Excellent for facial use and may be applied to reduce blemishes and blend sunspots. The Shield Factor Organic Sunscreen SPF 31 Tinted is easy to apply at all temperatures and blends with skin tones, eliminating the cool chalkiness that mineral sunscreens may impart.
The Shield factor Organic Sunscreen SPF 31 Tinted is healthy, highly effective and safe for children and adults of all ages. This unique formula is broad spectrum and effective for protecting your skin from both UVA and UVB radiation. You can use it daily and be confident that it's free of harmful petrochemicals that are known to bioaccumulate.
Zinc oxide is a better sunscreen active ingredient than titanium dioxide and the only one MARAKI uses for the following reasons:
- Zinc oxide is the most effective UV absorber across the entire UVA and UVB spectrum.
- Zinc oxide is made from the critical mineral nutrient zinc instead of the toxic heavy metal, titanium.
- Zinc oxide holds tight to its electrons when it absorbs UV energy and limits the creation of free radicals that do damage and increase the risk of skin cancer.
- Zinc oxide is the sole sunscreen active ingredient approved for use on children by FDA.
- The zinc oxide MARAKI uses is non-nano, and not-micronized; there are zero zinc oxide nanoparticles in our formulas.
The Shield Factor is fragrance-free, gluten -free, corn-free, chemical-free and vegan.
