especially after water exposure. This sunscreen is great as a daily SPF – apply as the last step in your skin care routine (over moisturiser and under make-up).
  • If you are using a lot of actives in your skincare, be extra careful in the sun; strong sun exposure is not recommended for those that have had a chemical peel.
  • Sunscreens, especially mineral ones, will always blend in better to well-prepped and exfoliated skin (just like makeup).
  • Can be blended with a spot of foundation if needed.
  • Zinc as SPF
  • Castor Oil (high concentration of ricinoleic acid–water-loving which makes Castor Oil distinguished from other oils)
  • Rosehip Oil (a #straålfave, brightening, nourishing, regenerating & full of antioxidants)
  • Avocado Oil (nourishing, rich in vitamin A,D and E; extraordinary skin penetration abilities, can nourish different skin layers)
  • Vitamin E
  • Contains Beeswax and is therefore not suitable for Vegans
  • Fungal Acne? This product contains fatty acids.


*SPF numbers indicate how long it will take for your skin to burn. How quickly your skin burns also depends on your skin type, your lifestyle and the intensity of the sun rays. An SPF 30, for example, means that if you usually burn in 10 minutes (fair skin), the sunscreen will provide protection for up to 30x longer before burning, and hence also before reapplication is required. An SPF 30 protects you against about 97% of UVB rays, whereas an SPF 50, provides about a 98% protection.
Zinc Oxide (Non-Nano) 22.8%

We adore this SPF due to its ultra nourishing plant fats highlighted above. It's really nice for extra nourishment in the winter.
