Description
A mineral sunscreen agent that provides broad-spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB rays by forming a physical barrier on the skin's surface. It's particularly favored for sensitive skin formulations because it sits on top of the skin rather than being absorbed, making it less likely to cause irritation. This ingredient has an excellent safety profile and is commonly recommended by dermatologists for daily sun protection.
