UberZinc: moisturising sunscreen for ultimate sun protection
A luxurious sunscreen and hydrating moisturiser formulated with 21% pure zinc oxide for environmental protection against premature ageing linked to sun exposure. Pure green tea extract adds potent antioxidant properties. It is your number one anti-ageing product. Recommended for all skin types.
Physical vs chemical sunscreen
Zinc oxide sunblocks are termed physical sunscreens as they physically sit on top of the skin and reflect all UV light - both UVA and UVB to give natural broad-spectrum protection from burning, photo ageing and potential skin cancer.
Compare this to the common chemical absorbing sunscreens, which absorb into the skin-most of which are found in the bloodstream and liver hours later.
The following are examples of common chemical sunscreen ingredients to be avoided in many commercially available sunscreens:
Octyl methoxycinnamate
Butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane
Oxybenzone
Benzophenone
Unlike chemical sunscreens, Zinc oxide protects the skin from both UVB and ageing UVA rays - chemical sunscreens only protect against UVB rays.
