SkinCeuticals’ sunblocks provide true broad-spectrum uva/uvb protection. This revolutionary line contains z-cote®, transparent zinc oxide, which protects skin from the damaging uva rays proven to be responsible for premature signs of aging, unlike the pasty white zinc oxide sunscreens of the past, SkinCeuticals sunblocks are cosmetically elegant and all-encapsulated, which means increased protection using fewer sunscreen ingredients, reducing the chances of irritation.
